In addition to geofence alert messages, there are other alert message e-mail
options in inViu pro, for instance, when the battery voltage
level falls below a certain level. The idle alert message is sent when a
vehicle or construction equipment remains idling for longer than the
pre-defined limit, eliminating unnecessary fuel use.
It can also be called the “special incidents” alert. You can attach cables
to various components of a vehicle from an ENAiKOON locating device, allowing
you to monitor other components of the vehicle or construction equipment. The
operation of a snow plough or salt mill on a snow removing vehicle or the
conditions of a concrete pump on a concrete mixer can be easily monitored.
Another possible application is the monitoring of the door contacts. When the
doors are opened and closed in a vehicle, a message is sent to the servers,
similar to the previously mentioned scenarios, and this information is then
displayed in inViu pro.
Two new meaningful vehicle operations are now combined with the e-mail alert
messages in inViu pro:
It is now possible to only send the alert messages for a “special incident”
when the trackable is inside a geofence at the time of the special incident
It is now possible to only send the alarm messages for a “special incident”
when the trackable is outside of a geofence at the time of the special
incident
Case study:
One of our customers, a large bakery chain, had baked goods stolen from the
delivery trucks by their own delivery drivers.
Solution:
The door contact switches from the rear delivery doors were connected to the
digital inputs on the telematic devices ENAiKOON locate-04 and ENAiKOON
locate-06. Once these doors were opened, the door contact switches sent a
signal of the change of status. This information was then immediately sent from
the ENAiKOON locate-06 to the inViu servers. In the web portal, inViu
pro, an alert was set up to send a message when the doors were opened.
Result:
The customer received an alert message every time the rear delivery doors were
opened. Now the alert message is only sent when the vehicle is outside of
predefined geofences. Since these geofences are marked around regular bakery
stops, all unapproved “on the road” stops are monitored.
Conclusion:
If someone opens the rear delivery doors of the bakery delivery truck and it
is not one of the regularly scheduled delivery stops, the customer is
immediately notified with an alert e-mail message with the location and
timestamp. This allows the customer to promptly react to the situation.
All in all, it is a very effective solution for this particular
customer. 
Another stolen van was returned to its grateful owner in the Netherlands thanks
to the locate series device that was installed in it. The thieves were unaware
that Generali Verzekeringsgroep had the foresight to install tracking devices
in their vans and cars and that when the van was then stolen, that their every
movement was being tracked in real-time in ENAiKOON’s web portal.
When an employee of Generali, who had parked the van in front of his house,
noticed that it was no longer there he immediately called his supervisor. With
a quick look in the ENAiKOON web portal they were able to determine exactly
where the van was. The thieves had driven it across town and it was parked on a
quiet residential street. At this point Generali decided to inform the
authorities about what had happened. The police then wanted to watch the van to
try and catch the perpetrators.
This was an excellent plan on the part of the local police, because of this
one criminal was apprehended. At first the van was towed to the police head
quarters for a search. There they discovered tools that were most likely used
for already or would in the future be used for a burglary. The thieves had
tried to manipulate the motor management system of the vehicle as well. A
mechanic then had a look over the van, but is now back in the hands of its
rightful owners. Thanks to the ENAiKOON device and the quick thinking on behalf
of the local police there is also one less criminal on the streets in the
Netherlands.
According to Hans Verhaar the Expertisedienst Manager at Generali
Verzekeringsgroep “When our van was stolen we were at first shocked. Then we
looked in inViu pro to see the location of the vehicle. We were able to find
our van and then we told the police exactly what had happened. It was recovered
and one person was arrested as a result. Thanks to the device from ENAiKOON we
were able to recover our vehicle easily without a lot of hassle. We knew
immediately where to go to retrieve it and could tell the police where it was
located.”
If the map data needs to be updated it is sufficient to simply empty the
browsers cache and restart inViu pro.
By optimising the entire software the online map starts and loads much
faster than before.
Search function improved and the display of the “stated positions”
expanded
The search function in the trackable list in the window next to the map has
been improved. The search covers not only trackable data but the “stated
positions” as well.
Two columns have been added to the display window menu table for the
“stated positions”. Now the “trip type” and “reason for the stop” are
shown.
That means that only the important columns are displayed in the overview,
but that the intelligent search function finds all relevant data quickly and
reliably.
Text and tool tip box are now included in trackable groups
In the display fields “text” and “tool tip” that appear next to a trackable
when they are activated or when there is a mouse roll-over are now displayed in
the “trackable group”.
To change the settings for these click “edit settings” on main menu on the
left side, then click on “edit reports” and select the icon next to “trackable
list with statistics”.
In the fifth column all of the setting to permanently display the “textbox”
and in the sixth column with the header “tooltip” are the setting for the mouse
rollover display of this information.
Simply check the box and see the on the map the trackable group in the
textbox and / or in the tooltip box.

Often used in business for goal setting, in geocaching as something to find,
sometimes as a gaming term, and most definitely as an adjective, the term
trackable is always used as a noun at ENAiKOON.
A trackable is something that can be tracked using GPS devices. Ranging from
vehicles to equipment and people to animals, trackables can be static or mobile
and require telematics technology for monitoring their safety or protecting
them against theft.
For the average consumer trackables may include a car, a small child,
someone of old age or special needs, pets, a boat, or a camping trailer.
On the other hand, depending on their industry, businesses may want to track
company cars, trucks, shipping containers, delivery parcels, employees,
equipment, machinery, or any asset of value.
The reasons for using telematics for your trackables varies, for many it’s
just to monitor the location of the trackable. Sometimes it’s for theft
prevention and recovery. Other times it’s to record operating hours of
machinery and equipment.
In ENAiKOON’s online GPS tracking software, inViu, users can easily manage
the tracking of all of their trackables on the user-friendly interface where
the locations of all trackables are displayed on a map or as GPS coordinates.
