Drive book     

Various views of Drive book:

By drives – this view provides standard drive book which involves all necessary information. It contains departure and arrival destination, time, distance, drive time, standing with engine idle, driver`s name, fuel consumption statistics, maximal and average speed.

 By days – drive book per day of chosen time period. It contains time and destination of first and last drive in a day. You exactly know how long has vehicle been driving, and what was its distance.

Detailed view – shows speed graphs to each drive in drive book and other statistic parameter of vehicle.

Utilization chart – shows vehicle workload in chosen time period. In the case of trucks can dispatcher controls drive time and pauses keeping.

Summary view – total values of vehicle`s and drive`s parameters for chosen period.

Driver`s logging (via dallas key)     

Driver`s logging into system via dallas key can make using vehicles more transparent. Each drive is connected with concrete driver and vice-versa. For companies and also vehicle owners is this information very useful, because they know, who and how often the vehicle drives.

List of vehicles     

List of vehicles is basic output of monitoring system Dispecer. In this list is displayed state of vehicles (stop/ride), actual location, state of kilometers, how the vehicle works out, driver`s name and another information about him. According to user`s need is possible to choose which information about vehicle will be displayed in the table and how (order).

Route maps     

Route map provides view about actual location all or specific vehicles. On the route map can be displayed routes of individual vehicles during the specific time period also with engine idle. Start and end route destination are distinguished by different color.

Own destination setting     

Predefined own destinations are used in drive book generating. Own destination can be each place, which users need in their work – f. e. destination of unloading/loading, parking, service place. User can use different views on route maps provided by Google map (hybrid, map, satellite).

Statistics of drives     

System Dispecer offers summary statistics of drives. It allows compare data among vehicles and evaluates fleet drives at the same time. In the list is displayed information like:

• EVN (Evidence Vehicle Number)
• Driver`s name
• Moved kilometers
• Drive time
• Speed (maximal, average)
• Fuel level
• Fuel price ...

All data is possible to export into .pdf and .xls files. 

Service event control     

Very useful function is vehicle maintenance, which monitor service events, oil changes, tyres, technical and ecological control or first aid box validity and other events. At each vehicle is displayed concrete event and its state.

Except predefined events characteristic for concrete vehicle type can be add (in system) own events depend on the time or moved kilometers. When the event starts, receives user notification about it.

Evidence of expenses

In system you can keep an account of various operational and fixed costs arising from vehicle park operation. These costs are f. e. fuel costs, toll, maintenance, services, emission control, insurances, etc.

Interconnection with fuel companies     

System Dispecer offers interconnection with many fuel companies. Based on data gained from fuel companies has user review about average fuel consumption and operational costs on vehicle. All data about refueling is very easy to import into system. Data are also used for calculation of average vehicle fuel consumption. Monitoring system Dispecer provides interconnection with:

• CCS
• Esso
• Shell
• OMV
• Slovnaft
• Eurowag
• DKV

CAN (FMS, OBD, VW group) module   

Providing exact data from vehicle control unit

Monitoring system Dispecer prepares and evaluates data from monitoring device placed within the vehicle. From gained data can evaluate vehicle and driver activity, do various statistics and make employees work easier. More effective way how to gain information is to connect monitoring device to vehicle control unit and have “pure” data about vehicle.

In case of trucks: 

• Engine rpm
• Engine temperature
• Work of tachograph
• Fuel consumption
• State of kilometers
• Speed
• Time
• Date
• Service events
• Gross vehicle weight
• Maximal weight of set
• Vehicle doors (open/close)

Drive style evaluation

Drive style evaluation is report which analyzes vehicle`s data and parameters gained from control unit.

Data provided to customer about vehicle:

•  Accelerator pedal position
•  Speed profile of drive
•  Engine usage during drive
•  Optimal RPM of vehicle
• Vehicle`s support system (tempomat, retarder)

Speed profile analysis

Minimal, average and maximal values occurred in each speed range. Speed ranges are divided according to speed used in traffic jam, city traffic, driving out of the city and on highway.

Vehicle speed change

Chart provides information about speed, more definite about acceleration and deceleration of vehicle. Data are displayed in four ranges – stable speed, moderate acceleration and deceleration, urban traffic and sudden speed changes.

RPM usage

System can differentiate diesel and gas engine. Mark near the chart says, how efficient was RMP used during drive.

Efficient RPM zone

In a pie chart is expressed by percentage, how often driver has driven in efficient RPM during drive.

Engine idle

From gained data can system evaluated, for how long has a vehicle really driven and for how long has been engine idle.

Accelerator pedal position

In a chart is displayed movement of accelerator pedal. Each position is down in a chart. 

Vehicle support system usage

Trucks and buses with CAN-BUS FMS 2.0 and newer, can system provided information about vehicle`s support system. In a chart is displayed occurrence of each parameter – tempomat, brake and retarder during chosen time period.

Consumption

System monitors not only state of fuel but also each change of fuel level in a fuel tank. Data about fuel are measured by vehicle`s control unit. User can define optimal consumption for chosen vehicle directly in system Dispecer. After that is this value compared with real consumption.

All mentioned analysis can be found also in “Detailed view” in Log book.

Fuel level and consumption module   

Monitoring device placed in the vehicle supports direct fuel measurement in the fuel tank by fuel probe. This way of fuel measurement records not only consumed fuel (as in case of fuel-flow meter) but also fueled up. Measurement by fuel probe has variation to 1% of the fuel tank volume and it’s the most certain and most exact way how to gain information about fuel level state. System of fuel measurement is fully automatic and works without any intervention.

Monitoring device measures fuel level nonstop – during drive and also during standing. Each move in the fuel tank is noticed. In case of suspect fuel leakage is this move highlighted in system Dispecer by red color.

Module of travelling expenses calculation     

Travelling expenses calculation in the system Dispecer is very prompt. System is linked by tariff from the MF of SR. Each change is automatically noticed and correct in the system. Calculated data are displayed in the report which can be also printed. 

Security module
