About the Idrive Control Center 3.0

(Rev 3.4.4 and up)

The Idrive Control Center 3.0 is the new generation of Professional Event Data Recorder management software which allows you to monitor and control all of the devices in your fleet. It has the capabilities to manage all of the data events, personnel, vehicle documents and scheduling. It performs downloads from the vehicles and can be used to review the events.

The types of data that are recorded or downloaded are controlled by the operator using the Idrive Control Center 3.0. This allows the company to manage the number of events that are downloaded or to remove elements from events (audio or inside video) to meet legal or privacy concerns.

The Idrive Control Center allows for the setting of event trigger thresholds and LED behavior for the Idrive devices in the fleet.

Starting the Idrive Control Center 3.0

The Idrive Control Center can be opened by double clicking the Idrive Control Center icon on the Base Station desktop or by selecting it from the Start> All Programs Menu> Idrive Tools> Idrive Control Center3.0

To log into the Idrive Control Center enter your user name (email address) and password. The system defaults are username:admin@admin.com and password: admin.

This user name and password can be managed along with all of the other users in the Fleet Manager section of the Control Center.

If you have forgotten or misplaced your log in information please contact the Idrive Support Team at support@idriveglobal.com

EVENTS and REVIEWS - Idrive Player

Selecting a dual image thumbnail of the event you wish to view will populate the main viewer and the map section below

The player buttons are similar to those you would find on many video players and are as follows

<br\><br\>

Go to beginning
Go to previous second
Go to previous frame
Play/Pause
Stop
Go to next frame
Go to next second
Go to end

Go to Event Trigger
Snapshot (captures both camera images, GPS Map and Speed Chart to export as jpg image to file location of your choice

<br\><br\>

<br\><br\>

Map - Speed Chart - G-Force Chart

The default viewer window displays an interactive Map; selectable Viewer windows are:

Speed Chart
G-Force Chart

Map Graphic panel displays the information about the location of the event.

• Pan the map by "click and drag".

• Zoom in / out using the mouse scroll wheel.

• You can also use the pan and zoom buttons in the left upper corner.

Speed Graphic -shows the speed of the vehicle over time during the event.

G-Force Graphic -shows the G-Forces levels for the vehicle over the time period for the event. Forward, Lateral and Vertical Axis may be selected for display.

Note: This graphic is only available with the Idrive X1P cameras with Firmware version 10.5 or higher.

By default, the vertical G-Force is not visible.

The horizontal red line represents the trigger G-Force (in many cases, the graphic shows 2 horizontal lines: one for positive trigger and another for negative trigger). In this example, the positive line is higher than the max positive value of the G-Forces, so it is not displayed on the graphic.

The vertical red line represents the trigger moment (not necessary the max value).

The vertical green line represents the current second of the event. When you play the event, the line is changing the value (similar with speed graphic / map). Also, you can drag the green line and the player will seek to the most appropriate second.

Note: Each second has around 300 values on each axis (you can see the values if you click on “More Info” link from the player). For a “single core” computer, the animation of the G-Force graphic produces a significant delay between sound and images! (Because of the number of values) For those computers, the green line is not displayed! So, in order to see the “animation”, you must have at least a dual core computer!

About file formats

Ucompressed AVI - An industry standard format however the file size is very large.

H.264 or MPEG-4 Part 10, Advanced Video Coding (MPEG-4 AVC) is a video compression format that is currently one of the most commonly used formats for the recording, compression, and distribution of video content. The final drafting work on the first version of the standard was completed in May 2003, and various extensions of its capabilities have been added in subsequent editions.

-A free “open-source” Media player can be downloaded from VideoLan at http://www.videolan.org/vlc

Original Format - Proprietary format that can only be viewed with Idrive Software (not recommended)

-Full feature event file as downloaded from the X1 device

-Viewable only on Idrive Control Center or Idrive Direct View software

Frame by Frame -Individual jpg pictures of each frame in the event

-8 Frames per second of video (4 from the inside camera & 4 from the outside camera)

-Files named by second, frame number, camera. Example: S_03_f_2_in.jpg (3rd second, 2nd frame, inside camera)

Comparison of Export File Sizes	for 30 Second Event
Export Type	Resolution	File Size	Note
H.264	400 x 300	0.9 MB
H.264	800 x 600	2.55 MB
Uncompressed AVI	400 x 300	83.3 MB	Too Large to email
Uncompressed AVI	800 x 600	330 MB	Too Large to email
Original Format	N/A	7.9 MB	Can only viewed with Idrive Software
Frame by Frame	N/A	N/A	Produces pictures rather than video

Select the appropriate file format and size for Email, DVD, Thumb drive ETC.

Lock / Unlock an Event

On occasion you may wish to secure an Event so it cannot be viewed. Once the event is locked a password is required to open it for viewing.

Locking an Event on the Control Center will also cause it to be locked on the Global Center as well

Only the User(s) (having privileges and knowing the Lock Code) will be permitted to View a Locked Event

Only the User that Locked the event can remove the lock.

