The provider cannot guarantee the availability and accuracy of the map data. The standard map is OpenStreetMaps. The addresses and street names are coded via TeleAtlas data openstreetmaps from the GPS coordinates. TeleAtlas is paid one time licence for one device on its own without updates. Updates can only be made by TeleAtlas. TeleAtlas is available for most of the countries in Europe and the Middle East (GCC countries, Egypt and north Africa). If the position is not in one of these countries, it will be shown with only the coordinates without the street names.

...

Openstreetmaps.org is a public domain adress service, and anyone can add or change streetnames to openstreetmaps.org. 

Additional maps (e. g. BING Maps or GOOGLE maps) can be shown, optionally added as a paid option if needed. There is not going to be a contract with the map provider, if this happens. If needed, the licence agreements are provided by the user. Additional mapping providers such as Google can be shown, but it is mandatory part of our standard deliveries and the customer is liable to enter in any license agreement with such mapping providers if requests.

Effects of different GPS Tracking Devices

• Please read through this chapter very carefully. Our GPS devices are always delivered with a standard configuration. Special configurations can differ by each customer and can’t always be documented.
• The software can only work as intended, when the devices are installed correctly.
• Not all of the functions in the software are supported by all our different devices.
• There are can also be functions of the devices which are not supported by our software. 
• Also there are functions for devices which are not standardized or only optional.
• The settings differ from device to device
• The tests are always done with the device itself. For details please contact our office directly.
• Control the device for its accuracy to avoid longer times of errors
• Tolerances: modern GPS devices are very correct, say position, date and time, kilometres and speed; but there can also be errors. (e. g. wrong GPS signal
• Please note that this device is only delivering the exact time point of the GPS position (not in between the positions) and that can differ from the reality.
• Please note that in very rare cases there are GPS „jumps“ in the history. They can cause inaccurate positions and wrong speeds. With exceptions, these errors can be analysed in the historic raw data files.

Importance of the ignition for the software

If the box is only connected to the power via ignition plus, the timestamps are shown with a bad or no GPS fix. (30 seconds up to 4 minutes).

If the box has no ignition signal on the digital input, there can’t be any entries of waiting times with ignition ON and the device can’t differ between it, the logbook will be empty if this is the case!

Definition for waiting-time, idle-time with ignition ON and driving time

...

Certain tracking devices have no ignition input (e.g. personal mobile battery tracker CT07). They send data when the device is moving. Short movements below 10 meter are set to 0 to show stops. Else the device would always detect small movement even if you are stopped.

The legal requirements for using and accepting a logbook differ from country to country. There is no guarantee that your financial authorities accept our logbook just because we call it a „logbook“. The term as such is no guarantee. Please refer to our standard terms.Normally our  Normally our logbooks are very precise. But external factors (GPS jumps, problems with ignition, no GPS fix) can affect the logbook. Please check your logbook from time to time.

1. Only selected tracking devices support a connection with a navigation device.
2. Requires a compatible Garmin navigation device, we can provide you with a list of devices
3. Requires a special FMI cable
4. The Garmin device must be installed properly in the car (with permanent power)
5. The software must be enabled to support navigation.
6. The sleep mode on the tracking device must be de-activated and “Navi connected” must be set in the asset configuration

Requirements for

...

• The Time Data Table needs to be configured in the software options
• The booking times are only processed with supported hardware accessory.
• The booking times are transferred via iButton, RFID cards or Garmin devices immediately. Therefore a stable active GSM network coverage, working GPS and a GPRS connection are necessary. In case the vehicle is not moving, you should start the ignition first so that the tracking device wakes up from sleep mode.
• Every booking is confirmed with an acoustic buzzer signal or with a confirmation message from the navigation device. If there is no confirmation (no beep and no feedback), the bookings must be added to the software later on manually.
• Please contact the provider for the use of Tempore:
• The Tempore Device Center (Version 1.04.1935 or higher) must be installed on the PC
• The GPS Fleet Software interface must be configured in the Tempore Device Center options
• The GPS Fleet Software must be activated for the use of Tempore
