See all the data sent from the device including the number of satellites, ignition status and network coverage
  1. Click "Options" to open the options window.
  2. "Include metadata", that way you'll see all the extended data as well as the location and speed.




Step 5: Running the Report

  1. Click "Run Report": After setting the date range and vehicle/device, click the green Run Report button to generate the report.




Step 6: Understanding the Data

After generating the report, you'll see a table with key information. Each row corresponds to a vehicle's interaction with a zone, displaying the following columns:

  • Name: The vehicle's name (e.g., "TMR Landcruiser").
  • Recorded At: The timestamp of when the GPS data was recorded.
  • Uploaded At: The timestamp of when the data was uploaded to the system.
  • Upload Delta (sec): The time difference (in seconds) between when the data was recorded and uploaded.
  • Lat, Lng: The latitude and longitude coordinates of the vehicle's location.
                      Click the location to see the point plotted on the map.
  • Speed (km/h): The vehicle's speed at the time of data capture.
  • Bearing: The vehicle's direction in degrees.
  • Accuracy: The accuracy of the GPS signal, measured by the number of satellites used.
  • Power: The voltage level of the vehicle's battery.
  • Ignition: Indicates whether the ignition is on or off.

Extended data

Open the extended data to see an in-depth overview of all the data sent from the device.

To open: Click the green "plus" icon

Overview of data given (if applicable):
  • Trigger Event: Indicates the type of event that caused the GPS data to be recorded, in this case, normal operations.
  • Ignition State: Describes whether the engine is turned on or off.
                                  For further information on this see engine-on-off-detection
  • Movement Sensor: Detects if the vehicle is in motion.

  • GPS Status: Indicates whether the GPS signal has been acquired successfully.
  • Ignition Input: Measures the status of the IGNITION/ACC wire (pin 5).
  • Digital Output States: Shows the status of the outputs (e.g., circuits or components controlled by the system).
  • Digital Input Status: Reflects the state of the inputs, such as sensors or buttons, in terms of voltage levels (on or off).
  • Network: Specifies the type of cellular network used for data transmission (e.g., 4G).
  • PDOP and HDOP: Metrics that assess the quality of the GPS signal, with PDOP focusing on position accuracy and HDOP on horizontal accuracy.
  • External Power Voltage: Reflects the voltage provided by the external power source to the device (generally the vehicle's battery).
  • Network Area Code: Represents the specific area or location code within the cellular network.
  • Internal Battery Voltage: Indicates the voltage of the internal backup battery.
  • Internal Battery Charging Current: Shows the current flowing into the internal battery, if charging.
  • Network Operator Code: Identifies the cellular network operator being used.
  • iButton ID: Checks for the presence of an iButton device, often used for driver authentication or access control.
                            This is an optional extra, please see our install-page for further information.




  • Step 7: Exporting and Scheduling Reports

    • Export Options: After running the report, you can export it by clicking on the Export button. This allows you to download the report in formats like CSV or PDF.

    • Scheduling: To set up automated reports, click the Schedule button and configure the frequency and delivery options for future reports.
