Alerts

Define and set up alerts for different types of vehicles. For example, create a Speed Over alert and apply this to all of your vehicles. You can also set up multiple Speed Over alerts that can be applied to specific types of vehicles. For example, set up different Speed Over alerts for cars, trucks, and for snow plows.

When a vehicle alert is triggered, notifications will be sent out. If set up, the alert will be sent via email or SMS message. The alert window on the map page will also show the vehicle safety alerts that have been triggered.

To set up and manage vehicle alerts, go to Settings > Vehicle Tracking > Alerts.