Lock codes can be alpha numeric characters up to 10 digits in length

Once an event is locked the "Play" Icon showing the Event preview image is replaced with a Lock icon in both the regular Event screen list and the maximized Event screen list

To Unlock the Event click the UnLock button at the bottom and insert the password and click unlock

Deleting Event(s)

It is your data, once deleted there is no way to restore an event without a Backup!

More details on "Auto Delete" settings are available; see Admin Settings

Delete events from the Control Center “Events & Review” window containing the events lists. You can select single or multiple events to delete.

Single Event Delete

Select an event by left clicking the Status Icon or Event Type (clicking the thumb nail images causes the event to open on screen)

Left mouse click the “Delete selected event(s)” from the three Function buttons below

The Control Center identifies the backup location (if pre-selected) and presents 3 options:

- Perform Delete

- Perform Delete with backup (visible only if the backup location has been set)

- Close (closes window and no delete function was performed)''

Note: if the selected item to delete is marked as an Incident or Locked or Scored (1,2,3 or 4) then the appropriate options will populate in the Deleting Events Window allowing or blocking the delete operation

Multiple Events Delete (two ways to select multiple events)

Hold the “CTRL” key down on your keyboard, then

Simultaneously left mouse click each of the event icons you choose to delete (Windows multiple selection)

OR

Hold the “SHIFT” key down on your keyboard, then

Simultaneously left mouse click a start event and an end event

All the events including the start and end event will be selected (Windows consecutive selection)

THEN

Left mouse click the “Delete selected event(s)” from the three Function buttons below

Note: if the selected items to delete are marked as an Incident or Locked or Scored (1,2,3 or 4) then the appropriate check box options will populate in the Deleting Events Window (see above) allowing or blocking the delete operation on the selected items

The Control Center identifies the backup location (if selected) and presents 3 options:

- Perform Delete

- Perform Delete with backup (visible only if the backup location is pre-specified)

- Close (closes window and no delete function was performed)

Additional Notes:

• In order to have the option “Perform Delete with backup” you must have this preset in the Control Center Dashboard under:

- "Settings > Admin Settings > “Automatically delete events” tab > Backup"

• The Delete selected event(s) option is enabled only for Admin users or the users having full permissions on "Play Events" module

Important consideration for those users that operate their idrive Base Station in conjunction with mapped network drive(s) as the backup location:

• The “Delete feature with backup to a “network drive” will only be active when a user is logged in having credentials that map the network drive to the idrive Base Station

• For those Base Stations having an additional internal HDD or an external HDD (USB or eSata) that is physically connected to the idrive Base Station, then the Auto Delete with backup can perform because the drive is still connected even after logoff

It is your data, once deleted there is no way to restore an event without a Backup!

Attachments

Selecting the Attachments function button allows you to link into an Event a file of your choosing from most of the popular windows files extensions, such as:

Image (picture) files
Word, Text and PDF files etc.

You can upload a new file to the software at any time to attach it to an event (max 5MB size)

<br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\><br\>

EV - Extended Video

Events displaying the EV icon notify the user that Extended Video is captured and available for download from the Camera storage

<br\><br\>

With the Expanded view a user can select a function via the icons inline with the event or by the fixed function buttons at the bottom of the Event window

GPS Tracker (Vehicle or Driver Views)

GPS Tracker has two modules for viewing GPS data by Vehicle or by Driver

Both Vehicle View or Driver View modules look similar; the only difference is the vehicle name is populated rather than the persons name.

GPS Tracker displays information about a vehicle/driver location selectable into Vehicles or Drivers view .

GPS Data includes:

Ignition triggers both on and off
Location of events triggers (viewable in the GPS window)
Speeds and times recorded

The GPS Tracker module uses the GPS data file that is downloaded from the X-device along with the events. After each transfer, the GPS file is removed from the device and a new file is generated when the vehicle’s ignition is turned On. If no transfer occurs the current GPS file will continue to be appended with coordinates so that no data is lost.

Make a selection form the provided data and click the function button at the bottom for Map and more details for selected vehicle or View All GPS Events (more on GPS Events below...

Once selected, the the detailed data for the GPS file is revealed.

Each time and coordinate are converged into a green square on the map
When you click on a specific time coordinate from the left column coordinate list
- that location is shown on the map as a yellow square and centered in the map.

Each marker point shows the location in the selected intervals

The Detailed View shows vehicle/driver information in 30 second intervals

The Standard View shows the vehicle/driver information in 10 minute intervals

A vehicle MUST be assigned in advance of the data download to the device for the GPS tracking tool to function

A driver MUST be assigned in advance of the data download to the vehicle/device for the GPS tracking tool to function

The default player window shows the Time Report in the lower section of the window displaying:

Journey time in hours, minutes and seconds (percentage of over all time)
Idle time in hours, minutes and seconds (percentage of over all time)
Parking time in hours, minutes seconds (percentage of over all time)

GPS Mapping

A Selected GPS time is highlighted as a yellow block and centered on the map indication the vehicles / driver location at that moment

Location, Ignition records and Event Triggers are displayed in the map window

Map options

Show only Events - only event triggers will be shown on the map

Creating and reviewing a GPS Event

Multiple selection of GPS coordinates to “Show Only” those Events OR to Create a GPS Event

Select multiple GPS coordinates:
- Select a starting coordinate then Shift+ left click the desired ending coordinate (all coordinates in between will be selected)
- OR Hold Ctrl+ Left click each desired individual coordinate(s) (other coordinates will be omitted)
- Then select the 'Create GPS Event from the Function Buttons below

The multi-selected coordinates will highlight in light cream color showing the GPS Event that will be created from the those coordinates.

