The Garmin Portable Navigation Device connects directly to the FM on-board-computer, providing a fleet management, navigation and messaging solution, all in one. A secure website allows dispatch to monitor vehicles on the Internet from any PC without any special software!
Our navigation solution connects the driver with the office via the mobile communications network (GSM/GPRS). Similar to text-messaging, drivers may use their Garmin's touch screen keyboard to send a message or record notes about their location. Similarly, dispatch can communicate with the drivers by sending a message that will appear on the screen. Even a new location can be sent and the driver will receive turn-by-turn, voice-prompted directions to the new destination.
The driver can view a display of ordered job locations and easily “route to” with the touch of the screen.
