  • Device and method for asset platform determination for an asset with a multi-interface port
    Patent number: 12106671
    Abstract: A method by a telematics device for identifying an asset platform for an asset coupled to the telematics device is provided. The asset has a multi-interface port and the telematics device determines the asset platform based on matching tags on both a primary interface and a secondary interface. Identifying the asset platform aids in obtaining asset data and avoiding operational interference.

  • Systems and methods for configuring a non-interfering mode in a telematics device
    Patent number: 12094268
    Abstract: Methods and systems of enabling a non-interfering mode in a telematics device are provided. The method may be used to prevent interference between a telematics device and a diagnostic tool connected to the same vehicle communications bus. When a diagnostic tool is detected, the telematics device enables a non-interfering mode. Advantageously, the operation of diagnostic tools such as emissions testing diagnostic tools, is not disrupted.

  • Method and device for capturing vehicle trip parameters by a telematics device
    Patent number: 12094261
    Abstract: A telematics device and a method by the telematics device are provided. The method includes detecting a vehicle starting event and sending a first plurality of parameter requests while refraining from sending a second plurality of parameter requests for a requests-off duration after the vehicle starting event. After the expiry of the requests-off duration, sending the second plurality of parameter requests. In response to detecting a vehicle turning off event, sending a third plurality of parameter requests before the expiry of a post vehicle turning off duration.

  • Device and method for capturing and validating vehicle trip parameters
    Patent number: 11823504
    Abstract: A telematics device and a method by the telematics device are provided. The method includes detecting a vehicle starting event and sending a first request while refraining from sending a second request for a requests-off duration. After the expiry of the requests-off duration, sending the second request. In response to detecting a vehicle turning off event, sending a third request and receiving a third response up to a post vehicle turning off duration.
