    Br ief overview

    The SkyTrack is a sophisticated system consisting of multiple hardware

    and software products, implemented in vehicles, on central location and on client

    computers.

    All the collected data in vehicles (location, speed, sensors data, wholesale

    and retail data, delivery data, etc.) are safely transferred (CSD, GPRS, Wireless,

    etc.) to central location where they are stored and processed in SkyTrack central

    server and, if needed, forwarded to other IT systems.

    Acquired data are accessible by client computers via SkyTrack set of

    applications which enable visual, synthetic and analytic overview.

    Remote access is available via Pocket PC or PDA computer, which enables

    user to directly connect either to the vehicle or to the central site and

    immediately receive full fleet status.

    SkyTrack system gas distribution implementation example

    Vehicle imp lementat ion

    The SkyTrack Mobile (STM) device is installed in the vehicle as the basiccomponent of the system. The installation is fixed and usually out of reach for

    the driver. The SkyTrack Mobile device has several input/output ports, an

    expansion bus and RS232 ports used for connecting terminals and equipment.

    Apart from the standard set of GPS data, which includes location, speed

    and direction, acceleration is another piece of information being measured.

    Moreover, signals from the vehicle which can be related to starting and shutting

    off the engine, opening and closing the valves and/or doors, are connected to the

    digital input ports. Sensors are connected to the analog inputs, and the Microbox

    device used for the supervision of fluid dispensing via Micromotion device is

    connected to the expansion bus. The message exchange and/or managing of the

    retail or wholesale business from the vehicle are conducted via Hand Held

    Terminal which is connected to the serial port.

    All the acquired data are stored in the internal memory of the SkyTrack

    Mobile device where they remain protected in case of sudden power failure. The

    data are kept safe and protected until they are transferred to the SkyTrack

    central server. A specially designed algorithm for optimizing data and the size of

    internal memory are powerful enough to provide several months of collecting

    data without need for transfer.

    Due to this unique way of functioning, the system is completely

    independent of the GSM network and SkyTrack central server availability,

    ensuring undisturbed and fully functionality of both driver and vehicle.Hand-held terminal, which is used for conducting retail and wholesale

    business, as well as receiving and exchanging messages with the SkyTrack

    central server, is connected to the SkyTrack Mobile (STM) device using RS232

    cable (optional Wireless). All the sales data are stored in the SkyTrack Mobile

    device and are automatically transferred as soon as the connection with the

    SkyTrack central server is established. At the same time, data from the server

    (price-list, addresses) are stored in the STM device and, once it is available,

    forwardedto the Hand Held Terminal.

    The SkyTrack Mobile device is very robust in design and contains high

    voltage, overheat and short circuit protections. STM device can also be used as,

    so-called, black box. The STM device can be remotely controlled, configured and

    upgraded.

    Data transfer

    For the SkyTrack system Artronic developed own 3A protocol (Artronic

    Advanced Air) to ensure safe and protected data transfer with minimal overhead.

    The data is transferred via GPRS and/or CSD, and system can be

    configured according to the providers fee and calculation unit.

    Data collection and transfer mode are configured centrally according to the

    requirements for each individual vehicle. This enables user to have a complete

    control over the communication expenses.

    SkyTrack central server at the users central site as well as the SkyTrack

    mobile device in the vehicle acts as interstorage devices and routers whichensure fast and safe transfer for every piece of information, as well as

    independent functioning of each part of the system, regardless of the links

    existence and quality at any given point of time.

    In order to enable GPRS acquiring and exchanging data, SkyTrack central

    server needs to have access to the Internet, either via cable or ADSL.

    SkyTrack cen tral server

    On the users central site location, the receiving, processing and storing of

    the data is performed by the SkyTrack central server. All received data are

    stored in the SQL database where they are being processed in order to produce

    complete statistics, synthetics and analytics of the fleets activities.

    SkyTrack central server

    SkyTrack central server contains all the necessary services needed for

    successful and uninterrupted functionality of the SkyTrack system.

