Vehicles

This view is used to handle the various vehicles that are assigned to you. A figure of this view is presented below in Illustration 26. At the top, the red section, is a search area where you type in the criteria to be used for fetching the vehicles you are interested in. As you enter your criteria a row count is presented in the upper right area to show how many potential matches there are. The entries are also fetched as you type but only as many rows as fit your current view are fetched. As you scroll down more results will be fetched.

The number of possible columns to show is quite large, 24. The columns shown below are in default order. You will have to account for any changes you have made your self. The columns are:

Now, as there are so many columns present you have the option of selecting which ones you would like to see by right-clicking on the table header. If you would like your selection to be remembered between sessions, click the “Save headers” button after you have selected your columns.

There is a concept called “resource groups” you should be aware of in this panel. A resource group is simply a way to refer to a group of resources (WCU, Car) collectively. An example is when creating assignments you can select a resource group instead of the individual WCU:s to start a new assignment. Also, when showing the positions on a map, you select a resource group and press “Show position”, all WCU:s in that resource group will show. To see which resources are in a resource group you press the triangle to the left of the row and the row opens up to show the individual members. To show the members in the view you can rightclick the entry and select the option “find members” from the menu.

When selecting a row in the table the selected row changes to a blue shade. You can modify the description of the WCU by clicking in the “Edit Description” button and enter a new description. You can search among the vehicles log files by clicking the “Get log files” button.

Show the WCU Position

To see the last reported position of a vehicle, click the “Show Position” button which opens up a map view of where the vehicle was last known to be. You can view several vehicles simultaneously by ctrl- or shift-clicking the vehicles you are interested in. An example of the view is shown in Illustration 27 below.

To the right of the map view is a list of all the vehicles. Each vehicle is labeled with the license plate number and if you click on a vehicle entry on the right, an information pop-up will show for the vehicle. If you click on the marker of a vehicle, a new tab is opened in the browser that shows what Google Maps has to offer on that position. Also, just moving the mouse pointer over a marker will make the pop-up show.

View ECU software

It is possible to see which ECUs are in the vehicle along with each ECUs software number. Press the button “ECU SW” after you have selected one vehicle. The following view will be shown. As you can see in Illustration 29 each ECUs software number is shown along with when it was read. You can download the list as a tab-separated text file if you press “Download”.

View Trouble Codes

If an SoH assignment has been enabled to do trouble code read-outs, you can view the trouble codes by selecting the vehicle you are interested in and push the button “View DTCs”. In Illustration 28 below you can see an example of trouble codes. There are three columns in the table. To the left is the ECU name, next when the trouble code was committed to the portal and lastly, the actual trouble code. If you click in the column for the actual trouble code, a dialog opens with that particular trouble codes. You can extend the size of the dialog in order to examine the trouble codes in more detail. You can also search the trouble codes as you can see at the top of Illustration 28 on page 28.
