Can I use the internal motion sensor in the FOX3 or BOLERO40 instead of the ignition line (IGN) to detect the Trip-Start/-Stop and/or to put the device in sleep (hibernate) mode when no moving?

Yes, you can use it like in the example below:

$PFAL,CNF.Set,AL0=IO.Motion.eMoving:TCP.Client.send,8,"The trip started"     // When the tracker detects a movement → It sends a TCP message with the standard GPS protocol (GPRMC) and the user text "The trip started" 

$PFAL,CNF.Set,AL1=IO.Motion.eStanding:SYS.Timer0.Start=single,120000     // When the vehicle stops moving → A single timer with the index 0 runs for 120000ms

$PFAL,CNF.Set,AL2=SYS.Timer.e1&IO.Motion.sStanding:TCP.Client.send,8,"The trip stopped"&SYS.Device.Sleep=Motion=200  // When the timer0 runs out & the status of the motion sensor is still standing →  It sends a TCP message with the standard GPS protocol (GPRMC) and the user text "The trip stopped" & then it goes in sleep mode. It can wake up when it moves.  

$PFAL,CNF.Set,AL3=SYS.Device.eStart&IO.Motion.sMoving:TCP.Client.send,8,"The trip started"  // If the tracker starts & the status of the motion sensor is moving →  It sends a TCP message with the standard GPS protocol (GPRMC) and the user text "The trip started"
