Notifications tell the administrator if something is not as it should be or if a threshold has been exceeded on preset criteria. The system will show how many unhandled notifications you have with a red number over the notification menu icon. As many notifications are time-critical, you can set up alerts via SMS and/or email.
Open the ‘Notifications’ menu: https://abax.cloud/central/notifications-settings/ or find it from ‘Admin > Notifications’
The following is a list of the available notifications for vehicles:
Gap too high between driven and measured distance (10%+ gap):
Sent if the vehicle reports a 10%+ variance on distance-to-read mileage – this may indicate that the unit has been disconnected.
High speed
Sent if a vehicle exceeds your set maximum speed. You can activate or deactivate this notification and set your speed threshold under the ‘Notification when exceeding maximum speed’ section.
Lost contact
Sent if a unit goes 3-days without submitting a GPS position. This notification disappears as soon as the unit reports again.
Lost power source
Sent if the unit loses its power source.
This may indicate the unit has been tampered with. The unit does have an internal battery but it has a limited duration and you should act immediately.

Sent if a vehicle goes 14-days without registering a trip. The notification disappears as soon as the unit reports a new trip.