A GPS Event may or may not have video captured during the coordinates that were selected; rather, a GPS Events is a grouping of GPS coordinates that can be commented on and saved for future reference or driver coaching.

Reasons for GPS Events creation

Residential complaint about company vehicle driving fast through neighborhoods
Unexplained deviation from set route for a company vehicle
Sudden increase in fuel usage and GPS shows unplanned route paths

Once created, the GPS Event can now be saved in the system as that grouping so it can be searched by vehicle or driver, (if the driver had been selected during creation of the GPS Event).

The GPS Event can be reviewed and scored by the Safety Manager for the company by the scoring system and selected behaviors from the review screen of the GPS Event.

Admin Settings

Backup and Delete

It is your data, once deleted there is no way to restore an event without a Backup!

From the Control Center top menu bar click on Settings> Admin Settings> Backup and Delete

Set the number of days before events are automatically deleted from the Idrive Base Station for all X devices and D4 devices

There is also a disk space limitation feature where old events will be deleted when space is becoming limited. (recommended level for this setting is 25GB or more)

Options for Delete

Note: Square boxes are selectable or not

Keep Incidents
Keep Locked Events

Note: Round selectable buttons allow only one of three choices

Keep all scored events
Keep only high scores events (events scores of 3 or 4)
Delete scored events

Select “No Backup” or “Backup” (Backup is recommended) for deleted events

Choose a format for backups: “Keep original idrive format” (recommended - permits full restoration with high-res video) or select “Use video compression” (lower-res video) to save on space in archived location

Backup location selection

This can be a local drive connected directly to the base station or a resource available on your network. When using a network resource the location must be available to the system for backups to function. The backup location should be added in the UNC format (\\server\directory) and not as logical drive (z:\directory). If this resource requires authentication such as a domain account enter the user name and password in the fields provided. This will allow the system backup process to access the network resource even when no user is logged onto the base station.
D4 Videos (if used) can be large, a policy should be created for retention
GPS files are generally very small and should only be considered for deletion if old or out dated
Temporary Files represents Export folder located in C: Program Files\idrive\Export
- This folder contains saved PDF files exported from printable reports
- By default the pdf files older than 30 days will be removed.

NOTES:

The Backup and Delete mechanism looks at the DOWNLOAD date and the not the EVENT date to perform deletions. (as some vehicles do not download regularly, this way the operator of the software will have equal time in the system to view before auto deleted)

When choosing to backup before deleting you have two options "keeping original format" vs. "use video compression".

The Original format will allow you to "Import" all data back into the Control Center as it was originally before the delete; however, if you delete using video compression you can no longer import the video back into the system and the GPS data accompanied is lost.

The automatic delete process will run periodically even when no user logged onto the system

Events MUST be checked as an "Incident" to prevent automatic deletion!

It is your data, once deleted there is no way to restore an event without a Backup!

<br\><br\>

Player Settings

About Device WiFi transfer behavior

The Transfer mode is initiated when the ignition switch for the vehicle is shut off. The X series device will search for the Idrive wireless network. Once the idrive network is contacted the following actions take place:

Verify the Device belongs to the Company / Location by checking the serial number assignment

Only if the device belongs to the location begin download of events

-download the most recent event

-verify the event downloaded completely and is valid

-If the event correctly downloaded delete it from the device

-download the next event

Upon successful download of all events (all events are transferred successfully the first time via WiFi):

The connection will close

The camera will shut down (or enter sleep mode depending on your settings)

The number of tries will be shown as 1 in the Connection Column

If the download is interrupted - (either due to loss of connection or the vehicle ignition being turned on)

The device will retry the connection up to 15 times over the next 3 ½ minutes

Simultaneous downloads are limited to 3 devices at a time to improve overall download efficiency.If there are three devices connected the access point the camera will wait indefinitely for an open slot and begin downloading when a slot becomes available.

After successful download The connection will close

The camera will shut down (or enter sleep mode depending on your settings)

Access Point Settings

This section helps monitor and control the wireless access that make up your Idrive Wireless Network.

When a device connects to the Base Station via WiFi the access point that is used has its MAC Address is registered and displayed in the Router Settings list.

When a router connects the first time Status will show "IP not defined"

Enter a name for the router such as "Lot 1" to define the location.

Once a router has registered in the list it can be given a name as well as have the status tracked.

- The router name is replacing the mac address in all Transfer Activities lists.

- IP address: The status of each router (online/offline) is now verified by Sync Service every 6 hours.

- “Find IP by Mac” option trays to automatically get the IP address.

