ShockWatch® FleetControl™ Manager: Leveraging Vehicle-Mounted Computers for Total Fleet Management
ShockWatch® FleetControl™ Manager leverages the capabilities of wireless, rugged vehicle-mounted computers (VMCs) to provide total fleet management in material handling environments.
Through FleetControl Manager's intuitive user interface, equipment operators utilize their existing VMC display screens to log in, access menus, and communicate with managers. The system continuously monitors and reports real-time data regarding equipment safety, utilization, productivity, and maintenance. Designed for large warehouses and logistics centers, FleetControl Manager optimizes companies' existing infrastructure and hardware to ensure safety and OSHA compliance, improve maintenance scheduling, and reduce damage-related costs for complete fleet management.
Features Designed for Maximum Performance:
- Fully configurable pre-shift safety checklist on VMC display
- External voltage input for monitoring and reporting forklift battery voltage
- Works with EquipCommand™ software menus for setting impact thresholds, warning levels, and event-inducing levels
- Internal motion sensor for detecting impact and reporting actual impact data
- Configurable activity input for monitoring and reporting multiple operation parameters such as fluid pressure, motion, lift count, and timing
- Undefined digital inputs for reporting yes/no and change-of-state data for monitoring run time, hydraulics usage, and transmission function
- Undefined analog inputs for monitoring and reporting operation variables
- Horns and piezo alarms to provide audible warnings
- CAN-bus port for easy interfacing with equipment (dependent on forklift OEM)
- Vehicle access control via multiple user-defined interfaces (iButtons, barcode, and proximity cards)
- Lockout/tagout capability and inactivity logoff
- User-definable maintenance alert
- Full user menu with text messaging
- Remote updating and configuration of device settings, firmware, and iButton key configuration
Innovative Software for Reliable Data Collection & Transmission
EquipCommand™ software allows you to configure your FleetControl Manager devices and receive the information you need for complete fleet management - allowing you to more effectively plan operations, reduce costs, and improve safety. Detailed reports and graphs communicate the data clearly so that you can analyze which procedures are working and which areas require improvement. Because the program transmits notices and alerts through your preferred method of communication, users can stay informed on the road, in the field or in remote parts of a facility.
