allow you to define things such as speeding and idling
downs (e.g. 1, 5, 10 minute intervals)
thresholds, and stop time intervals for vehicle status.

3. Product Updates and New Features
New Fuel Card/Fuel Capacity Reporting Capability
Now you can specify how big your fuel tanks are for
each vehicle, and be alerted whenever more than that
amount of fuel is pumped using that vehicle’s Wright
Express Fuel Card.
You can also check to see when a vehicle’s card is used
for non-fuel purchases, or when it’s used and the
vehicle isn’t actually present.
This is a great report for validating your drivers’ use of
your fuel cards, and to make sure they aren’t taking
advantage of them. Additionally, it is a useful report to
summarize your fuel purchases across your fleet. Fuel Capacity configuration

EOBR / Hours of Service Solution (coming soon)
In Q2 of 2012, we will launch the GPS Insight EOBR solution, which has a touchscreen GPS tracking device and provides
completely DOT compliant Hours of Service / EOBR (Electronic On Board Recorder). While there are several large fleets
using the EOBR solution with full compliance, we are integrating the product into our overall GPS Insight fleet tracking
application, and will be looking for beta customers in the upcoming months. Please let us know if you are interested in
participating in this beta program or full production once we are ready to release it to the public in late Q2 2012.
