Geofence report: This report allows the user to view details on some or all of the geofences that a vehicle has visited over a specified date range. Reports can be generated on a per vehicle basis, per geofence basis, or a combination of both. This report is designed to allow the user to determine the time spent and distance traveled inside of a geofenced area. * Select the vehicle(s) you wish to run the report against (hold down the 'Ctrl' key to select multiple vehicles). Activate the report selection by right mouse clicking on the selection or choosing from the 'Reports' menu from the main menu bar. * From the 'Geofence List' select the Geofences you wish to include in the report.

Speed analysis report: This report allows the user to analyse the pattern of speed for how a vehicle is being driven over time. You may run the report based on selected vehicles or drivers. The report also allows you to perform a graphical comparison of up to five other vehicles or drivers at a time. The report can be generated over user defined speed bands so that you can see what proportion of time a vehicle is traveling in a particular speed bracket. The report supports up to 10 'Speed Bands'. * Select the vehicle or vehicles (up to five) that you wish to perform the Speed Analysis Report on and then right click the selection or choose the report from the 'Reports' menu in the main menu bar. You can select multiple vehicles by holding down the 'Ctrl' key and left clicking on the vehicles you want. Alternatively, you can run the report on one vehicle and then select additional vehicles from within the report options screen at the next step. * On the left of the 'Speed Analysis Report Options' screen, you can see the vehicles you have selected for this report. You can add or remove vehicles from the report as needed. You can also tab between selecting vehicles or drivers with the button directly below the left-hand selection box. Note that the report will not accept more than five selections. * Next, you need to define the 'Speed Bands' you want to analyse. You can define up to a maximum of 10 speed bands. It is recommended that you define even speed bands. I.e. all even 15kph or mph separations. This helps ensure that your analysis is not biased heavily into a broad speed band such as 30mph - 90mph. * Select 'Add' located under the right-hand speed band window. You will first be asked to define the minimum speed the report will be based on. Note that although you can define zero as the minimum speed, it is advisable to define between 1 and 5 as your minimum speeds and ignore speed events below this. This is because a large number of events occur when the vehicle is not moving and this will disproportionately skew the report into the lower speed band. Ignoring these events will provide a more accurate and realistic view of driving behavior. Click add and continue to add speed bands as you desire. Note, if you want to report, for example, on 20kph speed separations simply enter each band as 20, 40, 60, 80, etc. The report will automatically adjust the bands to 20-39, 40-59, etc. * Next, select the date and time range you want to run the report against. Note, selecting a wide date range of at least 1-2 weeks will provide a more accurate report as it will increase the size of the 'Sample Count' (see note below). * Click 'OK' to build the report. NOTE: Below the Speed Analysis Graph you will see the colour legend for the various vehicles/drivers you have selected for the report along with additional information. 'Total Driving Time' specifies the total time spent driving over the selected date range. 'Sample Count' refers to the total number of speed samples taken over the time period that the report has been run for. This is useful as it gives an indication of the statistical accuracy of the report. It also helps ensure that a comparison of multiple vehicles is even. Comparing a vehicle with a sample count of 5,000 against a vehicle with a sample count of 50 will not provide a valid comparison. Mileage report: This function returns the user with a 'Mileage Report' on a specific vehicle, number of vehicles or all vehicles over a specified date and time range. From the 'Vehicle Detail' list select vehicle(s) by clicking or using the Ctrl or Shift keys to select individual, several or a range of vehicles respectively. * Select the 'Mileage' report by right clicking on the vehicle selection or the 'Reports' menu from the main menu bar. * Enter the date and time range and click 'OK' to build report. Stop report: This function returns the user with a 'Stop Report' on the selected vehicle over a specified date and time range. It is selected in the same way as the Activity Report. Trip report: This function returns the user with a 'Trip Report' on the selected vehicle over a specified date and time range. It is selected in the same way as the Activity Report. Unauthorised Event Report: This function returns the user with a 'Unauthorised Event Report' on the selected vehicle over a specified date and time range.

Advanced Vehicle Configuration (Administrator access only) IP Address: This changes dynamically and represents the last known IP address of the vehicle. AVL ID: This is a unique number assigned to the tracking unit in the vehicle at point of manufacture. Sim Number: Informational field to record SIM details AVL Ph No: Informational field to store telephone number. Supports Device Message Routing: A tick box when checked... 4.4.3 Administration Current Vehicle

Administration Current Vehicle This tab provides information on the selected vehicle last known location, report time, speed, heading, ignition and GPS status. 4.4.4 Administration Vehicle Reporting Times Administration Vehicle Reporting Times This tab is normally only available to the system administrator.

