Introduction
A codec is a device or computer program for encoding or decoding a digital data stream or signal. Codec is a portmanteau of coder-decoder.
A codec encodes a data stream or a signal for transmission and storage, possibly in encrypted form, and the decoder function reverses the encoding for playback or editing.

Codec 8
- AVL data packet
Because the smallest information amount that can be written is one bit, there can be some bits left unused when result is byte array. Any unused bits should be left blank.
Below table represents AVL data packet structure.

Number of data – number of encoded data (number of records). Codec ID is constant 08.
Data field length is the length of bytes [codec id, number of data 2]. Number of data 1 should always be equal to number of data 2 byte. CRC-16 is 4 bytes, but first two are zeroes and last two are CRC-16 calculated for [codec id, number of data 2] Minimum AVL packet size is 45 bytes (all IO elements disabled). Maximum AVL packet size for one record is 783 bytes.
Timestamp – difference, in milliseconds, between the current time and midnight, January 1, 1970 UTC
- Priority
Priority level (AVL packet priority) can be:
- Low Priority
- Module makes an additional record with an indication that the event was caused by an I/O element change (depending on Operands configuration).
- High Priority
- Module makes an additional record with High priority flag and sends event packet immediately to the server using GPRS.
- Panic Priority
- This priority triggers same actions as High priority, but if GPRS fails, it sends an AVL packet using SMS data if SMS data sending is enabled and the number is provided in SMS/Call Settings.
- GPS Element
X Longitude
Y Latitude1
Altitude In meters above sea level1
Angle In degrees, 0 is north, increasing clock-wise 1
Satellites Number of visible satellites1
Speed in km/h. 0x0000 if GPS data is invalid1
Longitude and latitude are integer values built from degrees, minutes, seconds and milliseconds by formula
d - Degrees
m - Minutes
s - Seconds
ms - Milliseconds
p - Precision (10000000)
If longitude is in west or latitude in south, multiply result by –1. To determine if the coordinate is negative, convert it to binary format and check the very first bit. If it is 0, coordinate is positive, if it is 1, coordinate is negative.
Example:
Received value: 20 9c ca 80 Converted to BIN: 00100000 10011100 11001010 10000000 first bit is 0, which means coordinate is positive Converted to DEC: 547146368 For more information see two‘s complement arithmetics.
- SENDING DATA OVER TCP/IP
First when module connects to server, module sends its IMEI. First comes short identifying number of bytes written and then goes IMEI as text (bytes).
For example IMEI 356307042441013 would be sent as 000f333536333037303432343431303133
First two bytes denote IMEI length. In this case 000F means, that IMEI is 15 bytes long.
After receiving IMEI, server should determine if it would accept data from this module. If yes server will reply to module 01 if not 00. Note that confirmation should be sent as binary packet. I.e. 1 byte 0x01 or 0x00.
Then module starts to send first AVL data packet. After server receives packet and parses it, server must report to module number of data received as integer (four bytes).
If sent data number and reported by server doesn’t match module resends sent data.
Example:
Module connects to server and sends IMEI:
000f333536333037303432343431303133
Server accepts the module:
01
Module sends data packet:
| AVL data packet header | AVL data array | CRC |
|---|---|---|
| Four zero bytes,
‘AVL data array’ length – 254 |
CodecId – 08,
NumberOfData – 2. (Encoded using continuous bit stream. Last byte padded to align to byte boundary) |
CRC of ‘AVL data array’ |
| 00000000000000FE | 0802...(data elements)...02 | 00008612 |
Server acknowledges data reception (2 data elements): 00000002
- SENDING DATA OVER UDP/IP
- UDP channel protocol
UDP channel is a transport layer protocol above UDP/IP to add reliability to plain UDP/IP using acknowledgment packets. The packet structure is as follows:
| UDP datagram | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| UDP channel packet x N | Example | 2 bytes | Packet length (excluding this field) in big ending byte order |
| Packet Id | 2 bytes | Packet id unique for this channel | |
| Not usable byte | 1 byte | Not usable byte | |
| Packet payload | m bytes | Data payload | |
| Not usable byte | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Data packet requiring acknowledgment |
Acknowledgment packet should have the same packet id as acknowledged data packet and empty data payload. Acknowledgement should be sent in binary format
| Acknowledgment packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| Packet length | 2 bytes | 0x0003 |
| Packet id | 2 bytes | same as in acknowledged packet |
| Not usable byte | 1 byte | 0x00 |
- Sending AVL data using UDP channel
AVL data are sent encapsulated in UDP channel packets (Data payload field).
