MHub-701 Theft recovery Range of Mobile Products MHub-828H Hybrid Iridium/GSM version MHub-828 Basic version MHub-837 OBD-II PnP version MHub-828G Stand alone asset management version MHub-828C CanBus version MHub-828T Trailer version MHub Mobile Mobile Phone Application 7
MHub 837 Key features OBD II self installed vehicle activity monitoring and tracking device Key features include: Daily activity summary Driving behavior pattern recognition OBD II data including: VIN number, speed, RPM, engine load, fuel usage etc. Accident notification & reconstruction Tow detection Private vs. business trip logs Location monitoring: real time & historical location and more Teen safety monitoring 8
MHub 828 Key Features Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) Driver Management Zone management Distribution management Accident reconstruction Power modes Temperature monitoring Least cost routing In vehicle networks OBD II or CanBus PDA interface Dynamic trigger configuration On-board navigation assistance 9
Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) Provides trip information including: driver identification, input status, output control, speeding, odometer, as well as real time location Position Provide periodical position Poll request possibility Speed (3 sources) Speed Pulse Signal, GPS & in vehicle network Odometer reading Input Frequency (Speed / RPM) Digital On/off (i.e. doors) Output Activating and deactivating (e.g. door locking, immobilizer) Outputs can be associated with activation styles 10
Driver performance Active monitoring of abusive driver behavior relating to operational and maintenance costs as well as compliance with safety regulations The following parameters are monitored and exception events are communicated when the driver exceeds the thresholds defined by the operator. Excessive Idling Excessive RPM Free Wheeling -User defined parameter based on the duration of the vehicle movement without the vehicle being in gear. Harsh Braking The benefits include the following Monitoring of vehicle misuse Reduction in fuel consumption Extension of vehicle life-span Reduction of maintenance cost Increase in vehicle safety 11
Zone management Monitoring of user defined location related activities by categorized Geofences (i.e. customers, fuel stations, depots, etc.,) Entry or exit from a defined Geofence The Geofence hardware will provide an exact entry or exit time with the ability to generate SMS to any mobile phone A significantly higher number of POIs than Geofences hardware can be defined Flexibility in defining the complex shapes in a POI and Geofence hardware Example: unlocking of the cargo doors on entering a customer location 12
Resource management Scheduled delivery plans are downloaded to the MHub unit Monitors the execution of the delivery plan and reports action vs. planned Facilitates integration with 3rd party routing and optimization platforms Provides the operators with real time delivery execution analysis Data can be utilized to dynamically resolve delivery problems Can be used for statistical purposes to further optimize future delivery schedules 13
In-vehicle-network Interface to the standard J1939 (CanBus) or FMS specification vehicle networks providing essential vehicle information including Odometer Trip distance values Fuel tank level and fuel used Water temperature Oil pressure Axel load and engine hours Benefits: Provides vehicle data, otherwise hard or expensive to obtain (brake usage, fuel consumption etc.) 14
Additional features Accident reconstruction The MHub logs relevant vehicle events including accelerometer data (when available) on a second-by-second basis in a designated accident log Temperature monitoring Temperature monitoring of refrigeration compartments with a range of - 20C to +120C Each sensor with individual temperature limit 15

MZone application A browser based fleet & mobile resource management platform. Key features include: Historical & real time location Dispatch management Fuel management Fleet utilization management Driver performance POI management Vehicle service management Comprehensive job planning, scheduling & optimization 20
Mobile Resource Management (MRM) module 21
Mobile Resource Management (MRM) module MRM is a comprehensive, powerful Mobile Resource Management platform designed for logistics companies and fleet operators Management tools to: Reduce operational and maintenance costs Increase mobile resource utilization Efficiently plan schedule delivery and service assignment Operator user friendly access to complex activities such as planning and scheduling 22
Gilat Satcom MRM module Customers \ Depots All entities in the MRM database contain the clients and depots physical location Enables to seamlessly schedule and determine whether the drivers/vehicles have arrived at their destination 23
Gilat Satcom MRM module Time management chart and jobs An active time management chart, known as a Gantt chart. contains vehicle time profiles that are clearly displayed Time profiles determine work per day time per vehicle and times in which drivers will be able to drive such vehicles 24
Gilat Satcom MRM module Optimization route Optimization selects the best sequence for the jobs and calculates arrivals and departures from each. Times include travel, admin and job time. This is then plot in a graphical format that can be edited or altered to suit the user. 25
Gilat Satcom MRM module Planned vs. actual Each job then has a graphical representation on the Gantt chart that updates based on the status of the jobs. Colour helps to profile each job for early, late or on time jobs. 26
PDA interface Communication and data file transfers (e.g. invoices, routes, EPOD files, etc.) between the PDA and back office platforms are facilitated via the MHub unit ensuring a reliable means of data synchronization. The interface also provides MHub specific data relating to temperature, position, input statuses, exposes usage of the MHub for voice calls and messaging. Interface between the PDA and the MHub is provided via an easily integrated API or utilizing the Gilat PDA application. Accessories: PDA interface cable PDA application 27
PND module PND (Personal Navigation Device) With use of a PND or PDA device, drivers can actively manage their jobs and status. As well as call Control Rooms for assistance As an example the PDA interface will allow drivers to view all the information that is sent from MRM 28
PND Module sample screens PDA: Arrival status screen: Route List screen: Temperature Monitoring Screen: 29
Mobile application Java based platform therefore compatible with most mobile devices available Enables to view task job allocations, advise job statuses and auto report positional data on a user defined intervals Auto tracking the application sends periodic positions every 2 minutes 30
