Select connection option

Follow the instructions and select a connection option.
More detailed information on how to connect to the FMS interface and the digital tachograph can be found in the chapter: Connect the SPEDION cable loom.

CAUTION - Safety shutdown of the digital tachograph during remote download by several telematics devices

If several telematics devices want to perform a remote download from a digital tachograph, this can lead to a permanent and irreversible safety shutdown. The digital tachograph can then no longer be used.
A maximum of one telematics device may perform a remote download from a digital tachograph.

Requirements

Make sure that your tachograph is remote download-capable.
→ Further information: Digital tachographs
Make sure in advance whether your vehicle provides values via the FMS interface. If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer.

Installation of special cases

Please note that there may be special requirements for the installation of the TruckBox E in certain vehicle types.
In any case, make sure that you have read the Particularities FMS and, if necessary, prepare your vehicle according to these special requirements!
If the special features are not observed, the functionalities may be impaired and the vehicle will have to return to the workshop.

Purple cable

Determine whether the automatic driver log-in with driver card function is to be used in the SPEDION App. If this is the case, SPEDION recommends connecting the purple cable to D8 to ensure that the automatic log-in function works reliably.

For other important values, the purple cable on D8 serves as a secondary data source. SPEDION therefore recommends connecting the purple cable to D8, but it is not mandatory. For some vehicle types, the connection to D8 can only be realised with great effort and should therefore be considered.