The status column will show the device as "online" or Offline"

Once a router has registered in the list it can be given a name as well as have the status tracked.

At the beginning, all clients will see the router’s list like first line from the image. They/We have to edit each line and add a proper value for each field.

For status checking to work the IP address of the router must be inserted because the service tries to ping the ip address and write the status in the database.

Import Detailed

Import Events

The Import View is used to manually transfer event from a device with a USB stick or to restore events to the system that have previously been backed up and deleted.

Select Import to open the Import View

Click on the Import tile to open the navigation pane

Navigate to the location on the system where the event(s)are located and select the desired events.

Select open and the events will load into the Control Center.

Note: To identify the event(s) you wish to import please see the event naming convention Here

<br\><br\><br\><br\>

Prepare the USB Thumb Drive'

Before Starting the process below, verify that you have a only one file on the USB memory stick having the file “idrive” as a “CERT file” type
if yes proceed to the step 4
If the file is missing or you believe it to be corrupt:

- Delete the file from the memory stick

- Save the file attached to this email and write it to the memory stick in its place

Download via USB from X Device Cameras

With the X1 Camera OFF (ignition OFF)
Place the USB thumb drive with the “gold fingers” toward the windshield into the left side of the camera (assuming the camera is still mounted to the windshield mount)
Turn the Ignition ON and wait for the LEDS to go Green - Green
Wait for 1 minute (this allows the X1 Camera time to “hand shake” with the thumb drive and verify the CERT file on the thumb drive is authentic
Turn the ignition off and the X1 Camera LEDs will change to solid Amber (Yellow) – Green (then the Amber will flicker very fast)
After the transfer is complete (fast flicker on left LED will go out – right LED may still be Green or out) remove the thumb drive and take back to the Base Station

- (this is a 8GB storage stick and can download from 2 full cameras having 4GB storage or many cameras having minimal events totaling under 8GB)

NOTES: If the Amber LED begins to flash slowly, the USB stick or the CERT file was not recognized and the Camera is now looking for the WiFi Access Point

If that happens, turn the ignition back ON and wait for the Green Green LEDs
Remove the thumb drive verify you had the contacts facing the windshield
Now start at step 1 (make sure the USB Thumb drive is inserted a full ½ inch)

Steps to IMPORT Events into the idrive Base Station

IMPORTANT: to IMPORT from a USB thumb drive, you must be physically at one of the idrive Base Stations (not remotely operated)

At the Base Station insert the USB into the drive computer
At the idrive Control Center select Import
Select X1 Events and Data
Next window select Import now
Using your mouse OPEN the drive location that the USB thumb drive appears as (e.g. Drive E. or F. etc)
Select all files (click one file to select it, then hold CTRL+A to select all)
Select OPEN; the software will upload all recognized events to the Base Station
Close import window and go to Play and Review and verify Imported files
After verifying Import, delete all files (except the idrive CERT file) from the USB Thumb Drive using Windows to navigate to the drive

Best Practices Managing the volume of event data

The Idrive system is not a crash recorder; it is a driver behavior modification system. To get the full benefit of your Idrive system events should be regularly reviewed so that the performance of your drivers can be monitored. This will allow for behavior modification measures to be taken to improve safety of your fleet. If there are too many false events this task can becomes much more difficult. Settings are available to help make sure that the cameras are only collecting events that you really want to review. There are several settings available to help control the number and size of events

Event Video Resolution – Use the lowest setting you require. This will make for faster downloads as well as few issues with system space

Download only desired event types – Do not download them if they are not being reviewed. If you need a specific event it will still be on the device up to 7 days base on your settings Here.

Event Lengths - excessive event length results in larger files which take longer to transfer and review

Recommended Event Lengths

Event Type	Suggested Length
Shock event length	14 Seconds
Door open event length	10 seconds
Alarm event length	20 seconds
Wired Panic event length	20 seconds
Periodic Event Length	8 seconds
Speed Event Length	8 seconds
Panic event length	20 seconds

G-Force settings - set the correct trigger level for each type of vehicle and driving condition to avoid generating excessive Shock Events. Start with the Vehicle Class as shown in table below and fine tune it from these values based on loading of the vehicles, road conditions etc.

It is recommended that the G-Force setting for all of the vehicles be set very high initially until the correct setting for each type of vehicle has been determined. Once this determination has been made the rest of the vehicles of similar type can then be set to the proper setting.

Select one vehicle of each type and lower the G-force for this vehicle only. Observe the number of events that are captured over the course of the vehicles operation interval and adjust the G-Force level accordingly. Once satisfied with the setting for the test vehicle apply the setting to all the vehicles of that type.

Typical G-Force settings based on vehicle Weight

Vehicle Type	Weight Range	G-Force
Very Light Vehicle	Under 2,000 pounds	0.4
Compact car	2,000 - 3,000 pounds	.5
Midsize car	3,000 – 3,500 pounds	.55
Large car	3,500 - 4,500 pounds	.6
Compact truck & SUV	4,500 - 5,500 pounds	.65
Midsize truck	5,500 – 7,000 pounds	.7
Large truck	7,000 – 8,500 pounds	.75
Very Heavy Vehicle	Over 8,500 pounds	.8

Delete and Auto Delete Events. Using the Control Center software, the best and most effective measure of protecting your data is maintaining a healthy data storage system. Routinely view and manually or automatically delete events from the Idrive Control Center with a recommended backup solution. This will prevent your Base Station from filling up and missing event downloads.

