FLEETCONNECT OFFICE
The FleetConnect Ofce contains four executable
programs FCRead.exe, FCEdit.exe, FCLoad.exe and an
installation program for the USB button reader.
FCEdit is a graphical user interface for ofce computers
where users can manage operational data, validate any
changes made in the eld (for example adding a new
customer), congure print tickets, and change system
settings. FCEdit also plays a large role in the setup of a
FleetConnect System by helping map RFID buttons and
populating the FleetConnect database. The USB button
reader plugs into any ofce computer USB port and
reads the ID number of the RFID buttons for FCEdit to
map the RFID buttons.
FCRead converts transaction les, created by DMS
i1000s in the eld, into ASCII text les for use in FCEdit
and third party software.
DB MANAGER
DB Manager is used to setup and manage wireless
communication between DMS i1000s in the trucks and
personal computers in your ofce. DB Manager contains
two programs LCPSetup.exe and DBManager.exe. The
rst program, LCPSetup.exe, aligns communication
parameters and conducts testing to conrm wireless
communication between the ofce PC and the DMS
i1000. The second, DBManager.exe, species the DMS
i1000s in the eld, sets the le paths to the ofce PC,
sets a schedule to check for modied FleetConnect
database les and sends those les to the DMS i1000s
in the eld.
CELL MODEM
Cell modems enable long distance wireless data
transmissions between DMS i1000s in the eld and
ofce PCs. Cell modems and service contracts are
purchased separately from a cellular service provider.
RF TRANSCEIVERS
The RF transceivers are designed for short, line-of-sight
wireless transmissions between DMS i1000s in the eld
and the ofce PC. .
USB FLASH MEMORY DEVICE
The USB Flash Memory Device is a data repository used
to transfer data between the DMS i1000 Module and the
ofce PC. A USB Flash Memory Device is included with
the purchase of a DMS i1000.
