Base Station for Wireless Download
System Installation
The Base Station for Wireless Download System is one of three products that
work together to give your DriveRight fleet the ability to download data
directly from the DriveRight devices to the FMS database in the fleet office,
without any actions by your fleet drivers. With this system, there is no need
for the drivers to carry the DriveRight device or SmartCard into the fleet
office. The data moves wirelessly from the vehicle to the FMS database.
This manual provides the instructions necessary to install the wireless Base
Station (#8130) to a computer. Refer to the DriveRight Fleet Management
Software Online Help for instructions on how to configure the Base Station
and Wireless On-Board Modules for use with your fleet.
Wireless System Overview
The Wireless System consists of three products:
• The Wireless On-Board Module (#8129) (requires #8127 GPS/Wireless
Interface Module)
• The Base Station for Wireless Download System (#8130)
• The Configuration Cable for Wireless On-Board Module (#8131)
Wireless On-Board Module (#8129)
This module installs in the vehicle and connects to
the DriveRight device through the GPS\Wireless
Interface Module (#8127). Once the vehicle is parked
in the fleet parking lot, this module communicates
with a Base Station (#8130) and moves the
DriveRight data to the FMS database.
Base Station for Wireless On-Board Module
(#8130)
The Base Station connects to a
computer running FMS via a USB
connection. It communicates with all
the Wireless On-Board Modules
(#8129) installed in your fleet and
moves the data from the DriveRight
devices to the FMS database. Using
FMS, this operation can be
performed daily for all the vehicles
in your fleet, or only for selected vehicles. You can also initiate a manual
download from selected vehicles or from your whole fleet.
