(openPR) Telematics solutions help to have mobile machines in view
May 2nd 2011 – If you want to save money during daily disposition of construction vehicles, you will need MOTONETIC. The telematics solution has the features locating, geofencing, tracing and alarm functions to prevent theft or not planned use. Furthermore evaluation reports on the hours of operation and idle time are part of MOTONETIC Standard. No software-installation is necessary. Data download is possible with any web browser and via mobile telephone. Test MOTONETIC two weeks free of charge and be convinced of the different features.
Reduce the operative expenses with MOTONETIC telematics solutions
Owners of construction machinery can boost the productivity of their fleet, reduce CO2 emissions as well as operative expenses, analyse and adapt the driving style. The data backup is guaranteed by the personal user account.
Overview of idle times and hours of operation
MOTONETIC provides answers to questions like: where is my construction machinery at the moment? How long was it located at this place? How long was it used? The telematics solutions from MOTOMETER display the hours of operation, idle and break times in the MOTONETIC web. The procurement manager can choose between current snapshots, daily or weekly reports in the file formats .pdf, .xls and .csv.
Integrated anti-theft protection
The vibration sensor alarm is an important feature to protect from theft. As soon as the machine equipped with such a sensor is set in motion, the responsible employee receives an e-mail. This way a robbery can be prevented.
Alarm at special events
In case of exceptional events an alert will be send to a maximum of five e-mail addresses. The list of special incidents e.g. excessive idle time, battery voltage to low is also very helpful.
Magic at the construction site
Another function to prevent the illegal use of construction equipment in certain areas is geofencing. These virtual territorial borders create an "invisible fence around an area". If a construction machine drives out from a predefined zone, an e-mail or short message will be send to a responsible person. At the same time, this function is used to improve customer service. If the mobile machine is not at the specified time on the marked, geofenced construction site no alarm will be released. So the procurement manager can quickly react with appropriate measures.
Time and cost optimisation by monitoring the vehicle parameters
The state of digital inputs and exits and measured values of analogue inputs are also displayed in the MOTONETIC web. Those values support a quick decision regarding repair or maintenance requirements of your fleet. This minimises costs, reduces downtime, provides an increased planning reliability and helps to optimise the ordering of spare parts.
With premiums to the perfect fleet
MOTONETIC Standard allows also to analyse the driving style and user behaviour via speed, speeding up and brake applications. The entrepreneurs could reward their drivers with bonuses to increase the motivation for adequate handling.
Reliable communication with extension telematics module MOTONETIC communicator
The combination MOTONETIC Standard, the optional extension module MOTONETIC communicator and the optional, mobile satnav Garmin nüvi 465Tpro truck create a secure and transparent communication. The messages or orders can be transferred directly to the mobile navigation display. If the text-based message is approved, the GPS position and arrival time will be shown automatically at the MOTONETIC web. This enables an optimal disposition, customer-friendly operation and the reduction of mobile phone calls.
Efficient self- and employees’ management with MOTONETIC limit-viewer
The extension telematics module MOTONETIC limit-viewer includes the alarm and memory function. Multi-stage alert information (pre-, main- and chief-alarm) and an action plan on the basis of criteria such as time, route, abrasion, attrition and technical inspections like HU, AU, SP can be defined with MOTONETIC limit-viewer. This way MOTONETIC limit-viewer can realize an efficient self- and employees’ management without additional complexity. The reminders make the memo book redundant. Basis of limit-viewer is the definition of threshold limit values in the MOTONETIC web.
How does MOTONETIC work?
The MOTONETIC LocBox with tracking module and GSM/GPRS antenna detect the location of the construction machinery. The coordinates and other data are transmitted via mobile network to the MOTONETIC M2M server. After data preparation the results of the construction machine are visible in the MOTONETIC web.
MOTOMETER offers the low-cost telematics system MOTONETIC Basic in addition to MOTONETIC Standard. More information on MOTONETIC and the free test login at www.motometer.de.
