Top Questions

Vehicle Location – Where is vehicle now ? And where has it been today (Breadcrumb Trail) ?

Where is it now ?
Go to our tracking website at: track.alltrackusa.com
(For full privacy and security, you’ll be redirected to our High Security, Encrypted SSL Server site at https://track.alltrackusa.com)
NOTE: There’s also a regular non-http: tracking website at track2.alltrackusa.com

Log in with your Username & Password
Click on ‘Tracking’ on the top menu. The map on the right shows where the vehicle is right now.

If you have more than 1 vehicle: On the left there’s a row for your vehicles. Each row has a square checkbox icon. Check it to see that vehicle on the map or not.

Where has it been ?
Click on ‘Tracking’ on the top menu.
On the left there will be ‘Track’ and ‘History’. Click on ‘History’.

Click on the Grey Date Range shown to see a popup.
Change the date range to the days you’re interested in seeing.
Click ‘Search’ in the lower right corner of the pop up.
One the left, each row is for 1 day’s travels. The date is listed.
IMPORTANT: Click on the checkbox next to ‘Start Date’ to show the History of that day’s travels on the map.

Your can see Animation of a vehicle’s travels for a day. After you’ve clicked a checkbox for a day, symbols appear for Animation.
You can place the cursor on each symbol to see what it does. You’ll probably just use ‘Play’ and ‘Stop’.

Alerts – Set up an alert quickly

Select ‘Dashboard’ at the menu at top
In grey box on left, click on the group name to the left of the date/time (This is probably your last name).
Click ‘Setup Alerts’
Click on the desired one in the column ‘Select a Trigger’
In the next column to the right under ‘Configuration and Schedule’, this is when the alert is to be active. Usually every day of week is checked marked. And every minute of the day is set: 00:00 AM – 11:59:59 PM.
Skip the next ‘Display Options’ column
In the next ‘Delivery’ column, enter your email address or cell phone address. You can enter multiple addresses — Just put a semi-colon between each one (“;” – withOut the quotes).
NOTE: The box is small so you can just see the first address, if there are several. You can place the cursor in the box and scroll to the right to see the rest. Scrolling to done with the right and left arrow keys.
(More info on cell phone addresses is just below at ‘Alerts – Sending an alert to a cell phone’)
In the lower right, click ‘Save’

More details on setting up alerts can be found in this document HERE

Alerts – Sending an alert to a cell phone

An alert can be sent to an Email and Cell phone.
Sending it to a cell phone is similar to sending it to an email address. You use the same ‘Delivery’ column as in the section above. But instead of an email address, you put the cell phone address.
An email address is, for example, ‘tom@abc.com’. A cell phone address is the same format, for example, ‘123456789@abc.com’.

The first part is your cell phone number. And the last part is your cellular provider.
Here are common cell provider formats (Replace ‘cellnumber’ with your cellular phone #):
Sprint = cellnumber@messaging.sprintpcs.com
AT&T = cellnumber@txt.att.net
Verizon = cellnumber@vtext.com
T-Mobile = cellnumber@tmomail.net
Tracfone = cellnumber@vtext.com
Virgin Mobile = cellnumber@vmobl.com
US Cellular = cellnumber@email.uscc.net
Nextel = cellnumber@messaging.nextel.com
Boost = cellnumber@myboostmobile.com
Alltel = cellnumber@message.alltel.com

You can easily test if you have the correct address by using a PC to send a message to your phone.
For example, if you use Verizon cell service and your cell phone # is 5551234567, this is your cell phone’s address: 5551234567@vtext.com. Use your PC email software to send a message to this address just like it was an regular email address. In the body of the email you could enter something like ‘test…..’.

For more information, contact your cell phone provider.
And a good Google search for info = ‘Email Text Messages to cell phone’
You can also contact us for help. Email us at techsupport@alltrackusa.com

Dashboard Menu Option

Left 1/3 of screen (a grey box)

Overview of Grey box

The grey box on the left 1/3 of the screen is a summary of all of your vehicle(s) being tracked (You probably have just 1 here).
This is where you go for managing your vehicle settings, options and Alerts.
Below is a breakdown of what everything is:

Group Name

This is where your ‘Group’ of vehicles being tracked is listed, although you probably are just tracking 1 vehicle. So you just have 1 vehicle in your ‘Group’
This is usually your last name.
You can click on this name to go to Group options that can be set.

Date and Time

This is the current day and time for your selected time zone.
If the time zone is incorrect and needs to be changed:
Click on the Group name just to the left of the time (it’s probably your last name)
‘Time Settings’
‘Time Zone’
When done editing, click ‘Save’ in the lower right.

Globe in upper right corner of box

Vehicle

Overview

Here you can see all of the vehicle(s) in your group and edit details about each of them such as make, model and VIN #.
Below is a breakdown of what everything is:

Square check box

This isn’t used much. If you have several devices and want to do something for more than one of them at a time, like Delete them, you could check this box for each one and delete them in 1 step; instead of individually one by one.