Files and Naming Conventions

Files downloaded from an Idrive device are one of two types:

GPS tracker files

These files contain the minute by minute GPS coordinates of the vehicle as well as ignition ON/Off actions - an example name is 00127B4B5F81.gps

Event Files

Each Event file contains the video, audio, GPS coordinates and G-Force information for one event. When searching for an event in a backup location you will need to understand the naming convention for the files.

Take for example a this file name 017040000025^180914^111213.2

Idrive Event File Naming Convention

Serial Number	Event Date	Event Time (GMT)	Event type
017040000025	18 Sept 2014	11:12:13 GMT	2
Serial Number	Day/Month/Year	Hour/Minute/Seconds	See below

Event Types

1= Door

2= Shock

4= Power Off (Obsolete)

8 =Panic

16 =Wired Panic

32= Alarm

130= Periodic

131= Speed

132= Super Speed

D4 DVR Event Naming Convention

In order to find a video file from a specific date and time you must understand the file naming convention. A video file name has the following format:

[X]_YYYYMMDD-hhmmss_[ZZZZZZ]_[serial_number].avi

[X] represents a digit used for an internal representation in the DVR firmware

YYYYMMDD represents the start date of the video (4 digits for the year, 2 digits for the month and 2 digits for the day)

hhmmss represents the start time of the video (2 digits for the hour, 2 digits for the minute and 2 digits for the second)

[ZZZZZZ] represents 6 digits used for an internal representation in the DVR firmware.

[serial_number] represents the serial number of the D4 device.

Example: 1_20120419-135053_f001p4_2222D3333V.avi

Global Center

The Idrive Global Center is a temporary copy of a clients most recent events, condensed and placed on the Idrive Cloud servers for 1 1/2 to 2 months depending on the quantity. The origianl files are on the clients Base Station and are owned by the client. These are simply a replica temporarily located here for remote Viewing and Reviewing of Events and GPS.

A User signs into the Global Center from any PC with an internet connection at;

Type into your Internet Browser address line - "globalcenter.idriveglobal.com"
Sign in using your email address and password that you use to sign into the Idrive Control Center Software
Each user will have the same privileges on the Global Center that they had on the Control Center Software
If a user signs into the Global Center and performs any views and reviews of events, then his/her Login History can be seen on the Control Center; Settings> Login History

Dashboard - Synced data from the Control Center shows recent data uploaded from the Control Center to the Global Center

If a client has more than one location, each location can be viewed under events and the location tab

Events - Clicking on Events will yield the last history of 3 days, 7 days or you can place an interval search

There is an advanced search tab on top that drops down to reveal search features such as:

Search by Vehicle Name
Search by Driver Name
Search by event type, etc...

Clicking on any dual camera image will open the video to play in the browser

Clicking on the Pyramid Icon with the tree bars will allow you to Place comments and Review then save the Event.

Every 12 minutes all data is synced back with the Base Station Control Center Software and vise versa

GPS - Click on the top tab for GPS and you can view a reduced coordinate version of the Control Center software (so it will load faster)

You must know the date and vehicle to search for as the browser cannot load all the data the Control Center maintains

+::*The horizontal red line represents the trigger G-Force (in many cases, the graphic shows 2 horizontal lines: one for positive trigger and another for negative trigger). In this example, the positive line is higher than the max positive value of the G-Forces, so it is not displayed on the graphic.
+::*The vertical red line represents the trigger moment (not necessary the max value).
-The default information for each event is displayed:
+::*The vertical green line represents the current second of the event. When you play the event, the line is changing the value (similar with speed graphic / map). Also, you can drag the green line and the player will seek to the most appropriate second.

+'''Note:''' Each second has around 300 values on each axis (you can see the values if you click on “More Info” link from the player). For a “single core” computer, the animation of the G-Force graphic produces a significant delay between sound and images! (Because of the number of values) For those computers, the green line is not displayed! So, in order to see the “animation”, you must have at least a dual core computer!

+GPS Tracker has two modules for viewing GPS data by Vehicle or by Driver
+[[File:38A.gps.jpg|thumb|750px]]
-The process for importing OVEDR events is similar to that of the '''[[Idrive_Control_Center_2.0_User’s_Guide#Importing_X1_Events|Importing Idrive X1 Events]]'''.
+<br/><br/>
+'''Both Vehicle View or Driver View modules look similar; the only difference is the vehicle name is populated rather than the persons name'''.
-* Select the OVEDR tab at the top to select the files you wish to import
+GPS Tracker displays information about a vehicle/driver location selectable into Vehicles or Drivers view .
-* Make a vehicle selection from the drop down list (previously assigned)
+GPS Data includes:
+* Ignition triggers both on and off
+* Location of events triggers (viewable in the GPS window)
+* Speeds and times recorded
-* A file path window opens to direct to the drive and folder of the OVEDR video
-* Once selected, the import immediately starts
+The GPS Tracker module uses the GPS data file that is downloaded from the X-device along with the events. After each transfer, the GPS file is removed from the device and a new file is generated when the vehicle’s ignition is turned On. If no transfer occurs the current GPS file will continue to be appended with coordinates so that no data is lost.
-* The progress bars will display the finished results
+Make a selection form the provided data and click the function button at the bottom for '''Map and more details for selected vehicle''' or '''View All GPS Events''' (more on GPS Events below...

