Command panel

The commands panel have been designed to give you a better overview of the commands you send to your devices. The Commands panel is not dependent on the selected vehicle, instead it shows all the commands being sent in the application.

Setup

  1. Log in to SiteAdmin.
  2. Go to the Applications tab and click on your application.
  3. Expand the Privileges and Roles section and set the privileges in the Commands folder.
  4. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save.
  5. Log in to your VehicleTracker application.

How to use

Send command

To send a command to a device

  1. Right click a user in the vehicles panel.
  2. Hover the execute command option and click on the command you want to send.
  3. Confirm that you want to send the command.

Note: you can create template commands in SiteAdmin in the Devices tab by clicking on Commands in the left menu.

After your confirmation the command’s status is shown in the Commands panel. Pending commands are always displayed on top and ended commands are displayed underneath. Commands are sorted to show the latest sent first and the ones that fails are highlighted in red and delivered commands are highlighted in green.

You can abort a pending command by clicking the cross button in the commands panel. A confirmation window will appear so you don’t accidentally abort your commands.

In the upper right corner of the commands panel you can make additional settings. These settings are saved when you save your workspace You can set a time filter to only show commands that ended within that time, show or hide the search bar and set a maximum number of ended commands to show.

Commands time filter

Search and Filters

You can use the search field in the commands panel to search for a vehicle name, command name, status etc. If you only want to show commands for one vehicle, right click the vehicle and click on “Show only this”. Commands in the command panel are shown based on the visible vehicles in the vehicles tab. This means that if you filter your vehicles on a tag or a bucket color, you will only see commands for those vehicles.
