J1939 & FMS SUPPORT AVAILABLE ON OBD DATA READING TRACKERS

27 June 2024

In today's rapidly evolving telematics and vehicle monitoring landscape, staying ahead of the curve is not just an advantage - it's essential. The integration of J1939 and FMS support into Teltonika OBD data reading trackers marks a significant leap forward in this field, one that promises to innovate the way our clients engage with their fleets.




IMPORTANCE OF J1939 AND FMS SUPPORT


For those unfamiliar, SAE J1939 is a standardised protocol used for communication and diagnostics among heavy-duty vehicles, while FMS (Fleet Management System) is a standardised interface for accessing vehicle data, particularly in commercial vehicles, such as EU brand trucks and lorries. Combining these two elements with OBD (On-Board Diagnostics) data reading trackers significantly enhances their capabilities.


The FMS reading is facilitated through an OBD to FMS adapter, providing additional flexibility to discreetly hide the OBD data reading device. This solution bridges the gap between traditional OBD data and the comprehensive data sets provided by the FMS standard. Customers can now access a wider range of vehicle information, including critical parameters, such as fuel consumption, engine performance, and vehicle health diagnostics.




WHAT IT MEANS FOR YOUR BUSINESS


Our latest upgrade offers a host of advantages aimed at amplifying your experience with Teltonika OBD data reading devices:


  • Extended compatibility - you can now use these OBD trackers with a wider range of vehicles, giving you flexibility and convenience in your operations.


  • Improved data insight - support for J1939 and FMS enables more detailed and accurate vehicle data, leading to better diagnostics, maintenance and overall fleet management.


  • Increased efficiency - with comprehensive support for heavy-duty vehicles, you can achieve greater operational efficiency and reduce vehicle downtime.


  • Compliance and safety - with J1939 and FMS support, our customers can ensure compliance with industry regulations and proactively address safety concerns, reducing risk and liability.


Overall, we believe this upgrade will significantly enhance the value we bring to you in the heavy vehicle sector, helping you to add value to your offering in the telematics market.
