Introduction
This manual provides installation and setup instructions for the Syn-Tech Systems, Inc., FuelMaster
®
AIM2™ Automotive Information Module (herein referred to as AIM2™) and associated equipment.
These instructions have been prepared for the exclusive use of installation technicians who are
qualified to complete electrical work on vehicular electrical systems. AIM2™ consists of equipment
developed to initiate passive fueling through a FuelMaster
®
FMU-3500 Fuel Management Unit, or a
FuelMaster
®
FMU-3535 Passive Mobile Fuel Management Unit.
Passive fueling, as used in this context, is the initiation of a fueling transaction by the AIM2™
equipment without the need for operator input. The fueling customer pulls his/her vehicle up to the fuel
dispenser (or fuel truck), takes the fuel nozzle down from the dispenser, and inserts it into the vehicle
fuel filler neck. This action prompts the AIM2™ equipment in the vehicle to transmit authorization via
RF (radio frequency transmission) to the FuelMaster
®
FMU-3500/3535 which, in turn, activates the
fueling hose. When complete, the fueling customer returns the nozzle to the dispenser, returns to
his/her vehicle and drives away. The FMU-3500/3535 records the fuel transaction and stores the
fueling information until downloaded by the FuelMaster
®
Fuel Management Software operator.
Purpose
FuelMaster
®
fuel accounting and control provides Syn-Tech’s customers with a means to control
access to metered products at self-service service stations, and to account for and invoice for the
dispensed products. FuelMaster
®
accomplishes this with security from unauthorized user access while
maintaining complete accountability of each transaction as it occurs. FuelMaster
®
passive fueling
provides for secure, accountable control of fuel dispensing without direct user access of the fuel
management system. Transaction data is compiled after downloading data to a central accounting
office hundreds, or thousands of miles remote from the servicing operations.
