User manual
If interfacing the GPS-206 to a Garmin Nüvi PND the interface needs to be enabled in the GPS-206. This
is done by checking the Enable Garmin FMI checkbox as shown in Figure 25. The garmin FMI section is
located on the GPS tab.
If the Garmin FMI needs to be unlocked the Garmin FMI Password will also be required. Once the FMI
is unlocked the password does not need to be sent again even if the programming of the GPS-206
changes.
The Garmin FMI interface in the GPS-206 must be licensed. A password is required to unlock this
functionality. Please contact CES for a password. The IMEI of each GPS-206 to enable the FMI on is
required as the password is unique for each device.
There are no additional configuration parameters for the GPS-206 and the Garmin FMI.
2.7 GPS-208 Options
The Events options for the GPS-208 are discussed in this section. Currently GeoStatuses and SMS is not
supported. If this functionality is required please contact your CES Wireless sales representative or send
an e-mail to sales@ceswireless.com with your contact information and details of the installation.
2.7.1 Inputs
There are four inputs on the GPS-208. They are Inputs 1, 2, 3 and Ignition.
Input 1: Input 1 can send a packet when its state goes low, when it goes high, or for both state changes.
This input has an internal pull-up resistor, meaning that it is normally high, and only a Low (Ground)
needs to be applied or removed to obtain both ON or OFF states.
NOTE: Inputs 2 & 3 are different than input 1, in that they are normally Low, and must be pulled
High to obtain a change of state. A signal of 12 to 16 volts is considered a High. Removing this signal
constitutes a Low.
Input 2: Input 2 can send a packet when its state goes low, when it goes high, or for both state changes.
See note above.
NOTE: Depending upon programming, it is possible for the GPS-208 to send an Input 2 Low state
change event if a device reset occurs.
