This base system involves adding a wireless communications gateway to a piece of equipment with little or no interaction with that equipment. Simple, hard-wired inputs can be made available to collect additional information and report it as required. This base system enables:

• Location Tracking
• Usage Tracking
• Fleet Driver Management

Building upon the base system, the addition of machine monitoring capabilities includes receiving information from an on-board data bus (typically CAN) and making it available to any authorized party. Because most of the messaging is proprietary to the machine OEM, cooperation with each OEM is critical to enable access to significant machine information, including:

• Machine Performance
• Diagnostics
• Alerts

Requiring extensive integration with other components on the machine, this level enables information to be received and sent to a machine and/or operator. This sophisticated communication interaction makes it possible for machines to receive and react to incoming information, including:

• Driver travel directions
• Job site coordination
• Maintenance coordination
• Fleet coordination

Reporting, monitoring, and controlling machine operations and productivity through Telematics promises to revolutionize many major heavy machinery-based industries in terms of efficient logistics, reduced maintenance, and cost control. Our systems integrate advanced communication technologies, such as CAN, GSM Cellular, Satellite, and GPS, into a sophisticated network that meets your specialized needs.

Web access, management reports, APIs to integrate available data with existing third-party business systems, and text message alerts can be made available at each level of service.