| AVL data encapsulated in UDP channel packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| AVL packet id (1 byte) | Module IMEI | AVL data array |
AVL packet id (1 byte) – id identifying this AVL packet Module IMEI – IMEI of a sending module encoded the same as with TCP AVL data array – array of encoded AVL data
| Server response to AVL data packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| AVL packet id (1 byte) | Number of accepted AVL elements (1 byte) | |
AVL packet id (1 byte) – id of received AVL data packet
AVL packet id (1 byte) – id of received AVL data packet
Number of AVL data elements accepted (1 byte) – number of AVL data array entries from the beginning of array, which were accepted by the server.
Scenario: Module sends UDP channel packet with encapsulated AVL data packet. Server sends UDP channel packet with encapsulated response Module validates AVL packet id and Number of accepted AVL elements. If server response with valid AVL packet id is not received within configured timeout, module can retry sending.
Example:
Module sends the data:
| UDP channel header | AVL packet header | AVL data array |
|---|---|---|
| Len – 253,
Id – 0xCAFE, Not usable byte – 00 |
AVL packet id – 0xDD,
IMEI – 1234567890123456 |
CodecId – 08,
NumberOfData – 2. (Encoded using continuous bit stream) |
| 00FDCAFE01 | DD000F3133343536373839303132333435 | 0802…(data elements)…02 |
Server must respond with acknowledgment:
| UDP channel header | AVL packet acknowledgment |
|---|---|
| Len – 5,
Id – 0xABCD, Not usable byte – 00 |
AVL packet id – 0xDD,
NumberOfAcceptedData – 2 |
| 0005ABCD01 | DD02 |

Codec 12
- About Codec12
Codec12 is original Teltonika protocol for device-server communication over GPRS messages.
Codec12 GPRS commands can be used for sending configuration, debug, digital outputs control commands or other (special purpose command on special firmware versions). This protocol is also necessary for using FMB63/FM63/FM5300/FM5500/FM4200 features like: Garmin, LCD communication, COM TCP Link Mode.
- FM firmware requirements
Supported GPRS commands on each device depend on firmware version. For available GPRS commands on each device, please refer to Table1 FM firmware requirement “SMS over GPRS” means that all standard SMS commands text can be sent to device via GPRS in Codec12 format.
| Device | SMS over GPRS | SMS over GPRS via UDP | Special Codec12 GPRS commands |

Table 1. FM firmware requirement
'*' - supported special commands are listed on special firmware description. Please contact Your Teltonika sales manager for more details;
'**' - supported special commands are listed on device user manual, chapter “GPRS Commands”
- GPRS command session
Following figure shows how GRPS command session is started over TCP.
First FM opens GPRS session and sends AVL data to server (refer FM protocols). Once all records are sent and correct sent data array acknowledgment is received by FM then GPRS commands in Hex can be sent to FM.
The ACK (acknowledge of IMEI from server) is a one byte constant 0x01. The acknowledgement of each data array send from FMXXXX is four bytes integer – number of records received.
Note, that GPRS session should remain active between FM and server, while GPRS commands are sent. For this reason active datalink timeout (global parameters in FMXXXX configuration) is recommended to be set to 259200 (maximum value).
- General Codec12 message structure
The following diagram shows basic structure of Codec 12 messages.
Command message structure

Structure explanation:
The message starts with preamble field - four zero bytes. Then goes four bytes data size field (size is calculated from 0x0C field to the second command or response quantity field). Then follows one byte Codec ID field (in Codec 12 it is always 0x0C). Then goes command or response quantity field (it is ignored when parsing the message). After that goes one byte message type field. It can be 0x05 to denote command or 0x06 to denote response. Then follows four bytes command or response size field. After it follows the command or response field itself. After that goes the second command or response quantity field. At the end there’s four bytes CRC field.