-These files contain the minute by minute GPS coordinates of the vehicle as well as ignition ON/Off actions - an example name is 00127B4B5F81.gps
+[[File:38bb.gps.selected.jpg|right|750px]]
+'''Once selected, the the detailed data for the GPS file is revealed'''.
+* Each time and coordinate are converged into a green square on the map
+* When you click on a specific time coordinate from the left column coordinate list
+** that location is shown on the map as a yellow square and centered in the map.
+* Each marker point shows the location in the selected intervals
-'''Event Files'''
+* The Detailed View shows vehicle/driver information in 30 second intervals
-Each Event file contains the video, audio, GPS coordinates and G-Force information for one event. When searching for an event in a backup location you will need to understand the naming convention for the files.
+* The Standard View shows the vehicle/driver information in 10 minute intervals
-Take for example a this file name 017040000025^180913^111213.2
+* A vehicle MUST be assigned in advance of the data download to the device for the GPS tracking tool to function

+'''Backup location selection'''
-'''Resolution''' allows for the setting of X1 event video resolution. Event files can be very large and smaller resolution(s) can be very helpful without a significant reduction in video quality.
+* This can be a local drive connected directly to the base station or a resource available on your network. When using a network resource the location must be available to the system for backups to function. The backup location should be added in the UNC format (\\server\directory) and not as logical drive (z:\directory). If this resource requires authentication such as a domain account enter the user name and password in the fields provided. This will allow the system backup process to access the network resource even when no user is logged onto the base station.

+* Temporary Files represents Export folder located in C: Program Files\idrive\Export
+** This folder contains saved PDF files exported from printable reports
+** By default the pdf files older than 30 days will be removed.
-Some examples where lower resolution my be the right choice:
-::*More manageable file size when you need to email or transfer and event
+'''NOTES:'''
-::*Facilitates quicker downloads of Events from Idrive X1 devices
+* The Backup and Delete mechanism looks at the DOWNLOAD date and the not the EVENT date to perform deletions. (as some vehicles do not download regularly, this way the operator of the software will have equal time in the system to view before auto deleted)
+* When choosing to backup before deleting you have two options "keeping original format" vs. "use video compression".
-'''Sleep Mode*''' Sleep mode provides the X1 camera the ability to respond to events after the ignition for the vehicle has been turned off and the transfer mode has completed. You can set length of time for the sleep mode in minutes. A setting of 0 disables sleep mode. If you have made changes to the camera settings the camera will not enter sleep mode when the  ignition is shut off. The reason for this is that the camera needs to fully restart in order to use the modified settings. After the fully rebooted the camera will once again use the sleep mode setting the next time the ignition is turned off.
+* The Original format will allow you to "Import" all data back into the Control Center as it was originally before the delete; however, if you delete using video compression you can no longer import the video back into the system and the GPS data accompanied is lost.
-Benefits of Sleep mode include:
+* The automatic delete process will run periodically even when no user logged onto the system
-::*Capture of events while the vehicle is turned off or unattended
+* <span style="color:#ff0000">'''Events MUST be checked as an "Incident" to prevent automatic deletion!'''

-'''Use the Default G-force value related to vehicle (Recommended)''' Use the G-Force value for the Vehicle as set in Fleet Manager '''[[Idrive_Control_Center_2.0_User’s_Guide#Manage_Your_Vehicles|Edit Tab]]'''. Select the vehicle weight from the "Weight" pull down. This sets the suggested baseline G-force based on the weight of of vehicle. This is a good starting point while you find the optimal settings for each vehicle based on loading, suspension, road conditions etc.
+<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
-'''Force another G-Force value''' This setting overrides the Vehicle G-Force setting in the Fleet Manager. Ideally this should be set in Vehicle so that if the device is moved it will use the settings from the new vehicle.
+'''<span style="color:#ff0000">Note: Audio recording in some states may be prohibited. Please check the local and state regulations for your location.</span>'''
-'''G-Force value in sleep mode*''' This allows for a different G-force setting for when the device is in sleep mode. The default setting is 0.3g

+Idrive Control Center software Users should regularly sign out after their usage
-'''Yellow Wire''' Use the Pull down menu to select the type of event you wish the triggered event to appear as in the system.  For example if you select "Siren" the event will be call a "Siren Event" in the Control Center. The “Save settings” button will return an error if no event type is selected.
+Failure to do so could result in:
+* Other users with lessor permissions to have access to sensitive data
+* Accidental or purposeful permanent deletion of events and or data
+* Access to drivers and or company data stored in the system
-'''Allow Wi-Fi Transfer''' When checked this tells the system to download this type of event from the camera to the Base station. When this box is not checked the event(s) triggered from this source will be skipped when the camera downloads and remain on the camera for the specified number of days (up to 7 days) and then be deleted.
-'''Keep events on device''' This sets the number of days to keep files on the camera. The default setting is 3 days before the skipped downloads are deleted.

