Edge™ 

GreenRoad Edge™ is the hardware that “powers” your fleet’s safety telematics system.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

​

​

 

Installed inconspicuously in your vehicles, GreenRoad Edge™ continuously monitors how your drivers are operating, and provides them with real-time LED feedback to help them achieve a safe, smooth driving style. The device also reports any driving errors to the GreenRoad Central™ web portal, making sure that its KPIs, alerts and reports are up to date.

 

All of GreenRoad Edge™’s real-time analysis is carried out inside the unit, with no connection required to the vehicle’s OBDII diagnostic port, CANbus or Internet. As a result, its use does not expose the vehicle – or, by extension, the company – to security risks.

​

Driver Feedback:

 

GreenRoad Edge™ provides feedback to drivers in real-time via an LED green-yellow-red panel installed on the vehicle’s dashboard.

To keep the alerts discrete, the feedback is visual only, with no voice notification

Whenever the system identifies a risky maneuver, it records:

  • The GPS location where it occurred

  • The vehicle’s speed when the event began and when it ended

  • The event’s elapsed timeframe

 

This detailed data is sent to GreenRoad’s cloud-based database over the cellular network, and can then be viewed in the GreenRoad Central™ web portal.

 

 

​

Note: Safety events are automatically associated with the vehicles in which the devices are installed. If a vehicle is driven by more than one driver, you can use GreenRoad’s RFID or Dallas Key Driver Association solutions to attribute safety events to the right driver.

This feature gives you greater control and flexibility over the download of video clips from your in-vehicle cameras, helping you manage and optimize your monthly SIM data consumption.

 

What This Feature Allows You to Do

With Video Download Rate Limiting, you can customize a policy that limits the number of video clips downloaded within a defined period of time.

 

Key Benefits

  • Prevent Unexpected Data Usage Set clear limits to ensure your camera’s SIM usage stays within your planned data package.

  • Full Flexibility You decide how many clips can be downloaded and over what time window.

  • Visibility Into Data Consumption View the estimated monthly data consumption (30-day forecast).

 

Default Settings

By default, Video Download Rate Limiting is disabled.

The feature becomes active only after you enable it and define your desired policy.

 

How to Access the Video Download Rate Limiting

  1. Log in to GreenRoad Central with your credentials.

  2. Open the Administration tab in the main navigation menu.

  3. Select Policy from the dropdown menu.

If you’d like assistance configuring this feature, our Support team will be happy to help.

 

Note

The limit on the number of video clips is applied chronologically, based on the order in which clips arrive. The system checks each request according to your Video Download Control policy, and only allows downloads until the defined limit for the selected time period is reached.
