Fleet Management
Programmable Events: Events can be
defined to both transmit and act on complex events. For example – activating
the horn and transmitting when a tanker truck activates its engine while
unloading fuel at the fuel depot.
Speed restrictions: Programmable alerts whenever the vehicle goes
above/ below a pre-defined speed, to detect over hastiness and unauthorized
stops.
Mileage: Ability to alert every
specific number of kilometers.
Curve detection: Support for
transmitting at every turn, for better
route visualization.
Motor is running while stationary:
Alert when the motor is running and the vehicle is left stationary at a
specified time range.
Perimeter
based alerts: Geo-fencing alerts
when a vehicle is entering/ leaving a specified area at a specified
time.
Fuel Measuring: Reduce your fuel costs
by monitoring and measuring your driver usage
of fuel. Connect your Helios unit directly to the
vehicle's fuel gauge or to an external accessory for measuring fuel level. This
connection will enable you to compare fuel consumption with distance travelled,
minimizing the risk of fuel theft or excessive consumption.
Values Monitoring: Monitoring of analog
inputs to alert when voltage/ temperature are exceeding.
Driver Identification: By using different
identifiers such as Dallas iButton, Remote Controls, Keypad or RF Keypad Codes,
the unit sends the code of the current vehicle driver to the center.
Mileage Transmissions: Periodic mileage
transmissions for the needed vehicle's maintenance.
Automated Tracking: Automatic support
for vehicle tracking at specified times, without sending additional commands to
the vehicle.
Complete Security System: Complete
operational security system with different logic states to detect break-ins and
report to the center.
Towing Detection: GPS-based detection
of movement while the system is armed,
produces a towing alert to the center & can also detect a tow alert by
recording the cellular antennas in its vicinity.
Low Power Warning: Warning transmission
whenever the vehicle's main power goes below a predefined threshold.
Disarming Devices: Disarming devices should
be available, examples are keypad and RF Keypad, remote control, and Dallas
iButton.
Gradual Stop: Option to gradually stop
the vehicle by sending pulses to the immobilizer or fuel pump.
Vehicle and Driver Protection
Emergency Button: Support for emergency
button to invoke an immediate high-priority transmission to the center.
Accident and Harsh Braking Detector:
Built-in accelerometer serves as both accident and a harsh braking detector.
Auto Lock: Support for
locking/unlocking the doors whenever the motor is starting/stopping
Inputs/Outputs
Digital Inputs: usually used for
Ignition, Emergency, Doors, Arming, and Disarming
1 Pulse Counter Input: To measure
odometer pulses, or any sort of pulses generated by external devices.
Analog Inputs: (programming): Each input can
be programmed to be used in order
to trigger transmissions under any condition, and to arm or disarm the security
system.
Main power indication: A main power
measurement to indicate the vehicle's battery voltage.
Canbus connection: Direct connection to
the vehicle's computer using the CANBus protocol.
Odometer Support: Support
for digital odometer to read its pulses and calculate
the vehicle's mileage.
Pulses Width Modification: Ability to
set the width and number of the lock and unlock pulses.
Communication
Cellular Connectivity: Support for GSM
networks (GPRS or optional 3G), while using both the SMS channel and the data
channel. Supported universal bands are 850/900/1800/1900MHz. Optional support
for CDMA, HSDPA networks.
Satellite Connectivity: Using an
external device, an Iridium connection may be used when out of cellular
coverage.
TCP Connectivity: Support for the
GPRS/1x TCP/IP networks by either staying online at all times, or coming online
when a transmission is initiated.
DNS Support: Connection to a server by
its host name. Backup Server: Backup host name support in case of main server
has gone offline.
Encryption: Protocol encryption to
provide maximum security between the vehicle and the center.
External Protocol Support: Support for
external devices for 3rd party protocols, such as text terminal or RFID readers
Navigation Support: Support for
external devices for navigation, such as handheld or laptop computers.
Anti-jamming: Support for a gradual
stop of the vehicle if a theft transmission has failed due to communication
frequencies jamming.
Compact Protocol: Less than 70 bytes
per message enables very small bandwidth usage and saved communication costs.
Voice Calls: Hands-free kit to support
voice call from and to the vehicle. Ability to initiate a voice call from the
unit without the knowledge of the driver.
Over-The-Air commands
Firmware Upgrade: Over the air firmware
upgrade to apply new features to already-installed units.
Status Requests: Ability to request the
latest status of the vehicle, and receive the entire information about all the
inputs, outputs, and location information.
Tracking: Option to remotely engage
periodic transmissions from the unit at intervals of at least 10 seconds to 7
days.
Tracking Interval By Channel: Different
transmissions intervals can be set to each communication channel used
–SMS/GPRS/Roaming.
Parameters Programming: Complete
programming of each and every one of the unit's parameters over the air.
Remote Arm/Disarm: Option to arm or
disarm the vehicle from the center.
Output State Changing: Option to
remotely activate/ deactivate different outputs, such as locking/unlocking the
doors, starting/ stopping the siren, activating/ deactivating the immobilizer.
Learn Dallas/Remote Control: Remote activation of extra Dallas iButton and Remote Control.
Mileage setting: Remote update to
synchronize the unit and the vehicle internal mileage counter
Voice Call Request: Request the unit to
call a specific number for a voice call to communicate with the driver and/or
hear the activity inside the vehicle.
Text Messaging: Send a text message
to the
vehicle's text terminal.
Miscellaneous
Garage Mode: Special condition in which
the alarm system is turned off and no
emergency transmissions are sent.
This condition is time-limited.
Internal Logging: Whenever a
transmission has failed to be sent, the entire message is
saved to the memory for later transmission. 15 thousand complete messages,
including statuses, can be recorded this way.
Low Power Mode: Option to switch to a
low power mode (up to 3mA) whenever the alarm system is armed. Best used for
motorcycles.
Fully Certified: Fully certified and
complies with the highest standards of the automotive industry.
Waterproof (IP65): A silicon case that
gives maximum protection from water and extreme weather conditions is
available.
Location
GPS Receiver: Built in GPS receiver
allows real-time tracking and on-board location-based analysis.
Mileage by GPS: Advanced algorithm to
calculate the vehicle's mileage based on the GPS, without the need for any
external connections to the vehicle's odometer. Last Location Saving: Saving of
the vehicle's last position, in case of going out of GPS coverage.