Trash Can

This little red trash can is to throw away/ delete a vehicle in the tracking system.
If you click it, you’ll be asked to confirm this by checking a box called ‘Confirm Action’. Then click the ‘Confirm’ box.

Edit (Pencil)

This it Edit vehicle information. Vehicle Name and Speed Gauge being check marked are the only important things here.

Click on the colored box and a range of colors is given. You can drag the ‘+’ symbol in the box around for a desired color. The vertical color band on the right can be dragged up and down for different color ranges.

Setup Alerts

Overview

This is where Alerts should be set up. They’re created for the whole Group, even if it’s just 1 vehicle.

There are no alerts for ‘Posted Speed Limit’. You probably don’t want to receive a text message or email every time the driver goes over the speed limit. Instead, you’ll receive a Daily, Weekly or Monthly summary of when the driver exceeded the posted speed limit. This is selected in the ‘Speed Gauge’ section of this document HERE. You can receive immediate Posted Speed Limit alerts for an additional $1.99/month. Email us if you’re interested.

If an alert is created, a star ‘*’ will appear in front of the alert name in the ‘Select a Trigger’ column

Commands
Ping (Not needed for this product)
To ‘Ping’ means to communicate with the device in the vehicle to request where it is. The ‘Real Time with History’ product calls in it’s location automatically when the ignition is turned on. So the ‘Ping’ feature is not needed.
The ‘Ping’ feature is used for products that do NOT call in automatically. With them, you manually ‘Ping’ them when you want to know where they are.
Although not normally needed, the ‘Ping’ feature is enabled if you would like to manually call the device & have it report it’s current location.

Routing Menu Option

Overview

This is mainly for Fleet owners. It’s used if you have several vehicles out in the field and need to direct one to a location. You can find the closest vehicle to that location; and determine the best route for them to get there.

Search

If you click anywhere on the map it will pick out three of the closest devices in a specific group or all of the groups, depending on what you’re searching for.

Under the check box “Clicking on the map or typing an address” you will see that the latitude and longitude will automatically populate.

You can also search for a location for POI. If you have added POI’s (Points of Interest) then you can click on the drop down box and it will give you the location.

If you are trying to find the closest devices to a POI then you can click one of the options “Within Polygon” and “Within Circle”. This is allow you to draw one of these shapes on the map and find the devices in that range.

Search Directions

Here you can choose a start and end location anywhere on the map and get turn by turn directions.

Geofence Menu Option

Overview

A Geofence is virtual perimeter for a real-world geographic area and can be any shape and size. It’s common to use them around home, school and work so you know when your teen driver enters and exits these areas.

You can optionally set up alerts so you’re notified in Real Time if they enter and exit these areas. Otherwise you can run a report later to see when this happened.

These are the steps in using Geofences
1) Create a Geofence
2) Assign it to a vehicle
3) Optional: Set up alerts to be notified in Real Time if the vehicle enter and exit.

The upper right corner of the map has 4 items:

Reports Menu Option

Overview

There are about 25 reports available. After you click the ‘Reports’ menu option, the top left corner shows ‘My Reports’ and ‘Report Templates’. Click on ‘Report Templates’ to see all of the available reports. Once a report is created you save it and run it in the future. When you’re done creating a report, you’re asked to give it a name. Make something up that will help you know what the report is all about.

You can create many variations of each report and give each a slightly different name. For example, here’s the same basic report saved in 4 different variations. Each can be run any time:
Mileage by State – Monthly – Chart form
Mileage by State – Weekly – Chart form
Mileage by State – Monthly – Grid form
Mileage by State – Weekly – Grid form

My Reports

These are reports that you’ve saved from the available ‘Report Templates’.

Report Templates

These are all available reports. When you use a template, at the end you give it a report name that means something to you.

Speed Gauge Menu Option

Overview

Speed Gauge is our ‘sister’ company that handles the DOT Posted Speed Monitoring.

Here you can see if the driver exceeded the DOT (US Department of Transportation) Posted Speed Limits. You can see WHEN speeding took place & WHERE it took place.
And when they drove, what % of the time they were speeding.

***** A Fantastic Tool ****** is the ‘Speeding Frequency Trend’ chart. See below for how to view that.

You can have a Report of DOT Speeding incidents emailed to you daily, weekly or monthly. And you can have a Weekly Summary Report of DOT Speeding incidents emailed to you, too. This ‘Speed Gauge’ menu option is used to turn these reports On & Off. This can be done with the menu options ‘Report Settings’ & then ‘Report Subscription Settings’.

You probably don’t want to receive alerts every time your teen goes over the DOT speed limit. That’s why you receive a report the next morning. If you must, you can receive immediate DOT Posted Speed Limit alerts for an additional $1.99/month. Email us if you’re interested.

Login Screen

You should have an email from Speed Gauge with the password used here. Enter your email address and the password here.

You should rarely use this menu option. It’s to change settings for the Posted Speed Limit alerts & reports.