-==Best Practices Managing the volume of event data==
+::* Vehicle assignment '''<span style="color: red">(a Vehicle MUST be assigned to the Device for events to be reviewed)'''
-The Idrive system is not a crash recorder; it is a driver behavior modification system. To get the full benefit of your Idrive system events should be regularly reviewed so that the performance of your drivers can be monitored. This will allow for behavior modification measures to be taken to improve safety of your fleet. If there are too many false events this task can becomes much more difficult. Settings are available to help make sure that the cameras are only collecting events that you really want to review. There are several settings available to help control the number and size of events
+::* Device serial number
+::* Router (Access Point name or MAC ID the transfer come over)
-'''Event Video Resolution''' – Use the lowest setting you require. This will make for faster downloads as well as few issues with system space
+::* Start date (Beginning of transfer)
-'''Download only desired event types''' – Do not download them if they are not being reviewed. If you need a specific event it will still be on the device up to 7 days base on your settings '''[[Idrive_Control_Center_2.0_User’s_Guide#Yellow_Wire_Event|Here]]'''.
+::* End Date (End of transfer)
-'''Event Lengths''' - excessive event length results in larger files which take longer to transfer and review
+::* Time (Total Time of Transfer)
-'''Recommended Event Lengths'''
+::* Total Events

+::* Pending Events (Number of Events remaining on the device)
-'''G-Force settings''' - set the correct trigger level for each type of vehicle and driving condition to avoid generating excessive Shock Events. Start with the Vehicle Class as shown in table below and fine tune it from these values based on loading of the vehicles, road conditions etc.
+::* Total skipped wire events (download of wire events is optional)
-It is recommended that the G-Force setting for all of the vehicles be set very high initially until the correct setting for each type of vehicle has been determined. Once this determination has been made the rest of the vehicles of similar type can then be set to the proper setting.
+::* Max Rate – Highest wireless transfer rate
-Select one vehicle of each type and lower the G-force for this vehicle only. Observe the number of events that are captured over the course of the vehicles operation interval and adjust the G-Force level accordingly. Once satisfied with the setting for the test vehicle apply the setting to all the vehicles of that type.

-Delete and Auto Delete Events. Using the Control Center software, the best and most effective measure of protecting your data is maintaining a healthy data storage system. Routinely view and manually or automatically delete events from the Idrive Control Center with a recommended backup solution. This will prevent your Base Station from filling up and missing event downloads.

+::- Save the file attached to this email and write it to the memory stick in its place
+'''Download via USB from X Device Cameras'''
+# With the X1 Camera OFF (ignition OFF)
+# Place the USB thumb drive with the “gold fingers” toward the windshield into the left side of the camera (assuming the camera is still mounted to the windshield mount)
+# Turn the Ignition ON and wait for the LEDS to go Green - Green
+# Wait for 1 minute (this allows the X1 Camera time to “hand shake” with the thumb drive and verify the CERT file on the thumb drive is authentic
+# Turn the ignition off and the X1 Camera LEDs will change to solid Amber (Yellow) – Green (then the Amber will flicker very fast)
+# After the transfer is complete (fast flicker on left LED will go out – right LED may still be Green or out) remove the thumb drive and take back to the Base Station
+::- (this is a 8GB storage stick and can download from 2 full cameras having 4GB storage or many cameras having minimal events totaling under 8GB)
+'''NOTES:''' If the Amber LED begins to flash slowly, the USB stick or the CERT file was not recognized and the Camera is now looking for the WiFi Access Point
+* If that happens, turn the ignition back ON and wait for the Green Green LEDs
+* Remove the thumb drive verify you had the contacts facing the windshield
+* Now start at step 1 (make sure the USB Thumb drive is inserted a full ½ inch)
+'''Steps to IMPORT Events into the idrive Base Station'''
+'''IMPORTANT:''' to IMPORT from a USB thumb drive, you must be physically at one of the idrive Base Stations (not remotely operated)
+# At the Base Station insert the USB into the drive computer
+# At the idrive Control Center select Import
+# Select X1 Events and Data
+# Next window select Import now
+# Using your mouse OPEN the drive location that the USB thumb drive appears as (e.g. Drive E. or F. etc)
+# Select all files (click one file to select it, then hold CTRL+A to select all)
+# Select OPEN; the software will upload all recognized events to the Base Station
+# Close import window and go to Play and Review and verify Imported files
+# After verifying Import, delete all files (except the idrive CERT file) from the USB Thumb Drive using Windows to navigate to the drive