Note that difference between commands and responses is message type field: 0x05 means command and 0x06 means response.
The algorithm to calculate CRC is CRC-16 (also known as CRC-16-IBM). All the fields from codec ID to second command/response quantity field are used to calculate CRC. The algorithm of how to calculate
CRC is shown in Figure 3 CRC calculation algorithm.

Codec 13
- About Codec13
Codec13 is original Teltonika protocol for device-server communication over GPRS messages. This protocol is necessary for using following FM features: COM TCP Link Mode (binary/ASCII/binary buffered/ASCII buffered) if message timestamp parameter is enabled in device configuration. Codec13 messages are one way only (Codec 13 is used for FM->Server sending).
- FM firmware requirements
Codec13 availability depends on device and firmware version.
| Device | Availability |
|---|---|
| FM11YX | Available since base firmware 01.18.XX |
| FM12YX | Not available |
| FM10YX | Not available |

Table 1. FM firmware requirements
- GPRS command session
Following figure shows how GRPS command session is started over TCP.
Figure 1. Command session
First FM opens GPRS session and sends AVL data to server (refer FM protocols).
After all records are sent and correct sent data array acknowledgment is received by FM, it will begin TCP link mode message sending.
TCP Link mode messages do not require ACK.
- General Codec13 message structure
The following diagram shows basic structure of Codec 13 messages.
| 0x00000000 | Data size | 0x0D | 0x01 | 0x06 | Command size | Timestamp | Payload | 0x01 | CRC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 bytes | 4 bytes | 1 byte | 1 byte | 1 byte | 4 bytes | 4 bytes | X bytes | 1 byte | 1 byte |
| 0x06 | Message type filed - 0x06 = packet FM -> Server |
|---|
| 0x01 | Ignored bytes |
|---|
Figure 2. Structure of Codec 13 messages
Structure explanation:
- Preamble field - four zero bytes.
- Data size field (size is calculated from:
CID(0x0D = 1 byte)
NOD(0x01 = 1 byte)
CMD_TYPE(0x06 = 1 byte)
CMD_SIZE(variable = 4 bytes, includes size of timestamp field too)
PAYLOAD(variable size, stored in CMD_SIZE field)
NOD(0x01 = 1 byte))
- Codec ID field (in Codec 13 it is always 0x0D).
- NOD field (0x01, it is ignored when parsing the message).
- Message type field. It is always 0x06 since the packet is direction is FM->Server.
- Command size field. Command size field includes size of timestamp too, so it is equal to size of payload + size of timestamp.
- Timestamp field – UNIX timestamp (since 1970/01/01 00:00:00 UTC)
- Payload field – actual received data
- NOD field (0x01, it is ignored when parsing the message)
- CRC field – CRC-16-IBM
The algorithm to calculate CRC is CRC-16 (also known as CRC-16-IBM). All the fields from codec ID to last NOD field are used to calculate CRC. The algorithm of how to calculate CRC is shown in figure 3.
NOTE – Codec13 packets are used only when “Message Timestamp” parameter in RS232 settings is enabled.

Codec 14
- About Codec14
Codec14 is original Teltonika protocol for device-server communication over GPRS messages and it is based on Codec12 protocol.
Main difference of Codec14 is that, device will answer to GPRS command if device physical IMEI number matches specified IMEI number in GPRS command.
Codec14 GPRS commands can be used for sending configuration, debug, digital outputs control commands or other (special purpose command on special firmware versions).
- FMB firmware requirements
Implemented in base firmware from FMB.Ver.03.25.04.Rev.00 and newer.
- General Codec14 message structure
The following diagram shows basic structure of Codec14 messages.
