period of time. The report allows you to determine a maximum idling time
above which any idling activity will be recorded.
•Mileage Report: generates reports on the selected vehicle(s) mileage over a
requested period of time. The report provides the mileage completed per day
per vehicle as well as the total fleet mileage completed over the period
selected.
•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 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

CUSTOMER SITE V GEOFENCE
A key difference between a customer site and a geofence is that a customer site is
only defined on the Navman Fleet Manager and you can have any number of
customer sites. A geofence is sent to the vehicle and stored in the tracking device
located in the vehicle. There is a limit of 50 geofences that the vehicle can store, but
you can have as many geofences as you need.
Use customer sites when you know that a vehicle will be stopping and you want to
record how long that vehicle is stopped there or you want to define a location for
general reporting purposes. Use geofences for areas of interest where you want to
be 100% certain that a vehicle has passed through regardless of whether they stop
or not. A geofence can be used to define an area of operation that a vehicle works
within. You can then later determine the time and distance that a vehicle spends
inside that geofence.
11.3 GEOFENCES
Geofences requires advanced user permission.
A geofence is an area you can draw on the map in the Map Display Screen.
geofences appear as an orange shape and can be as large or as small as you want to
draw them.
The purpose of a ‘geofence’ is that it allows you to set your vehicles tracking device
(Halo/Halo Qube) so that all entries and exits into or out of a preset area can trigger
event logs and alert notifications. You can have up to 50 geofences per vehicle, with
a maximum of 20 sides per geofence.
When a vehicle enters/exits a geofence, the entry/exit will be logged into the
vehicles activity log with the icon ‘entry
Nav, the driver will also receive a geofence entry/exit message on the device
dependant on the ‘alert’ setup you have configured.
Two forms of geofence can be created:
1/ Polygonal geofence - defined custom shapes for geofences. This means shapes
can be drawn to follow the contours of the desired area precisely, making geofence
reporting more accurate. A maximum of 20 sides can be created per geofence area.
’ or ‘exit ’. If the vehicle has a MDT/M-

2/ Standard geofence - is a square/rectangular shape created around an area. This
is useful when creating large geofence areas or around simple points of interest eg
around a suburb, bridge
at the bottom of the map screen or rightclick on the location where you want to create a geofence and select ‘Add
Geofence’
2. Select the type of geofence you want to create: ‘polygonal’ or ‘standard’

details’ window will appear
b. For ‘standard geofence’, drag a box around the area. The ‘geofence
details’ window will appear as soon as you release your mouse
3. Enter a name for the geofence you have just drawn. If you want any entry or

This alert is used during working periods when the vehicle should be active and not
stationary for more than a defined time limit. This feature is ideal to alert the
OnlineAVL user and management of a vehicle that has been stationary when it
should be on the road. You can also define exemption periods, such as breaks, when
the vehicle is expected to be stationary.
UNAUTHORISED MOVEMENT ALERT
This alert is used during out-of-hours periods when the vehicle should not be active
such as nights, weekends and out-of-office hours. OR, if the vehicle is sometimes
used out-of-hours, the alert can be set to trigger if the vehicle crosses a geofence or
travels more than a pre-determined maximum distance.
Three different options are available for alerting on Unauthorised Movement
Alert on any event – the alert will trigger on the first activity seen during
the scheduled time period eg ignition on. Use this alert if the vehicle is not to
be touched at all during non-business hours.
Distance – this alert will trigger if the vehicle travels more than an allotted
distance during the scheduled period. Use this alert if drivers are allowed to
take their vehicles home with them or vehicles are being serviced in the yard,
but are limited in the distance they can travel.
Geofences – this alert can be set to trigger if the vehicle enters or exits a
geofence. Use if you want to allow the vehicle to operate within a defined
area eg a yard on the weekend but not leave this area. This alert requires
that the tracking device (Halo Qube/Dome) in the vehicle have the geofence
stored, otherwise it will not know to trigger the alert.
NOTE: The ‘Distance’ and ‘Geofences’ alerts can be used together or separately.

The above alert options have been provided to minimise instances of false alerting. If
you find that alerts are triggering too often when there is no problem, you may need
to tune the alert settings to reduce instances of false alerting.

11.5 DRIVER ID
Driver ID required advanced user permission and that the vehicle is fitted with an
MDT (Mobile Data Terminal).
Allows a driver to input a personalised PIN number into an MDT and “logon” to the
OnlineAVL system. As a result, driver activity can now be recorded and monitored
through reporting.
Driver ID is set up for each vehicle that the customer requires a logon PIN for:
1. Select ‘File’ > ‘Administration’ > ‘Vehicles’ > select the vehicle you want to
configure the Driver PIN for
2. Select the ‘Driver’ tab
3. Driver PIN required. Check this to enable Driver ID for the vehicle
4. Auto logoff. By default the driver PIN will automatically logoff when th e
vehicle ignition is turned off. However, Driver ID can be set to delay autologoff. 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.
5. MDT starts beeping. The MDT will to emit a loud warning beep if the driver
does not log in. You can increase or decrease this period here.
6. Vehicle events from the point of ignition before the driver logs on. In
order to logon, the driver must first start the vehicle. OnlineAVL is designed
to associate any events from a vehicle that occur without a PIN with a
reporting entity known as “Unknown Driver”. This settin g allow s OnlineAVL to
assume that the driver is indeed known and will automatically lin k events to
the driver so long as the driver logs in within *2* minutes from vehicle
ignition. This setting is configurable.
7. Click on ‘Send’
8. Click on ‘Refresh’ until data has appeared in the ‘Received’ field

settings

3. Click ‘OK’ to accept changes OR ‘CANCEL’ if you do not want to apply the
settings
NOTE:
No letters are allowed and the first number cannot be just zero.
The Multiple Logons check box is used for generic drivers. You can setup a basic
driver profile such as a “Valet” or “Temporary Driver” and assign a PIN number that
can be used by multiple drivers at the same time. Normally this check box will be left
unchecked. In the event that someone tries to logon with a PIN that is already in
use, that logon attempt will be denied and an event generated by OnlineAVL t hat an
attempt has been made to use someone else’s PIN number.
PIN numbers can be any number from 1 to 999999 (maximum 6 numbers).
