Engine Management System

Navman Wireless Engine Management System (EMS) is a telematics monitoring system providing truck fleet operators with a complete picture of truck and driver performance.

Functioning as a monitoring and reporting tool, EMS captures live feeds of individual truck data – such as speed, braking patterns, oil pressure and fuel consumption – and combines it with Navman Wireless' industry-leading GPS tracking system to pinpoint patchy driving behaviour, vehicle performance and top-line indicators of possible maintenance issues.

EMS benefits

EMS is an investment in your businesses bottom-line, paving the way for vehicle operating and maintenance cost savings, and extending the life of your trucks. Truck fleet operators have said EMS reduces maintenance costs by as much as 25-to-30 percent.

Gain real-time insights into individual truck and driver performance:

• • Establish and monitor acceptable driver behaviour for speed, revs, braking, idle time and fuel consumption
• • Compare individual drivers and promote driver performance targets, including trip times, average speed, braking applications and distances, fuel economy, optimum speed and revs
• • Proactively address engine indicators, such as abnormal oil pressure and engine temperatures, before they become problematic
• • Close the debate on an individual driver's 'track record' and benchmark driver performance with irrefutable fact-based engine telemetry data

How EMS works

The engine management unit (EMU), fitted in the truck captures and collates second-by-second vehicle data from a standard heavy vehicle CANbus2. The EMU sends the relevant information to the Navman Wireless Qube, which synchronises vehicle information with GPS tracking data and wirelessly transmits it to Navman Wireless's central servers. Navman Wireless's OnlineAVL desktop application and web-based management reporting suite provides fleet managers with instant access to individual vehicle trip analysis.

Features of EMS monitoring

Second-by-second engine monitoring captures and reports vital trip information:

• • Braking – harsh braking, number of brake applications, braking distance
• • Speed – average trip speed, maximum speed, speeding, time spent in speed bands
• • RPM – excessive RPM, max RPM, time in RPM bands
• • Fuel consumption – per trip and average fuel economy
• • PTO use
• • Engine hours
• • Distance – odometer
• • Oil pressure
• • Water temperature
• • Idle time, warm-up idle time and excessive idle
