How do I set up fuel theft alerts?

Introduction

Fuel data coming from an Analog or CAN input can be used to generate fuel theft alerts, i.e. the fuel level drops too quickly.

Hardware Requirements

Data must come to the platform in the form of Analog or CAN data, and must reflect the fuel tank level. Please speak to your hardware provider about the options available to you for getting this type of data to the platform.

Platform Requirements

There are three easy steps to getting a fuel theft alert set up on the platform, after creating the Asset and Device:

1. Create the correct IO Type (Analog or CAN) for the fuel level, and calibrate as needed,

2. Create Asset Event Triggers to generate an event if the level drops too quickly (you decide this value), and 

3. Create an Alert to trigger when the event is generated.
