    * We are continuously adding support for more features and data to Navistar Premium. This document will always reflect the latest features and data set available.

    If you are interested in a specific feature which is currently unavailable, please contact your Geotab partner.

    + Please refer to frequently asked questions below to get more details on how the MyGeotab reports will work with this Plan.


    Frequently Asked Questions


    What is the data reporting frequency for this plan? Does that affect reports on MyGeotab?

    GPS Data is reported every 5 seconds for the devices under Navistar Premium plan. Most engine measurements are reported every 5 minutes.

    Is the watchdog report expected to work for devices under this plan?

    Yes, the watchdog report is supported for devices under this plan. A heartbeat signal is sent by the device every 24 hours, after a vehicle stops moving.

    How are Hard Acceleration and Harsh Braking events detected for devices under this plan?

    Acceleration data is reported only when data thresholds are breached:

    1. Forward acceleration (Harsh Acceleration): Greater than 0.2G
    2. Backward acceleration (Harsh Braking): Greater than 0.4G (-ve direction)
    3. Side to side acceleration (Harsh Cornering): Greater than 0.35G

    Users can set thresholds beyond these values on MyGeotab so that an exception is generated every time the acceleration value crosses the desired threshold. Please note that exceptions will only be generated if the rule is enabled as well as depending on the threshold set in that rule.
