More than Just GPS
TelePod was designed and developed to meet the needs of customers who demand more than just GPS and mapping features from their Telematics hardware. Often working with increased budgetary constraints, Fleet managers need greater vehicle visibility allowing them to take proactive action to help contain growing operational costs.
Web enabled onboard diagnostics is just one of the ways the TelePod is helping thousands of end users in North America.
Increased fuel prices, as well as a more conscientious approach to the environment, has made our idle time reports an understandably sought out feature. The TelePod dispatching capability has for its part played a key role in helping utility companies shorten time to customer while our Odometer reading feature tracks vehicle usage.
Installation
TelePod installation is quick and seamless. This self contained unit requires battery, ignition power and ground connections that are easily accessible in the fuse panel of most light duty vehicles.
Our connection to the vehicle bus (OBDII, J1708) is designed to ensure existing vehicle wiring harnesses are not disturbed.
