How to connect TrackGPS
A truckTMS administrator opens Settings → Integrations, picks TrackGPS and enters the username and password of the TrackGPS account with API access. You can also set the company time zone. “Test connection” checks the details before saving.
- Trucks are matched by number plate.
- TrackGPS allows one request every 30 seconds, so positions are read once a minute.
- The odometer comes from truck stops; if a truck has not stopped for a long time, the last value is kept.
What the TrackGPS integration does not bring
Through TrackGPS, truckTMS does not receive fuel use, tachograph data or the driver card. If you need those, the Tracknamic integration provides them. You can use both providers in one account, on different trucks.
