Section 2 Getting Started

2.1. General

The following provides a summary of the steps needed to quickly deploy and begin using DPL:

1. Perform the following preliminary steps:

DPL5 GSM / DPL4:

Verify that the SIM card is inserted

Verify that the SIM card is open for data

Please see 3.2

DPL5 WiFi:

Configure DPL WiFi SSID and password. See Configuring the WiFi Network2.3

Configure permanent access points and mobile hotspots with the same SSID and network key set in DPL units

Verify that permanent access points are located within a 100 meter (~330 feet) radius

Please see 2.2

2. Install the DPL units:

Plug & play installation

Basic installation

3.

Set up the DPL units using the Wizard

4.

Track your vehicles in the ForeFleet User Portal

2.2. Configuring the WiFi Network

Note: the following section describes preliminary steps required for DPL5 WiFi units only. For all other configurations continue to the next chapter.

DPL5 WiFi in an offline / passive vehicle device. Unlike the cellular versions of the DPL, which upload data in real time over the cellular network, the DPL5 WiFi continuously collects data offline in its internal storage and automatically uploads it to Orpak’s ForeFleet server when in a coverage area of a WiFi network.

The DPL keeps a list of WiFi networks through which it can connect for uploading data. These networks are defined by their SSID (Service Set Identifier, the network name) and Security Key (password) and can be implemented at the fleet premises, parking or fuel station by a fixed WiFi hotspot / router / access point with Internet connectivity, or anywhere using a mobile phone with cellular internet connectivity and an activated WiFi Tethering / Personal Hotspot on the device.

2.3. DPL SSID Configuration Options

In order for the DPL5-WiFi to establish initial connection to the network, some simple options are available. Using any of these options will make the initial connection quick and simple right after the DPL

20 DPL Installation Manual

is taken out of the box and connected to a power source.

These options are:

Default SSID: The DPL comes with pre-configured default SSID and network key (servicedpl /

servicedpl) which will allow automatic connection to a WiFi access point configured with these network properties

Open network auto-connect: DPL will connect to any open WiFi network available (a network with no network key), regardless of its SSID, to establish its initial connection (default)

Pre-configured DPL Units: DPL units can be pre-configured in the production process with the customer’s specific SSIDs and keys, if provided in advance (please contact us for more details)

PC Configuration tool: In cases where none of the above is applicable, you may configure the unit's SSID by connecting the unit to a PC over USB or RS232 and running the DPL Configuration

tool. See 2.4.1

Using any of the options above, the DPL will establish connection with the ForeFleet cloud server, after which it can be set up online using the

DPL Installation Wizard .

2.4. Configuring WiFi Networks

Follow the guidelines below to configure your WiFi networks:

Note: Please read these guidelines thoroughly before installing the DPL5 WiFi units.

2.4.1. Setting Up DPL5 WiFi Networks using DPL Configuration Tool

Proceed as follows to configure the DPL5 WiFi units with all necessary SSIDs and security keys:

1. Connect your DPL5-Wifi unit to 12-24V power supply

2. Connect the unit to your PC using a Serial cable. Connect the cable to the RS-232 diagnostics connector

3. Run the DPL Configuration Tool setup.exe file. Please make sure you are running version 1.9.3.0

or later. The following screen appears (see Figure 2-1)

9. In the WiFi Key field enter the secured network password

10. Click SET to define the network. A new secured WiFi network is set (i.e. WIFI Network 1: hotspot,

WIFI Key 1: wifikey1212)

Note: For field installations / service calls – a default SSID and security key are setup in slot #

15:

WiFi Network 15: servicedpl

WiFi Key 15: servicedpl

2.4.2. WiFi Access Point Guidelines

Vehicles installed with a DPL5WiFi should unload accumulated data regularly. While a mobile hotspot can be used during installation or service calls in remote locations, permanent WiFi access points should be installed in main locations.

Follow the guidelines below in order to set up permanent access points in main parking lots / service stations to download accumulated route / diagnostics data:

The Access Points should be configured with the same SSID and network key as in DPL units,

according to the selected DPL SSID configuration option. Please refer to your Access Point user's manual for instructions on how to set SSID and the network key in the specific model

The DPL5 WiFi is designed to transmit one-week of accumulated data in up to 10 minutes

Permanent access points should be located within a 100 meter (~330 feet) radius

The access points’ SSIDs and security keys should be configured in the DPL5 WiFi prior to installation

Permanent access points’ recommended specifications are provided below. In addition, general instructions for setting up mobile hotspots are also detailed in the following sections
