Miles/Hours Per Gallon and Reasonable Odometer/Hours Check
Description The MPG/HPG option (which includes reasonable odometer/hours check) allows
the Series 1000 system to calculate and maintain a miles-per-gallon or hours-per-
gallon tally for a set number of vehicles (NOTE: Hours-per-gallon is used when
user equipment is monitored with an hour meter instead of an odometer). The
type of option, MPG or HPG, is chosen at the time of order. Also, the maximum
number of vehicles supported depends on the size of the vehicle file which was
chosen at the time of order.
Enable/Disable In a cardless system, all user information is stored in a vehicle file. Every vehicle
in the file may be configured as to whether or not the system will calculate
MPG/HPG and execute a reasonable odometer/hours check on it. If the feature
is disabled for a vehicle record, the system will continue to update the total
gallons and odometer/hours entries, but MPG/HPG will not be calculated.
MPG File
Information
MPG/HPG software computes fuel efficiency two ways: per transaction and
averaged over a period of time (usually a month). To use the MPG/HPG option,
additional information is added to the vehicle file. The vehicle information for
MPG is different than that for HPG; both types are shown below.
The MPG option adds the following fields to each vehicle record:
•
VEH 1- to 8-digit vehicle number
•
B ODOM up to 6-digit beginning odometer reading
•
E ODOM up to 6-digit ending odometer reading (last recorded)
•
MILES 6-digits for miles driven
•
GALLONS up to 8-digits for total gallons for period
•
MPG 3 digits before and one after the decimal point for MPG value
•
STAT a record status code indicating MPG comments (for more on
status flags, see the Operation Manual)
