ADMIN / Alert rules

This page is about ubiFLEET & ubiSMART products

The ubiTT interface allows you to create alert rules and receive real-time alert messages.

Create a new rule

By clicking on the button New rule you start the procedure to create a new alert.

Step 1: Define Target

Provide a name for your Alert and then choose the target that should trigger the alarm.

It can be a single element (device), a group of devices or all devices linked to you project.

Remember that a dynamic group, identified by a (D), is evolving according to the conditions of membership.

Step 2: Period of the alert rule

In this step, you will select the validity period over which the alert rule will be applied: unlimited in time, or limited in time.

Also you can decide to suspend specific periods of the day or focus on certain periods based on your needs.

Finally you can decide to be warned once upon occurrence of the problem you want to know about, or to get warned as long as the problem is not solved.

Step 3: Warnings

There are multiple possibilities to send alerts to (a) recipient(s):

Display on Track & Trace interface:

you wil get a new line in the table from DISPATCHING / Alerts

Send and email:

enter 1 or more email addresses and the system will send a mail with the relevant informations.

If you provide a valid gsm number, the system will send a SMS.

The combination of e-mail and text is possible (separated by “;”)

Please respect following nomenclature : “mobile number (with prefix) @ ubidatasms.be”
(for example : +3247560066@ubidatasms.be)

Send an Alert via messenger

By choosing this option, the system will make as if the DRIVER did warned the DISPATCHER by sending a message from its mobile device when a specific situation occurs.

The message will then appear as unread in the MESSENGER page.

Step 4: Alert types

Select the type of alert. The list of available alerts is linked to the type of device: Mobile or Telematic.
