How to open the doors of a vehicle with your smartphone?

Avec un boitier :

New generation vehicles are increasingly equipped in series with sensors to collect information.

However, there are only a few solutions that allow the reporting and analysis of this data with alerts or management.

There are 2 options for reporting information:

  • A box called «1st mounts»
    • It concerns vehicles equipped with a standard housing
    • Very few vehicles are equipped with a box today and those that are unfortunately do not know the essential features related to the exercise of your activity.
    • Oxylink sells a solution using a manufacturer’s approved enclosure.
    • Our engineers worked together to integrate innovations:
      • Geolocation Alerts
      • Exact fuel level recovered from the vehicle’s brain
      • Window Openings and Vehicle Closures
      • Cut the boot circuit if the key is not returned
        • And yes.. you had to think about it
  • A case called «second mounts»
    • It concerns vehicles with a computer but without an information collection box
    • We sell several boxes equipped with many sensors according to your needs:
      • Actual fuel level
      • Oil level
      • Actual vehicle km (not a theoretical km: be vigilant)
      • And hundreds more
    • Our boxes have the particularity of not consuming the energy of your batteries when the car is stopped. Many fleet managers contacted us following the towing and the many battery changes with the boxes our competitors. lol
    • Our high-end case processes more than 300 indicators
    • but be careful
      • Some vehicle models are only 2
      • The most connected cars have only a hundred indicators* up. *as of January 31, 2019
      • Hence the need for us to know the model and make of your vehicles