    SkyTrack CSD server and SkyTrack GPRS server collect GPS and other

    data from the SkyTrack Mobile devices, exchange messages and files, and finally

    upload the settings and the newest firmware to the devices. The system

    functions automatically, and its performance is controlled by the SkyTrack

    Administrator application. If the SkyTrack Xchange server is installed on the

    SkyTrack central server, the service is automatically activated when processing

    and storing files.

    The SkyTrack SMS server forwards given messages (as SMS messages) to

    predefined telephone numbers.The SkyTrack Xchange server is responsible for automatic and/or

    semiautomatic exchange of data with other IT solutions. The server can obtain

    data either from the files or directly from the database.

    The SkyTrack Xchange server functions via SkyTrack connectors which are

    programmed and configured according to the user requirements.

    The SkyTrack AVL gateway is used for distribution of GPS and other data

    collected from SkyTrack Mobile devices to another AVL (Automatic Vehicle

    Location) or GIS system. The SkyTrack AVL server can receive GPS and other

    data from other AVL systems.

    The SkyTrack Remote server enables remote access for PDA devices with

    SkyTrack PDA position manager application installed, while the SkyTrack

    Replication server ensures automatic asynchronous data replication among

    several hierarchically positioned SkyTrack central servers.

    Hierarchically connected SkyTrack central servers

    If SkyTrack central servers are hierarchically organized, the vehicle data is

    acquired centrally and all required data is distributed through complete

    hierarchy.

    The size and configuration of the SkyTrack central server depends of thenumber of the vehicles and the client computers. The SkyTrack central server is

    always configured in the way to ensure safety and availability of the stored data

    and required services. The SkyTrack central server is delivered with all the

    necessary services already installed, and is always adjusted to user and

    application requirements.

    One or more SkyTrack Data/SMS communicators (or other GSM modems)can be connected to the SkyTrack central server in order to enable direct access

    to the SkyTrack Mobile devices in vehicles, enable sending SMS messages and

    other necessary services.

    Advantages

    The greatest advantage of the SkyTrack system is the fact that the system

    entirely belongs to the user, and therefore the lease, connection and data access

    will not be charged by the Artronic Corporation. All the data are stored on the

    SkyTrack central server kept at a user location which ensures additional safety

    for the system.

    In case of acquiring and exchanging data with the SkyTrack Mobile devices

    in vehicles via GPRS connection, at the central location neither leased line nor

    GPRS gateway are necessary the system functions even via Dynamic DNS and

    therefore cheap standard ADSL access will be sufficient.

    A specially developed protocol for data exchange via wireless connection

    ensures a safe reception of each piece of data, and by adjusting parameters it is

    possible to maximally adjust data transfer to the providers calculation unit and

    tariff in order to minimize expenses.

    Since the SkyTrack central server is located at user place, the connection

    with already existing IT solutions is made much easier and it is possible to

    entirely automatize data exchange. It also enables much faster data access and

    producing extensive and highly complex reports.

    Due to ultrafast map engine, it is possible to view dynamic activities inreal-time.

    The SkyTrack system is scalable and flexible, and can be easily adjusted to

    user size and needs.

    The whole system, including all the applications and hardware, is

    developed in the Artronic Corporation, which enables quick and simple

    development and design of additional hardware and software modules for system

    expansion upon request.

    With individual approach, each and every user is guaranteed maximal

    exploitability and automatization of the system with minimal maintenance

    expenses.

    for distribution of liquefied gas. The system is primary used for monitoring the

    movement of the vehicles, fuel consumption and dispensing (communication with

    the Micromotion device for dispensing). Retail and wholesale of liquefied gas are

    also implemented, and the data are automatically transferred and acquired from

    the business system of the company. The fuel dispensing from the fuel tank isbeing monitored and the amount of fuel sold is then being compared to the

    already existing data.

    AWT International Croatia wholesale distributor

    The company implemented the devices in the vehicles used by the

    salesmen to visit stores and take orders. The system is used for monitoring

    salesman movement with the vehicle and for transferring customer orders. The

    SkyTrack system is connected to the already existing business system in the

    company via automatic data exchange.