- Command message structure
| 0x00000000 (preamble) | Data size | 0x0E (Codec ID) | Command quantity | 0x05 (Message type) |
Command size + IMEI size (8 bytes) | IMEI (HEX) | Command | Command quantity | CRC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 bytes | 4 bytes | 1 bytes | 1 bytes | 1 bytes | 4 bytes | 8 bytes | X bytes | 1 bytes | 4 bytes |
- Response message structure
| 0x00000000 (preamble) | Data size | 0x0E (Codec ID) | Response quantity | 0x06 / 0x11 (Message type) | Response size + IMEI size (8 bytes) | IMEI (HEX) | Response | Response quantity | CRC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 bytes | 4 bytes | 1 bytes | 1 bytes | 1 bytes | 4 bytes | 8 bytes | X bytes | 1 bytes | 4 bytes |
- Structure explanation:
- 1. The message starts with preamble field - four zero bytes.
- 2. Then goes four bytes data size field (size is calculated from 0x0E field to the second command or response quantity field).
- 3. Then follows one byte Codec ID field (in Codec 14 it is always 0x0E).
- 4. Then goes command or response quantity field. Response message will contain same quantity field value as request command quantity 1st byte (quantity byte that’s located before message field type byte). 2nd byte (quantity byte that’s located at the end before CRC) will not be parsed but it’s recommended that it should contain same value as 1st byte.
- 5. After that goes one byte message type field. If it’s request command from server it has to contain 0x05. The response type field will contain 0x06 if it’s ACK or 0x11 if it’s nACK.
Explanation: If command message IMEI is equal to actual device IMEI, received command will be executed and response will be sent with ACK (0x06) message type field value. If command message IMEI doesn’t match actual device IMEI, received command won’t be executed and response to server will be sent with nACK (0x11) message type field value.
- 6. Then follows four bytes command or response size field. (make sure that size is IMEI size 8 + actual command size.) Minimal value is 8 because codec14 always contain IMEI and it’s 8 bytes.
- 7. After it follows the IMEI. IMEI is send as HEX value. Example if device IMEI is 123456789123456 then IMEI data field will contain 0x0123456789123456 value.
- 8. After it follows the command or response field itself. If message type field is nACK (0x11) this data field will be empty.
- 9. After that goes the second command or response quantity field.
- 10. At the end there’s four bytes CRC field.
The algorithm to calculate CRC is CRC-16 (also known as CRC-16-IBM). All the fields from codec ID to second command/response quantity field are used to calculate CRC. The algorithm of how to calculate CRC is shown in Figure 3 CRC calculation algorithm.
CRC is shown in Figure 3 CRC calculation algorithm.

Codec 16
- Description and example
Records to server will be sent as shown in table below. The main difference between CODEC8 and CODEC16 is CODEC ID which will be 0x10 instead of 0x08, AVL ID‘s in AVL data is sent in 2 bytes, instead of 1 byte.
Also new parameter – Generation type is added.
By receiving 0x10 codec ID server must know that AVL data record will be parsed different.
Codec16 is supported from firmware – 00.03.xx and newer. (FMB630/FM63XY) ll AVL ID‘s which are higher than 255 will can be used only in CODEC16 protocol.
Generation type elements:
| Value | Record created |
|---|---|
| 0 | On exit |
| 1 | On Entrance |
| 2 | On Both |
| 3 | Reserved |
| 4 | Hysterisis |
| 5 | On Change |
| 6 | Eventual |
| 7 | Periodical |
Codec16 TCP packet frame:
| Header | Data length | Codec ID | NOD1 | AVL DATA | NOD2 | CRC16 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 bytes | 4 bytes | 0x10 | 1 byte | Variable | 1 byte | 4 Bytes |
NOD1, NOD2 – number of data (number of packed records)
Codec ID – constant 0x10.
Data length – the length of packet from CodecID to NOD2.
NOD2 should be equal to NOD1.
CRC16 is 4 bytes, but first two are zeroes and last two are CRC-16 calculated for CodecID to NOD2.

02 – Number of Data (2 records)
000009A5 - CRC-16, 4 Bytes (first 2 are always zeros)
- Communication with server
First when module connects to server, module sends its IMEI. First comes short identifying number of bytes written and then goes IMEI as text (bytes).
For example IMEI 123456789012345 would be sent as 000f333536333037303432343431303133
First two bytes denote IMEI length. In this case 000F means, that IMEI is 15 bytes long.
