Events
The Events page offers tools to track and analyze vehicles events and trips, including detailed logs, event timelines, and trip summaries. To access the events page, navigate to Vehicles > Table > Show Events or use the Events button on the Inspect page of a vehicle.
The Events Page is divided into two main sections:
List⚓︎
On the left, you’ll see a list of events sorted by date. The most recent events are displayed at the top, and you can find older events by scrolling down.
At the top of the events list, you’ll find the filter and the option to export the filtered events to a CSV file.
Additionally, the currently selected filter settings are displayed as familiar tags.
Map⚓︎
The map displays events as a route. When tracking is enabled, you mostly see a clear path connecting destinations. If tracking is disabled, you will likely notice single dots representing individual events or clusters of dots indicating groups of events.
The map itself has interactive features, such as:
- Zoom In/Out: You can easily get a closer or broader view of the map, making it simple to find exactly what you’re looking for.
- Change Map View: Switch between different types of map views, like satellite or map, to get the perspective you need.
- Home: Takes you back to the map’s starting point, based on the shown events.
Timeline⚓︎
The timeline lets you focus on specific trip segments and their events. Here’s how to use it:
-
View Events: Scroll through the Event List on the left to see all recorded events, such as parking brake status, headlights, and gearshift position.
-
Explore the Timeline: Select a column in the timeline below the map to drill down into a 5-minute interval. The map zooms into the corresponding route section, and the Event List updates to show events from that timeframe.
Return to Full View: Click the Back button to exit the drill-down view. The map and Event List will reset to display the entire trip.
Filter⚓︎
The number of events can quickly become overwhelming. To find what you need, click Filter to open the Event Filter:
- Time Range: Choose a predefined time range like 30 minutes, 1 hour, 3 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, or 30 days. For a custom range, use the date picker to set the date, start and end times manually.
- Event Type: Select the types of events you want to see. You can add more event types by clicking ‘Select Event Type’.
-
More Options:
- Hide Tracking Events: Check this box to hide tracking events.
- Undo Changes: Click to reset any changes made.
- Cancel: Click to close the modal without applying changes.
- Apply Filter: Click to apply the selected filters and search for events.
Event Export⚓︎
You can now export event and tracking data as a file directly to share with authorities. Click the Download icon next to the Filter button to open the Event Export Dialog. Click Export to compile the data and automatically start downloading the export file. The file name follows the pattern “events_vehicle plate_date_time” and saves in your browser’s download folder.
Detail Panel⚓︎
When you select an event from the Events list, the Detail Panel opens on the right side of the screen. This panel gives you key information about the selected event, including:
- Related events
- Event location
- Raw event data
- Who sent the command
Initiated by⚓︎
The Initiated by section shows who sent a command to the vehicle. This helps you track how actions happen in your fleet.
For example, you can see who:
- Locked or unlocked a vehicle
- Enabled or disabled driving
- Activated a SIM card in the vehicle’s CloudBoxx
Sometimes, commands and events happen close together. To view them easily, click the lookup icon to open the Linked Commands table. This shows all commands sent within 5 minutes of the selected event.
