Login

An anonymous user logs in automatically when the OBC starts.

When the ”common” user (driver) logs in manually, than the anonymous user

automatically logs out.

When the driver logs out, than the anonymous user automatically logs in

again.

The anonymous user makes it possible to always get information from the

vehicle even if the driver does not log in, for instance temporary staff.

Driver card login: when inserting the driver card the driver will be

automatically logged in, if the driver card number is added in Weboffice.

If another driver cards is inserted when a driver still is logged in (if selected

Continue at card withdrawal), there are two options.

If the new driver card match, the last user is logged out and the new user is

logged in automatically.

If the new driver card does not match, it will raise a question if the new user

wants to log in manually or continue to be logged in as the old user. Always log in

as yourself!

Refuel reports are submitted to the office of each refill. Easy to monitor fuel

consumption per vehicle and per driver.

NOTE! The Refuel report is valid only for fuel

For other fluids (such as AdBlue, washer fluid) use the Refill report.

Eco-driving

Eco-driving Background

Fuel consumption is affected by several different things:

• Vehicle characteristics (engine, axles, weight, height, etc.)

• External factors (road conditions, weather, topography, etc.)

• Driver behavior

The driver can only impact his/her behavior

Measuring the behavior is more fair than to measure consumption

Eco-driving General

All measurements are relative

• The result is compared with the driving time and driving distance

Feedback in real-time

• Right now values – coaches the driver while driving

Color indications – easy to understand

• Red indicates a worse behavior

• Green indicates a good behavior

• Yellow indicates that you are heading a ”registration”

Measurements in percent – easy to understand and relate to

• Red percent should be reduced

• Green percent should be increased

• Press on Eco-driving in

Eco-driving Rollout

Rollout is calculated when:

The vehicle speed decrease slowly (less than1 m/s²)

The brake pedal is not applied

The accelerator pedal is not applied (no fuel consumption)

To maximize rollout:

Focus on planning stops ahead and lower the speed in a preferred way when

possible without braking. Good performance: 75-100%.

Eco-driving Overspeed

Overspeed is calculated when:

The vehicle speed is over 83 km/h.

Note! If the vehicle is driving downward a slope faster than 83 km/h no

overspeed is calculated since no fuel is consumed.

To minimize overspeed:

Focus on keeping the right top speed and not driving too fast, and keeping a

constant speed.

0% means that you have not driven over 83 km/h. 100% means that you have

driven over 83 km/h the whole time (which is practically impossible).

Eco-driving Idling

Idling is calculated when:

The vehicle is standing still more than 1 minute

The engine is running

To minimize idling:

Focus on turning off the engine when the vehicle is standing still. Good

performance: 5-8%.

An engine at idle has higher emissions than an engine that is working normally.

Eco-driving Coasting

Coasting is calculated when:

The vehicle is moving without fuel consumption

The brake pedal is not applied

The accelerator pedal is not applied (no fuel consumption)

Cruise control is not used

To maximize coasting:

Try to keep this value as high as possible. Focus on using the topography or

other possibilities that to bring the vehicle forward – without using the

accelerator pedal or cruise control.

When the vehicle is mowing forward without using accelerator pedal or cruise

control, the Right now bar is green and increases for each meter.

Eco-driving Harsh braking

Harsh braking is calculated when :

The speed is strongly reduced with a brake

The measurement show how many harsh brakes of the total number of brakes

that has been performed. Harsh braking is especially interesting for when

transporting people or sensitive goods in dense traffic situations.

To minimize harsh braking:

Focus on planning the driving and braking ahead and that braking is done in a

smooth way. Good performance: 10%

Eco-driving Wasted energy

Wasted energy is about to avoid that the fuel you have invested in speed

during acceleration is wasted as heat during braking.

The energy that is consumed during acceleration to a certain speed is

compared with the energy that is lost as heat in the brakes when the speed is

reduced.

To minimize wasted energy:

Focus on braking only when necessary – especially at high speeds.

If you have 50% wasted energy, it means that half of the invested energy is

wasted as heat through the brakes at slow-downs.
