Live Tracking Map

From the main screen or from within the Admin menu, click Back To Map.

The live map will show the vehicles last reported position. Each GPS unit should transmit location information every 20 - 30 seconds while moving.

The best way to view your vehicles is to select a zoom level appropriate to your local metro area. To aid in selecting popular centerpoints and zoom levels, there are 3 Metro buttons to allow the user to instantly adjust the map view. To Set the configuration for each button, navigate to the Company Settings page and click the associated SET button.

Attributes associated with each vehicle icon can be viewed by clicking the vehicle icon.

On Map Buttons and Navigation
The "on map" buttons and navigation are standard Google Maps functionality.

At the top left of you maps window you will find navigation buttons for setting the zoom level of the map as well as circular button used for panning the map (also remember standard right and left clicks on the mouse will adjust your zoom level). The Add Marker button will add a marker to your map window which can be edited and removed from the Places Menu.

At the top right of the map, there is a button for enabling traffic (most major cities) and toggling between a map view and a satellite view.

Understanding Vehicle Icons Colors and Symbols
	A Green Icon represents an active vehicle on the map.
	A Green Icon with a Stop Sign represents a vehicle that is active on the map, but is not moving. The STOP sign is applied to the green icon when the vehicle is stopped for a period of time equal to the Maximum Stop Time Setting within the Company Settings Menu.
	A Green Icon with a green Key ON icon represents an active vehicle on the map whose last communication was received with the Key in the On position. Note: If you did not wire the White wire to switched power, the feature will not behave correctly.
