RTCU SX1 series

The RTCU SX1 is a stand-alone tracking, monitoring and data collection device designed for applications, which require extremely long operating time without access to external power. Based on the X32 generation of RTCU products the SX1 series introduces zero-power saving mode reducing the power consumption in the deepest hibernation mode to virtually nothing. This state-of-the-art technology allows the unit to operate as long as 10 years with no external power!

The RTCU SX1 is a compact tracking, monitoring and data collection device especially designed for stand-alone as well as extremely long operating time in harsh environments. The product is fully integrated in an IP66 ingress-protected ruggedized plastic box, that can withstand years of operation. The zero-power saving mode allows the unit to enter power saving mode - waking up on the on-board 3D accelerometer, digital input change or after a certain time period – and to stay in this mode virtually forever only limited by the battery technology in use!

The RTCU SX1 series is available in versions for standard GSM (RTCU SX1 pro) and railroad based GSM-R (RTCU SX1 pro-r) for advanced and reliable asset tracking in a wide range of application segments. The RTCU SX1 series has support for medium range wireless communication using the ISM 868 MHz frequency band. This feature allows implementation of wireless sensors, RF-tracking and simple remote key fob applications.

For usage in various application scenarios there is no less than four on-board battery configurations available ranging up to a massive 58 Ah non-rechargeable pack.
The RTCU SX1 series has on-board antennas for GSM, GPS and ISM RF with an optional feature to use external antennas for longer range or for specialized applications, where the unit is installed in metal enclosures etc. Switching back and forth from internal to external GSM/ISM antennas can even be controlled programmatically by the application.

In addition to the powerful features allowing long-term autonomous operation the RTCU SX1 series also offers the possibility to operate from external power and has digital and analog I/O aswell as 1-wire and an RS232 port available for the most demanding applications. For flexible external interfacing the three PG7 blinds can be substituted with PG7 glands for IP66 protected cable entry.

Garmin Fleet Management / Navigation Interface




The Garmin Fleet Management / Navigation API supports implementation of advanced fleet management applications integrating Navigation, Two-way messaging, Driver identification and Job dispatch capabilities. The Job dispatch functionality includes advanced features such as support for routes with multiple stops, route optimization and periodic Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) notifications.

The CX1i flex/pro and MX2i series can be connected to certain navigation devices from Garmin allowing the development of highly advanced Fleet Management, Messaging and Navigation applications.
The Garmin Navigation devices currently supported includes:

  •  Garmin Dezl series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 24xx series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 22xx series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 23xx series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 12xx Series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 13xx Series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 14xx Series
  •  Garmin Nüvi 465T (*)
  •  Garmin Nüvi 7xx Series (*)
  •  Garmin Nüvi 5000 Series (*)

  •  User authentication.
  •  Up to three simultaneous users.
  •  Waypoint support.
  •  Message threading.
  •  Delete message support.
  •  Message formatting using HTML tags.

To connect the RTCU CX1i/MX2i series device to the Garmin Navigation device a special interface cable is required. It is also possible to connect the Garmin device to the RTCU IDE Simulator allowing development of complete Fleet Management applications within the RTCU IDE environment.

The MX2i pro/pro+ and CX1i pro natively supports the Garmin Fleet Management interface, whether the CX1i flex and MX2i basic/eco+ does not. The MX2i basic/eco+ and CX1i flex can be upgraded to full Garmin Fleet Management functionality. For special applications the RTCU AX9 pro can also work with the Garmin Fleet Management interface.

Logic IO is offering interface cables as well as Garmin Navigation devices constituting a complete solution. Currently we are offering the Garmin Dezl 560 and Garmin Nüvi 1390.
Also available is a complete MX2i FMI Starter kit with everything to get started on the development of applications

Garmin Dezl 560L (Europe)
 

Hit the open road with dezl 560L – the new Garmin navigator designed exclusively for the trucking industry. With large 5-inch display, rugged design, extra loud speaker and external video input for optional backup camera, dezl is ideally suited to the in-cab environment. Delivering advanced navigation, multi-route planning and calculation with nüRoute technology, dezl customises routes to your vehicle’s specific attributes, complete with trucking points of interest, truck speed limits, hazards and exits.

