3.12.2 Accelerometer
The terminal has a 3D accelerometer to detect motion in any axis.
In low power applications frequent GPS fixes can dominate the power budget. To reduce the power budget
effects of GPS fixes, the accelerometer can be used to detect if motion has occurred.
The accelerometer thresholds to detect advanced features such as driver behavior monitoring vary
depending on the environment. In order to avoid false detects, extensive testing is required to ensure that
adequate acceleration magnitude thresholds and time durations are used.
