RPM Idling Alert

Definition / Description

The RPM Idling alert is triggered when a vehicle’s engine remains within the configured idling RPM range for an extended duration. This alert helps fleet managers or operators identify excessive idling, which can lead to unnecessary fuel consumption, increased emissions, and engine wear. Monitoring idling behavior helps promote efficient driving and reduces operational costs.

Parameters Considered (Prerequisites)

  • RPM Sensor: The connection type must be established with the RPM from the sensors connected list.
  • Idling RPM :The range of Idling must be defined, from the Sensor Calibration while adding an object.

Note: The RPM can be calibrated through Settings > General > Object > Sensors > Sensor Calibration.

  2. From the Alert Type dropdown, choose RPM Idling.
  3. Enter an Alert Name as per your preference.
  4. Configure the Duration (in seconds) for which the vehicle must remain idle within the RPM range before triggering the alert.

Use Case

An RPM Idling alert is triggered when a vehicle’s engine remains within the calibrated idle RPM range for longer than the configured duration. Notifications are sent via SMS, Email, or In-App Notification, enabling fleet managers or operators to monitor prolonged idling behavior, take corrective action to reduce fuel wastage, and promote better engine and environmental health.
