Major truck manufacturers
agreed to give third parties access to vehicle data. In January 2002 two more truck manufacturers joined the fms-standard group:
They have designed a common interface as an open standard which will be supported by these leading truck manufacturers. The FMS-interface is an optional interface of different truck manufacturers. Supported information is dependent upon vehicle equipment. For the full information set, additional Electronic Control Units (ECU) may be required. Please contact the manufacturer or your dealer. Please observe that a direct connection to the vehicles' internal CAN bus is unwanted by the manufacturers, and may have impact on warranty coverage! Please also see the Letter to European Institutes (PDF format). The FMS-interface of each manufacturer is the interface to internal CAN bus information described in the FMS-Standard description. If you connect to the FMS-interface you will be responsible not to disturb the function of the FMS-interface. For further information, please see the relevant SAE and ISO 11898 documents. The truck manufacturers have agreed to have as well a common connector for the FMS-interface / remote download from beginning of year 2009. Please contact the manufacturer or your dealer. In addition to the FMS-interface description the major truck and digital tachograph manufacturers have defined a secure and legal solution for the remote download of data from the digital tachograph. In the download area you find a description of the FMS-Standard, the description of the common connector and the first Beta-Version of the interface description of the “remote download” for digital tachographs. You need to register first to get your password for the access. There will be no fee for the access to the download area. The development of FMS-standard is now under the umbrella of ACEA. The name of the group is “Heavy Truck Electronic Interface Group” and meets regulary to discuss the needs of the FMS-standard.
