• Advanced authorization method, available for the fleet manager via the web, including
several rules and restrictions to be applied to each fueling authorization unit

mentioned above. A grace period can be defined to limit the time a station can continue
authorizing vehicles in off-line mode

1.2.3. Fleet Management
FHO is responsible for collecting and distributing information regarding the fleets from and to all
relevant SiteOmat stations. The process complies with the following criteria:
• Each station is connected to the FHO directly
• Data is collected at pre defined time intervals
• Only the changed data (delta) from last collection is captured, which reduces
communication overhead. Data collection is done at predefined time intervals. The update
interval can be set for each station
• Access to data is protected by username and password. The user must be defined in the
Station Controller that is connected to the FHO
• All authorizations are done locally – the stations are on-line since the authorization data is
continuously updated by the FHO
• A station may continue working off-line, under the constraints imposed by configuration
• The FHO can only retrieve the data relevant to its fleets