This tab sets reporting parameters for the vehicle. Logging Interval: A time in minutes between timed updates from the vehicle when its ignition is on. The updates can be either based on time or distance, which ever occurs first. Standby Timeout: This is the time the unit remains fully active after the ignition is switched off. This time is for allowing queued events to be sent and received after the ignition off event. Sleep Timeout: The unit wakes up for a short period at intervals entered to determine that the vehicle has not been moved when its ignition is in an off state and to complete any communications not achieved during the standby timeout. Distance Interval: A distance between timed updates in Kilometres when the ignition is on. The updates can be either based on distance or time, which ever occurs first. The vehicle is updated by pressing the 'Send' button. The 'Status' and 'Vehicle RX: give information on the changes being updated. 4.4.5 Administration Vehicle Features Administration Vehicle Features When a device such as the Qube is powered up for the first time a cold-power event is generated as the device establishes its first connection with the OnlineAVL server. This cold-power event contains a diagnostic message with the version number of the firmware. This screen will record and display the firmware versions for the selected vehicle. The available features check box enables you to manually enable or disable features that maybe unsupported. These check boxes should only be used by administrators, advanced users or when prompted to do so by a Navman Wireless technical support representative. This is intended to prevent users attempting to send polygonal geofences for example, to vehicles

that do not support the latest features.. 4.4.6 Administration Vehicle Geofences Administration Vehicle Geofences

This tab is used to configure the geofences for the vehicle. You must multi select all of the geofences from the list that you wish the vehicle to notify you of and then click 'Send'. The status of all of the geofences selected will change to 'Sending Record', and all other geofences will change to a status of 'Unknown Status' indicating that they are not configured for this vehicle. When the vehicle receives and acknowledges each geofence the status is changed to 'Received by Vehicle' and the 'Time At Vehicle' is updated to the time that the acknowledgement was received. 4.4.7 Administration Canned Messages Administration Canned Messages

This screen allows you to send your Canned Messages (these are setup under File>Admin>Canned Messages) out to your selected vehicle. Note that whenever you change or update your canned messages, you will need to resend your canned messages out to the vehicle using the Send All button. 4.4.8 Administration Queue Administration Queue This tab is normally only available to the system administrator.

This tab lists all outgoing messages that are queued for the selected vehicle. Individual messages can be selected and removed from this queue if required. 4.4.9 Administration Command Log Administration Command Log This tab is an informational screen of the current state of all commands sent to the selected vehicle.

4.4.10 Administration Vehicle Driver Administration Vehicle Driver

Driver PIN required Check this to enable Driver ID for the selected vehicle. Auto logoff By default the driver PIN will automatically logoff when the vehicle ignition is turned off. However, for some customers, such as delivery/courier customers, who regularly stop and get in and out of the vehicle, Driver ID can be set to delay auto-logoff. This can allow a driver to turn off the vehicle and return within 10 minutes (for example), restart the vehicle, and still be logged on. MDT starts beeping The MDT is designed to emit a loud warning beep if the driver does not log in. However, the MDT will not start beeping until the elapsed time is reached after vehicle ignition. The customer can increase or decrease this period here. Vehicle events from ignition to driver logon In order to logon, the driver must first start the vehicle. Invariably there will be occasions where the driver forgets to login. The MDT will beep at the driver to remind them to login. However, what happens to events from the vehicle that occur before the driver logs in? OnlineAVL is designed to associate any events from a vehicle that occur without a PIN with a reporting entity known as Unknown Driver. This setting allows OnlineAVL to assume that the driver is indeed known and will automatically link events to the driver so long as the driver logs in within *2* minutes from vehicle ignition. This setting is configurable. Vehicle Response When Driver ID is enabled for the vehicle OnlineAVL will send a message down to the vehicle telling it to require a PIN number. The vehicle will automatically respond back to OnlineAVL and confirm that Driver ID has been enabled. Or, in the event that there is a problem, such as no MDT detected, the Qube in the vehicle will report back to OnlineAVL that Driver ID has not been successfully enabled. Driver ID also introduces several new driver activity events that will appear in the activity window. To support these new events, a range of new event icons have been provided to indicate different event types. These include:

Driver PIN Accepted generated when a valid PIN has been used and a successful driver logon event has occurred. Driver PIN Denied generated when an invalid PIN has been used and an unsuccessful driver logon event has occurred. Driver Logoff generated when a driver has either manually logged off from the MDT or an ignition off event has automatically logged the driver off. Driver Timeout generated when the Auto-logoff feature is enabled and the system automatically logs the driver off after an expiry period. PIN In Use generated when someone attempts to login with a valid PIN that is already in use (note that this will not be generated if the PIN has been selected to allow multiple logons). Unknown Driver generated when a driver fails to logon within a defined time limit. This may indicate that an unauthorised person is driving the vehicle. 4.4.11 Administration Vehicle Calendar Administration Vehicle Calendar Event Type Stationary or Unauthorised Setting Up

Stationary Vehicle Alert (Shown as Green in example above) This alert is a productivity alert that should be used during normal business operating hours. It is designed to alert an AVL operator when a vehicle s work rate dips below a defined level or the vehicle is stationary too long. This is most relevant for service and rapid delivery businesses that require the vehicle to have a high work rate by being on the move and getting to places on time. The alert will trigger based on a time and distance setting that you define. For example, let s say that you want to know if a vehicle is stationary for more than 20 minutes. You can set up the alert to trigger if the vehicle does not move more than 100 meters in 20 minutes. Or, you can set up the alert to trigger if the vehicle does not travel more than 500 meters in 15 minutes. As a result, the alert may trigger if the vehicle is stuck in traffic. You can also define gaps where the alerting will pause such as a lunch or dinner hour. This means that you can fine-tune the alert settings to minimize instances where the alert might false trigger (setting the alert off when the you know that the driver is most probably on a lunch break).

Unauthorised Movement Alert (Shown as Blue in example above) The Unauthorised Movement Alert is essentially the opposite of the Stationary Vehicle Alert. Where the Stationary alert is focused on normal business hours and making sure that the vehicle is moving, the Unauthorised Movement alert is focused on non-business hours and making sure that the vehicle is not being used when it should not be. The Unauthorised Movement Alert is designed to be used primarily at night and on weekends or any time when the vehicle should not be active. The alert can be set to trigger on three criteria: Any Activity the alert will trigger on the first activity seen during the scheduled time period. This will most likely be an ignition on event but if a ConEx is configured it could trigger on a door open event or any other event. This alert type is all or nothing no other alerting options may be configured as they are overridden by the Activity alert. You should only use this alert option if you do not want the vehicle touched at all during non-business hours. The distance and geofence alert types can be used together or separately and should be used when you want to allow a certain amount of activity during non-business hours. For example, this may be in the case of a business where all vehicles are returned to base at night and on weekends but the vehicles receive maintenance or are shifted around the base/yard. Or, drivers are allowed to take vehicles home at night but should not be using them for personal use. Distance this alert will trigger if the vehicle travels more than an allotted distance during the scheduled period. This is particularly useful for customers who allow drivers to take their vehicles home with them. This setting can be used to avoid false alerts if the driver needs to shift the vehicle in their driveway on the weekend. Or if you don t mind the driver using the vehicle to run to the shops but don't want the driver using the vehicle for long trips on the weekend. You can set this alert to trigger if the vehicle travels more than a few hundred meters or several kilometres. This also means that service staff can service a vehicle on the yard without triggering the alert. Geofences this alert can be set to trigger if the vehicle enters or exits a geofence. This is especially useful if you want to allow the vehicle to operate within a defined area such as a yard on the weekend but not leave that area. NOTE: This alert requires that the Qube in the vehicle have the yard s geofence stored or else it will not know to trigger the alert.

These alert options have been provided to minimize instances of false alerting. If you find that alerts are triggering too often when there is no problem, you may need to tune alert settings to reduce instances of false alerting. Setting Up Calendar Alerts are setup using a graphical interface. You can setup or modify the calendar alert schedule from a tab on the Vehicle Administration window or you can create a general Calendar Template. 4.4.12 Administration Vehicle Time Zone Administration Vehicle Time Zone A requirement of Calendar Alerts is for the vehicle to know which time zone it is working from. The Qube is configured from this screen by selecting the appropriate time zone from the drop down list and sending it to the vehicle. SPECIAL NOTE: The vehicle calendar alerts are only designed to operate in one time zone, hence only one time zone is selectable. Keep this in mind if you have vehicles crossing into different time zones as alerts will trigger at unusual times.
