Enabling location speed monitoring using OBC

Marisa Potgieter
  • Updated

Decide which location-based over speeding option you would like to adopt.

Each option is mutually exclusive and cannot be used in conjunction with the other:

  1. Location speed monitoring using on-board computer (OBC).
  2. Location speed monitoring using MiX Rovi.

Option 1 - Location speed monitoring using OBC

The location speed monitoring feature is available for editing on the mobile device settings at template level. This feature is visible, but not editable at library level. If you need to create a new template, view this article for help.

  • Click Manage.
  • Under Config Admin, click Templates.
  • Click the Mobile device template tab on the left.
  • Choose the relevant mobile device template that you would like to view or edit.
  • Make sure the F1 line has been connected and recording speed using the road speed parameter when using an FM unit:

  •  When using a MiX 4000 or MiX 6000 it must be connected on the speed line:

  • Click the green hyperlinked name at the top to access the mobile device settings to enable the on-board location speed monitoring feature on the OBC.

  • Scroll down to the Location speed monitoring and check the box to enable this. (If this option is not available, make sure it has not been enabled on the MiX Rovi as it cannot be enabled on both). Enabling this feature will automatically make a Location Library visible at Library level in Config Admin. Go to the Location library and make the relevant locations available. 

Notes:

  • This feature requires a minimum Breakaway set DDR version of E15.02.10.x.
  • Changing a mobile device template will automatically update the configuration settings for all the assets using the template. All the assets will then show a "Configuration changed" status and will require the configuration to be compiled and uploaded for the changes to be effective on the mobile device.
  • Note: You cannot make changes to the asset level configuration for locations. This can only be done on template level. 

Option 2 - Location speed monitoring using MiX Rovi
