Flexibility

 

The TTU-2820™ features CalAmp's industry leading advanced on-board alert engine that 
monitors vehicle conditions giving you the most flexible tracking device in its class. The 

PEG™

 (Programmable Event Generator) application supports hundreds of customized 

exception-based rules to help meet customers' dynamic requirements. Customers can 
modify the behavior of the device to meet with a range of applications preprogrammed 
before shipment or in the field. Combining affordability and device intelligence with your 
unique application can give you distinct advantages over your competition. 

 

Over-the-Air Serviceability

 

The TTU-2820™ also incorporates CalAmp's industry leading over-the-air device 
management and maintenance system software

PULS™

 (Programming, Updates, and 

Logistics System). Configuration parameters, PEG rules, and firmware can all be updated 
over the air. Our web-based maintenance server, PULS™ scripts, and firmware, can all 
be updated over-the-air. PULS™ offers out-of-the-box hands free configuration and 
automatic post-installation upgrades. You can also monitor unit health status across your 
customers' fleets to quickly identify issues before they become expensive problems.

] 2.1 Overview 

The entire purpose behind a fleet management system is to be able to remotely contact a 
vehicle, determine its location or status, and do something meaningful with that 
information. This could include displaying the vehicle location on a map, performing an 
address look-up, providing real-time driving directions, updating the vehicles ETA, 
monitoring vehicle and driver status or dispatching the vehicle to its next pick up. 
These functions, of course, are completely dependent on the capabilities of the vehicle 
management application. The role of the CalAmp TTU-2820™ is to deliver the location 
information when and where it is needed. 
A typical fleet management system based on a CalAmp device includes the following 
components: 

 

A wireless data network 

 

An TTU-2820™ 

 

Host Device (GPS NMEA only) 

 

An LM Direct™ communications server 

 

Backend mapping and reporting software which typically includes mapping and 
fleet reporting functions 

 

PULS™ 

 

LMU Manager™
