​
Available Sensor Types

Available types include Battery Voltage, Digital Input, Digital Output, Engine Hours, Fuel Level, Fuel Consumption, GSM Signal, GPS Signal, Ignition, Odometer, Temperature, Humidity, Door Status, and Custom values.

​
Editing or Deleting a Sensor

Use Edit Sensor to change a configured mapping. Use Delete Sensor only after confirming that the Sensor is no longer required by Object information, Events, Reports, or counter sources.

​
Exporting and Importing Configuration

Export Config saves the Sensor configuration for reuse or backup. Import Config is available on the Objects page. Review imported mappings because source parameters can differ between GPS Device models.

​
When a Sensor Has No Value

Confirm that the selected Source Parameter is present in messages from the GPS Device. A configured Sensor cannot display a current value when the device does not send that parameter.