With its 5-inch (12.7 cm) high-resolution touchscreen display, dezl 560L provides a wealth of information in great detail. PhotoReal Junction View delivers a realistic reproduction of road signs and junctions along your route, with stunning landscape detail for exceptional clarity right down to the exact trees and pylons! With Lane Assist, there’s no more guessing which lane you need to be in, dezl uses arrows to indicate the right lane for navigation at the right time – especially helpful when navigating complex motorway exits and junctions. So there’s no need for panic, hesitation or last-minute lane changes, even on unfamiliar routes.

Preloaded with detailed full Europe maps (44 countries, truck coverage may vary), for turn-by-turn directions and spoken street names, dezl’s specialised routing supports truck-related restrictions customisable by your vehicle height, weight, length and hazardous materials. Simply enter your truck’s profile and dezl guides you onto suitable truck-verified roads, avoiding towns, cities and routes where relevant restrictions apply. You can even set up custom avoidances for specific roads and areas. Advanced multi-point truck routing finds the most efficient route between multiple stops and users can maintain various truck and driver profiles across a fleet, changing the active profile at any point.

dezl makes finding an appropriate place to park much simpler with its “exit services” feature, which enables drivers to quickly search upcoming motorway exits for food, fuel, lodging, rest areas, truck stops and weigh stations. Once refuelled, the quick-release powered mount with Park Position Recall helps you navigate back to your parked vehicle to get quickly back on the road

Whether your business acts globally or locally, the dezl 560L can be integrated into your existing or planned fleet management system. Garmin GPS solutions are a key part of today's most useful, versatile, and cost-efficient fleet monitoring solutions.

    Modular 1-Wire

    Modular 1-Wire concept

    The modular 1-Wire concept is offering high flexibility and customization for a wide range of applications utilizing multiple 1-Wire devices. The 1-Wire concept is based on building blocks such as combiners, splitters and unit interface cables connected together with standard and widely available RJ45 UTP cable technology.

    Unit interface cables are available which connect the RTCU unit to a splitter or combiner, that again connects to branches with more splitters and combiners and at the end-points of this arbitrary topology various lengths of 1-Wire devices such temperature sensors or ID-button readers can be connected. As the backbone is based on standard RJ45 UTP cable technology expanding a network can easily be achieved.

    Modular 1-Wire unit interface cable

    The modular 1-Wire interface cable makes the physical bridge to the modular 1-Wire network. The modular network can easily be customized with the use of standard RJ-45 splitters and combiners to achieve the needed 1-Wire network. Multiple 1-Wire devices such as temperature sensors and ID-Button readers can be connected to one RTCU unit.

    The modular 1-Wire interface cables are available for the MX2i series, the DX4/AX9 series and the CX1i flex/pro. The modular 1-Wire interface are delivered with a RJ-45 connector for easy connection to a combiner if only a single 1-Wire device is connected. For multiple 1-Wire devices a splitter can be used. No external power supply is required as the 1-Wire devices derives power directly from the 1-Wire bus simplifying installation.

    Please refer to the Modular 1-Wire Technical manual for installation and use.

    Modular 1-Wire splitter, combiner and RJ45 UTP cables

    The modular 1-Wire concept is build on standard RJ45 cable technology and by using splitters, combiners and RJ45 UTP cables any network topology required by the application can be designed and implemented.
    The following parts are offered:

    •  RJ45 combiner. Combines two RJ45 cables

    •  RJ45 splitter. Splits one RJ45 cable into two cables.

    •  RJ45 UTP cables. HQ cables in various lengths.

    Modular 1-Wire temperature sensor

    The modular 1-Wire temperature sensor are delivered with a RJ-45 connector for easy connection to the modular 1-Wire network via a combiner or splitter allowing easy installation in any application. The temperature sensor offers an accuracy of typical +/- 0.5ºC and ranges from –55ºC to +125ºC.

    The communication between the RTCU unit and the temperature sensor is done through the 1-Wire interface, requiring only a single wire and a ground to establish the data connection. No external power supply is needed as the temperature sensor derives power directly from the 1-wire bus simplifying application set-up. From the RTCU application temperatures are measured with a simple function similar to the known board temperature function. The temperature sensor has a unique factory-lasered 64-bit serial number allowing connection of multiple temperature sensors on the same 1-Wire bus.

    Please consult the RTCU IDE on-line help for more information about the supported 1-Wire Temperature Sensor functions.

    The Modular 1-Wire temperature sensor can be delivered in two length; 3 or 10 meters of cable with a RJ-45 for easy installation into the modular 1-Wire network. If another length is required the modular 1-Wire network is easy expandable with a combiner or splitter and standard UTP network cable.