After receiving IMEI, server should determine if it would accept data from this module. If yes server will reply to module 01 if not 00. Note that confirmation should be sent as binary packet. I.e. 1 byte 0x01 or 0x00.
Then module starts to send first AVL data packet. After server receives packet and parses it, server must report to module number of data received as integer (four bytes).
If sent data number and reported by server doesn’t match module resends sent data.
Example:
Module connects to server and sends IMEI:
000f333536333037303432343431303133
Server accepts the module:
01
Module sends data packet:
| Codec type | AVL data packet header | AVL data array | CRC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Four zero bytes,
‘AVL data array’ length – 254 |
CodecId – 08 or codec 16,
NumberOfData – 2. (Encoded using continuous bit stream. Last byte padded to align to byte boundary) |
CRC of ‘AVL data array’ | |
| Codec8 | 00000000000000FE | 0802...(data elements)...02 | 00008612 |
| Codec16 | 00000000000000FE | 1002...(data elements)...02 | 00008612 |
Server acknowledges data reception (2 data elements):
00000002
Sending data over UDP/IP
- UDP channel protocol
UDP channel is a transport layer protocol above UDP/IP to add reliability to plain UDP/IP using acknowledgment packets. The packet structure is as follows:
| UDP datagram | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| UDP channel packet x N | Example | 2 bytes | Packet length (excluding this field) in big ending byte order |
| Packet Id | 2 bytes | Packet id unique for this channel | |
| Not usable byte | 1 byte | Not usable byte | |
| Packet payload | m bytes | Data payload | |
| Not usable byte | ||
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Data packet requiring acknowledgment | |
Acknowledgment packet should have the same packet id as acknowledged data packet and empty data payload.
Acknowledgement should be sent in binary format.
| Acknowledgment packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| Packet length | 2 bytes | 0x0003 |
| Packet id | 2 bytes | same as in acknowledged packet |
| Not usable byte | 1 byte | 0x00 |
- Sending AVL data using UDP channel
AVL data are sent encapsulated in UDP channel packets (Data payload field).
| AVL data encapsulated in UDP channel packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| AVL packet id (1 byte) | Module IMEI | AVL data array |
AVL packet id (1 byte) – id identifying this AVL packet
Module IMEI – IMEI of a sending module encoded the same as with TCP
AVL data array – array of encoded AVL data
| Server response to AVL data packet | ||
|---|---|---|
| AVL packet id (1 byte) | Number of accepted AVL elements (1 byte) | |
AVL packet id (1 byte) – id of received AVL data packet
Number of AVL data elements accepted (1 byte) – number of AVL data array entries from the beginning of array, which were accepted by the server
Scenario:
Module sends UDP channel packet with encapsulated AVL data packet. Server sends UDP channel packet with encapsulated response Module validates AVL packet id and Number of accepted AVL elements. If server response with valid AVL packet id is not received within configured timeout, module can retry sending.
Example
Module sends the data:
| UDP channel header | AVL packet header | AVL data array |
|---|---|---|
| Len – 253,
Id – 0xCAFE, Not usable byte – 00 |
AVL packet id – 0xDD,
IMEI – 1234567890123456 |
CodecId – 08,
NumberOfData – 2. (Encoded using continuous bit stream) |
| 00FDCAFE01 | DD000F3133343536373839303132333435 | 0802…(data elements)…02 |
Server must respond with acknowledgment:
| UDP channel header | AVL packet acknowledgment |
|---|---|
| Len – 5,
Id – 0xABCD, Not usable byte – 00 |
AVL packet id – 0xDD,
NumberOfAcceptedData – 2 |
| 0005ABCD01 | DD02 |
- Another example, with all IO id’s enabled
Server received data:
Data length: 00a1 or 161 Bytes (not counting the first 2 data length bytes)
Packet identification: 0xCAFE 2 bytes
Not usable byte : 00
Packet id: 1b
Imei length: 000f
Actual imei: 333536333037303432343431303133
Codec id: 08
Number of data: 01
Timestamp: 0000013febdd19c8
Priority: 00
GPS data: 0f0e9ff0209a718000690000120000
UDP protocol is the same as TCP except message header is 7 bytes, which consist of: data length, packet identification, not usable byte and packet id.
