Truck - semi-trailer communication
All the big transport companies face the problem of how to identify which semi-trailer is attached to a particular truck?
This is very important in controlling transport for:
- Maintenance control
- Repairs
- Accounting
- Identify the location of the semi-trailer
- What is the status of the door or door lock (closed / opened or locked / unlocked)
The problem is solved by the VIB and PIB modules installed and connected to the control system, which communicate via the original connection of the tractor with a semi-trailer
Each PIB module has a unique ID number that allows the transport control system to identify which semi-trailer is attached to which truck.
The communication module acts as a data receiver from the trailer and performs all the functions of the security system (data is transmitted via the factory light cable).
The module and the module control panel, which have a visual and audible indication, are mounted in the cabin of the truck, in a place easily accessible and visible to the driver.
The control panel informs the driver about the status of security system and protected areas.
Data communication - when the data transmission module PIB is installed in the trailer The VIB module in the truck receives data via the factory light cable.
If the trailer is not equipped with a data transmiter, the VIB module can receive data from the trailer via an optional connector.
Applications - control and protection of cargo compartment opening
- Electronic lock status
- Trailer identification
The VIB module can be connected to any transport monitoring system and used as a security system, as well as for the transmission of data on the load compartment, electronic lock status, trailer identification.
VIB module management:
Cargo compartment security management:
Press and hold the button on the control panel for 2 seconds - one siren beeps indicates arming.
Cargo compartment door opening:
Press and hold the button on the control panel for 2 seconds, the siren beeps twice - security system disarmed for 5 minutes and will not respond to the opening of the load compartment door (the control panel beeps every second). When the door is opened, the siren will beep 2 more times to confirm that the door has been opened.
If the door is not opened, after 5 min. the protection will be activated automatically, siren will confirm rearming with one beep.
After closing the cargo door after 5 sec. the protection will be activated automatically, the activation of the protection will be confirmed by 1 siren beep.
Trailer uncoupling control:
Press and hold the button on the control panel for 2 seconds, the siren beeps twice - security system for 5 minutes will not respond to the uncoupling of the trailer.
After uncoupling the trailer within 5 minutes the siren will beep 2 more times to confirm the uncoupling of the trailer. If the trailer is not uncoupled - after 5min. the protection will be activated automatically by confirming it with 1 siren beep.
If the load compartment door is opened or the trailer is uncoupled when the protection is activated, the control panel beeps at the same time in the driver's cab and indicates which zone is violated.
