Read unique metrics on request
- Full control over the operation of complex equipment (agricultural, construction, industrial, municipal, etc.)
- Access to hidden vehicle metrics
- Access to data outside of the standard FMS data spectrum
- Individual control type for each piece of equipment
Did the taxi driver ride ‘idle’ or deliver passengers according to ‘his’ meter? Has the garbage truck actually emptied all the containers, or has it passed them? How many lifts did your truck crane or loader make and at what sites? Did the tractor operator lower the sweeping broom or just roll without load? Was the grader really blowing snow off the road, or was it just an illusion?
At the same time, in any mode of transport, our experts find the most relevant parameters for your scope.
How the System works
The ability to remotely monitor data that is priority for your scope, thanks to individually designed sensors from BelTransSputnik
How it worksIt is no secret that one of the most reliable and accurate ways to control various parameters of equipment is to read from the CAN- / OBD- bus provided by the manufacturer. However, not every car (device) provides the possibility of monitoring (especially remotely) precisely the data that is priority for your scope. Especially when it comes to complex machines, which are often equipped with additional equipment. How then do you know if the snow blower was really driving with the brush on, or if the driver turned it off to save (and further drain) fuel? How many lifts did the truck crane make at your site and how much did it cheat at your expense at the next one? And what was the axle load after loading the next batch of cargo into the trailer?
Our specialists will develop your own scheme for the equipment with a set of individual sensors that will remotely provide you with a complete set of necessary information via CAN- / OBD-bus connection.
A CAN adapter is used to connect special sensors and relay data. Its installation takes an average of 30-40 minutes.
How to connect the CAN adapterDirectly for the connection of special sensors and data retransmission, a CAN adapter is used — a removable unit of compact dimensions, through which communication is carried out between additional sensors and the on-board computer of the car. As a result, information from the vehicle’s on-board system is added to the data calculated by the satellite module itself and sensors.
To install a CAN adapter, you do not need to disassemble the dashboard and interior of the car or lay a ton of wiring. It is connected to a place in the car specially designed for it, and installation on average takes no more than 30-40 minutes. If your car is under warranty, then the connection to the CAN-bus will be made contactless through special additional CAN clips.
Our know-how allows us to calculate from especially complex equipment (construction and agricultural machines made in Japan, USA, etc.) even those metrics that its manufacturer does not want to give out to the buyer for free
How is it possibleOften the manufacturer requires the purchase of extremely expensive additional systems through which he agrees to give out the information you are interested in.
In such cases, BelTransSputnik engineers conduct special studies of your equipment. We have to listen gradually, find and decipher information important to you from an endless stream of data. These works are very time-consuming and are our know-how.
Our client receives on his computer online the information that is usually sold to him for extra money by a company dealership.
Implementation effect
Connection via CAN/OBD-bus is one of the most reliable and accurate ways to control all kinds of vehicle metrics
What kind of information do you getDespite the ease of installation, connection via CAN / OBD-bus is one of the most reliable and accurate ways to control all kinds of equipment parameters, regardless of whether it uses standard equipment sensors installed by the manufacturer, or additional modules installed by BelTransSputnik specialists.
You will receive information about fuel consumption at the engine injectors, fuel level in the tank, turnovers, mileage and speed from the instrument panel, gas pedal penetration depth, axle load, presence of a passenger in the passenger compartment, opening doors and hood, identifiers of actually empty garbage containers, operation of attachments, engine errors and other information from actually any type of cars and trucks, as well as special equipment.
Additional equipment control tools from BelTransSputnik will allow you not only to optimize workflows and minimize the risk of wasteful use of company resources, but also to normalize labor discipline at the enterprise.
In what scopes the System is required
Install temperature sensors, door opening sensors and axle load sensors in a heavy-duty vehicle? No problem. Do you want to remotely monitor how many bales of straw the harvester actually pressed, how many garbage containers the garbage truck loaded, how many lifting and lowering cycles the tower crane performed? We will implement this as well
Agriculture and utilities, construction and manufacturing, freight and passenger transportation: we control almost all automotive technical areas.
Our customers result
After the implementation of the GPS monitoring system, we immediately felt the result:
- fuel costs have reduced significantly
- several large fuel thefts have been prevented
- got a real opportunity to write off fuel on the fact
- for now, 99% of fuel draining issues at the factory are excluded.
Now we are adding units of equipment, and we are spending the same amount of money for the fuel purchase.
We have been cooperating with BelTransSputnik since 2010. And during this time, we have implemented many solutions that have been customized specifically for us — this is particularly nice. Definitely, BelTransSputnik’s solutions help to optimize business processes and have a positive effect on customers’ loyalty.
- first investments paid off immediately and repeatedly.
- customers loyalty increasing by introducing courier tracking — customers can track the arrival time and the movement of the courier on the map.
- integration with current ACS was set up.