Then goes imei length and imei itself.
And after that goes AVL data.
And at the very end number of data byte. There is no CRC in UDP.
- Sending data using SMS
AVL data or events can be sent encapsulated in binary SMS. TP-DCS field of these SMS should indicate that message contains 8-bit data (for example: TP-DCS can be 0x04).
| SM data (TP-UD) | ||
|---|---|---|
| AVL data array | IMEI: 8 bytes | |
AVL data array – array of encoded AVL data
IMEI – IMEI of sending module encoded as a big endian 8-byte long number.
- 24 position SMS data protocol
24-hour SMS is usually sent once every day and contains GPS data of last 24 hours. TP-DCS field of this SMS should indicate that message contains 8-bit data (i.e. TP-DCS can be 0x04).
Note, that 24 position data protocol is used only with subscribed SMS. Event SMS use standard AVL data protocol.
Encoding
To be able to compress 24 GPS data entries into one SMS (140 octets), the data is encoded extensively using bit fields. Data packet can be interpreted as a bit stream, where all bits are numbered as follows:
| Byte 1 | Byte 2 | Byte 3 | Bytes 4-… |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bits 0-7 | Bits 8-15 | Bits 16-24 | Bits 25-… |
Bits in a byte are numbered starting from least significant bit. A field of 25 bits would consist of bits 0 to 24 where 0 is the least significant bit and bit 24 – most significant bit.
Structure
| SMS Data Structure | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 8 | Codec ID | Codec ID = 4 | |
| 35 | Timestamp | Time corresponding to the first (oldest) GPS data element,
represented in seconds elapsed from 2000.01.01 00:00 EET. | |
| 5 | ElementCount | Number of GPS data elements | |
| SMS Data Structure | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| ElementCount * | GPSDataElement | GPS data elements. | |
| Byte-align padding | Padding bits to align to 8-bits boundary
represented in seconds elapsed from 2000.01.01 00:00 EET. | ||
| 64 | IMEI | IMEI of sending device as 8-byte long integer | |
The time of only the first GPS data element is specified in Timestamp field. Time corresponding to each further element can be computed as elementTime = Timestamp + (1 hour * elementNumber).
| GPS Data Element | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Size (bits) | Field | Description | ||
| 1 | ValidElement | ValidElement=1 – there is a valid Gps Data Element following,
ValidElement=0 – no element at this position | ||
| ValidElement == 1 | ||||
| 1 | DifferentialCoords | Format of following data. | ||
| DifferentialCoords == 1 | ||||
| 14 | LongitudeDiff | Difference from previous element‘s longitude.
LongitudeDiff = prevLongitude – Longitude + 213 – 1 | ||
| 14 | LatitudeDiff | Difference from previous element‘s latitude
LatitudeDiff = prevLatitude – Latitude + 213 – 1 | ||
| DifferentialCoords == 0 | ||||
| 21 | Longitude | Longitude= {(LongDegMult + 18 * 108) * (221 –
1)} over {36*108} | ||
| 20 | Latitude | Latitude=(LatDegMult + 9*108) * (220 – 1) over
{18*108} | ||
| 8 | Speed | Speed in km/h | ||
Longitude - longitude field value of GPSDataElement
Latitude - latitude field value of GPSDataElement
LongDegMult - longitude in degrees multiplied by 107 (integer part)
LatDegMult latitude in degrees multiplied by 107 (integer part)
prevLongitude longitude field value of previous GPSDataElemen
prevLatitude latitude field value of previous GPSDataElement
- Decoding GPS position
When decoding GPS data with DifferentialCoords=1, Latitude and Longitude values can be computed as follows: Longitude=prevLongitude – LongitudeDiff + 213 – 1, Latitude=prevLatitude – LatitudeDiff + 213 – 1.
If there were no previous non-differential positions, differential coordinates should be computed assuming prevLongitude=prevLatitude=0.
When Longitude and Latitude values are known, longitude and latitude representation in degrees can be computed as follows:
- SMS Events
