Equipment location and hours for rental teams

Machine-mounted trackers collect position and usage, then send the data over 4G LTE to a shared cloud platform. Rental and construction managers review location, operating hours, geofence events and maintenance priorities.

About Equipment location and hours for rental teams

Mixed rental fleets connect machine location and operating activity with service and rental decisions. GemOne Onyx uses equipment-mounted trackers to bring the represented machines into a cloud platform, providing GPS positions, location history and utilisation records. The application is intended for rental and construction fleets with varied equipment, and the installation and selected tracker interfaces are agreed for each machine group.

The tracker sends its readings over the chosen cellular connection, with current Onyx V4 hardware using 4G LTE. The platform compares positions with configured geofences and organises usage information for reporting. V4 supports dual-CAN inputs for selected operating hours, fuel information and fault codes, but CAN readout requires a bespoke technical setup with the supplier. Access-management or relay functions are included according to the selected installation and operating policy.

Managers can use represented operating hours when planning service, reviewing fleet composition or discussing rental fees and overtime. Geofence notifications prompt a check when equipment crosses an assigned site boundary. The cloud arrangement can include agreed third-party telematics and business-system interfaces, with onboarding and support supplied for the deployment. The available machine data and supported functions depend on the fitted tracker and agreed technical integration.

Questions and answers

Is dual-CAN machine data available immediately after a standard tracker installation?

Onyx V4 supports dual-CAN inputs, but CAN readout requires a bespoke technical setup with the supplier for the selected machine data.

Can the rental platform include trackers from other telematics suppliers?

The Onyx application can integrate agreed third-party tracker data into the cloud fleet view alongside its own connected machines.

Which recorded machine activity can support rental-fee and service discussions?

Location history and utilisation records include the represented operating hours; selected CAN inputs can add fuel information or fault codes after the technical setup.