+=='''Best Practices Managing the volume of event data'''==
+The Idrive system is not a crash recorder; it is a driver behavior modification system. To get the full benefit of your Idrive system events should be regularly reviewed so that the performance of your drivers can be monitored. This will allow for behavior modification measures to be taken to improve safety of your fleet. If there are too many false events this task can becomes much more difficult. Settings are available to help make sure that the cameras are only collecting events that you really want to review. There are several settings available to help control the number and size of events
+'''Event Video Resolution''' – Use the lowest setting you require. This will make for faster downloads as well as few issues with system space
+'''Download only desired event types''' – Do not download them if they are not being reviewed. If you need a specific event it will still be on the device up to 7 days base on your settings '''[[Idrive_Control_Center_2.0_User’s_Guide#Yellow_Wire_Event|Here]]'''.
+'''Event Lengths''' - excessive event length results in larger files which take longer to transfer and review
+'''Recommended Event Lengths'''
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+!Event Type ||Suggested Length
+|-
+| Shock event length || 14 Seconds
+|-
+|Door open event length || 10 seconds
+|-
+|Alarm event length || 20 seconds
+|-
+|Wired Panic event length || 20 seconds
+|-
+|Periodic Event Length || 8 seconds
+|-
+|Speed Event Length || 8 seconds
+|-
+|Panic event length || 20 seconds
+|-
+|}
+'''G-Force settings''' - set the correct trigger level for each type of vehicle and driving condition to avoid generating excessive Shock Events. Start with the Vehicle Class as shown in table below and fine tune it from these values based on loading of the vehicles, road conditions etc.
+It is recommended that the G-Force setting for all of the vehicles be set very high initially until the correct setting for each type of vehicle has been determined. Once this determination has been made the rest of the vehicles of similar type can then be set to the proper setting.
+Select one vehicle of each type and lower the G-force for this vehicle only. Observe the number of events that are captured over the course of the vehicles operation interval and adjust the G-Force level accordingly. Once satisfied with the setting for the test vehicle apply the setting to all the vehicles of that type.
+'''Typical G-Force settings based on vehicle Weight'''
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+!Vehicle Type || Weight Range || G-Force
+|-
+| Very Light Vehicle ||	Under 2,000 pounds ||	0.4
+|-
+|Compact car ||	2,000 - 3,000 pounds||	.5
+|-
+|Midsize car ||	3,000 – 3,500 pounds||	.55
+|-
+|Large car ||	3,500 - 4,500 pounds ||	.6
+|-
+|Compact truck & SUV ||	4,500 - 5,500 pounds ||	.65
+|-
+|Midsize truck	|| 5,500 – 7,000 pounds || .7
+|-
+|Large truck ||	7,000 – 8,500 pounds ||	.75
+|-
+|Very Heavy Vehicle ||	Over 8,500 pounds ||	.8
+|-
+|}
+Delete and Auto Delete Events. Using the Control Center software, the best and most effective measure of protecting your data is maintaining a healthy data storage system. Routinely view and manually or automatically delete events from the Idrive Control Center with a recommended backup solution. This will prevent your Base Station from filling up and missing event downloads.
+See '''[[Idrive_Control_Center_2.0_User’s_Guide#Delete_Events_Settings|Deletion Settings]]'''

+===Files and Naming Conventions===
+Files downloaded from an Idrive device are one of two types:
+'''GPS tracker files'''
+These files contain the minute by minute GPS coordinates of the vehicle as well as ignition ON/Off actions - an example name is 00127B4B5F81.gps
+'''Event Files'''
+Each Event file contains the video, audio, GPS coordinates and G-Force information for one event. When searching for an event in a backup location you will need to understand the naming convention for the files.
+Take for example a this file name 017040000025^180914^111213.2
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+====Idrive Event File Naming Convention====
+{| class="wikitable"
+|-
+!Serial Number ||Event Date||Event Time (GMT)||Event type
+|-
+|017040000025 || 18 Sept 2014 || 11:12:13 GMT || 2
+|-
+| Serial Number || Day/Month/Year || Hour/Minute/Seconds || See below
+|-
+|}
+'''Event Types'''
+::* 1= Door
+::* 2= Shock
+::* 4= Power Off (Obsolete)
+::* 8 =Panic
+::* 16 =Wired Panic
+::* 32= Alarm
+::* 130= Periodic
+::* 131= Speed
+::* 132= Super Speed
+<br/><br/><br/><br/>
+====D4 DVR Event Naming Convention====
+In order to find a video file from a specific date and time you must understand the file naming convention. A video file name has the following format:
+[X]_YYYYMMDD-hhmmss_[ZZZZZZ]_[serial_number].avi
+[X] represents a digit used for an internal representation in the DVR firmware
+YYYYMMDD represents the start date of the video (4 digits for the year, 2 digits for the month and 2 digits for the day)
+hhmmss represents the start time of the video (2 digits for the hour, 2 digits for the minute and 2 digits for the second)
+[ZZZZZZ] represents 6 digits used for an internal representation in the DVR firmware.
+[serial_number] represents the serial number of the D4 device.
+Example: 1_20120419-135053_f001p4_2222D3333V.avi
