    The Vehicles panel is used to add, modify and delete vehicle type definitions. The default vehicle type is “Gateway” which is a generic type not specific to any particular vehicle type. The AMM includes the following vehicle types: Gateway, Ambulance, Bus, Car, Fire-Engine, Flatbed, Heavy-Duty-Bucket-Truck, Heavy Rescue Vehicle, Light-Duty-Bucket-Truck, Pickup, Police-Car, Police-Motorcycle, Police-SUV, Service-Truck, Squads, Straight-Truck, SUV, SWAT-Truck,** and *Water-Tender.

    Note: for customers upgrading from an older version to AMM 2.16, all gateways will default to the “Gateway” vehicle type.

    A vehicle type defines the type of vehicle in which a gateway is installed and specifies the corresponding icon. A vehicle’s icon allows users to quickly identify a vehicle type when viewing gateways in the AMM’s Gateways list and maps. Note that only users who belong to the user group “All Gateways” can edit or delete the vehicles in the Default Vehicle Group.

    To add a new vehicle icon:

    1. Click on Add at the bottom of the list to open the Add or Edit Vehicle Type panel.
    2. Enter the following fields:
      • Name: the name of the vehicle type.
      • Icon File: click Browse to select the image that will be used to represent the vehicle type. These specifications must be adhered to for the icon.
        • Format: .png
        • Maximum file size: 1MB
        • Minimum size: 24x24 pixels
        • Maximum (recommended) size: 48x48 pixels
        • Description: an optional brief description of the vehicle type.
    3. Click Save to create the new vehicle type.

    To assign a vehicle icon to a device:

    Follow the procedure in Adding a new Gateway and set the Vehicle Type field to the desired vehicle icon type.

    To add or update vehicle icon assignments for multiple devices:

    Follow the procedure in Adding Multiple Gateways to an AMM to use the CSV import feature. Configure the Vehicle Type column of the CSV using the following syntax: <vehicle group name> > <vehicle icon name>. For example:

    ID, Name, Groups, Vehicle Type, Customer, Location, Contact, Notes
    H222, , Group1, Group1 > icon1, Customer1, Office, Joe, Main gateway
    H223, , Group1, Default Vehicle Group > Gateway, Customer2, Office, Mark, Secondary gateway
    

    Note: blank fields are ignored.
