In this “tip of the month” we will look at how to export all data or positions from the route history in a readable *.CSV format.
The purpose of this export is mainly in certain proving.
Is it necessary to prove that a certain vehicle did not exceed the speed limit at a given moment? Or it is simply a matter of presenting evidence in a certain accident that had happened.

In the “Positions” window, select all positions by clicking CTRL+A on the keyboard at the same time:
Right-click inside the “Positions” window and select “Save as CSV”.
At the end, we just choose the path and write down the file name for the export we made.
There is also another option how to export history route.

Setting stops - October 2023
Can I set a stopover period in travel orders?

You can change these settings by clicking Tools > Options and selecting the »Stops Tab«.
Explanation of individual parameters when setting stops:
- Drive [s] – in the event that the vehicle does not drive between two stops for more than a given number of seconds, the two stops will be combined into one
- Difference [s] – If the stop will be longer than the given number of seconds, the stop will not be displayed
- Speed [km/h] – as long as the driver does not exceed the given speed, all the positions he completes are still counted as a stop
- Period[s] – Only stops longer than the given number of seconds will be displayed
- Radius [s] – in case you also use POI / points of interest, here we can define the radius in which a certain point is recorded.
- Midnight tretment – if you check this box, it means that every event that ran past midnight will be added to the day in which it started. Otherwise, the event cuts us off at midnight so that each part is added to the corresponding day.

GpsWin user program update - March 2023
In this month, we will present how the user checks if he is using the updated GpsWin 2.5 user program with all upgrades released up to that point. The update can be done in two ways. In the first one, we can set automatic time update or the so-called silent update mode. We carry out this process in the tab Tools > Options > GpsWin > Update. When a new update is available, only this one will be performed automatically. You can read more about this in the Additional settings chapter.
Another way is to update manually. In this case, we recommend that you pre-set the check for new updates anyway. How long the automatic update query will take depends on the preset. We define this in the Tools > Plugins > Settings tab where we define the check interval for new updates in the Automatically Check for Updates field. Manual startup is done by clicking Help > Check for Updates. If any upgrade is available, a pop-up notification will open in the form of a bubble. At the same time, a new Plugin Installer update wizard appears.
In the case of an automatic update check, the notification appears in a bubble, and to open the Plugin Installer, click on the blue text inside the bubble. If we missed the notification, we can see it again by clicking on the icon in the lower right corner of the application.
Picture 1: Update alert
Picture 2: Plugin Installer is a wizard for installing upgrades that takes us through the process of updating the application.
Explanation of fields in the wizard:
- Information about the modules for which there is an update. The version number of the upgrade for each module is shown next to it. If we change our mind during the process of an individual module, we can still interrupt it during the duration of the module by clicking on Cancel and choose another one, or end the process without updating. However, we recommend that you update at least once every six months.
- In the next step, the wizard informs us about the rights and the license. The checked box »I accept the terms in all of the license agreements« allows us to Update. With a click, the given upgrade is installed on the application.
- After the installation is complete, the wizard asks if we want to restart the application now or later. Click Finish to complete the installation.
Additional settings when updating:
You can see what all the additional update options are by opening the Options (Tools > Options) and selecting the GpsWin > Update subtab.
The following settings are located here:
- Silen update – if you chech this box, the application will silently update us automatically without notifications every time an update is availabe. The progress of the update will only show us a progress indicator in the lower right corner of the application.
- Install new module – checking this box allows a silent update so that new modules available to the application can be installed in addition to the update.

The functionality comes is super handy in some scenarios as it enables graphical analysis and review of routes traveled for different vehicles at the same time or another example one vehicle with different drivers.
The first step it is to load the route history for the selected vehicles by using the window »Devices« and choosing »Load history«.
![calendar](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/calendar.png)

Changing charts colours in GpsWin - September 2021
This month we would like to show you how you can change the color of the graphs located in the Analog, Speed, and Temperature windows.
For starters let us see how we even get to these windows?
If we click on the Window menu and hover over Charts an additional selection menu will pop-up. It is good to point out that the Speed window is visible to all customers, while the Temperature and Analog windows are only for those customers, who use our connection to digital temperature or analog sensors.

GpsWin access to older historical data - August 2021
In the previous tip, we talked about the new feature for viewing route history just for the current day.This time let us take a look at another feature in the route history segment.
We have noticed that client, when loading a route history, sometimes think they can review historical data only for the past four months.
This is not the case; the historical route data can always be reviewed for the past and current year. Usually sometime at the start of the year all the positions for all the data before the previous year is archived, which is then still available upon special request from the customer.
In the window for history data, clients often overlook the two calendars located in the lower left corner.
![load-history-1](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/load-history-1.jpg)
Load history calendar button
By clicking on the calendar located in the far-left corner, we can move back an additional four months one view at a time.
![load-history-calendar-button-cont](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/load-history-2.jpg)
Load history calendar button continued
In the end it is possible to move back and forth for each 4 month period at a time, with the help of the two calendar buttons.
GpsWin history today - July 2021
We have recently implemented a new function in GpsWin, which we would like to introduce here. It is a shortcut for that makes loading the historical data for the current day much easier and quicker. The way to do it is to just right click on the device in question and click on History today.
![menu-history-today](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/Menu-history-today.jpg)

Configuration directory .gpswin - August 2019
If we happen to encounter a very specific error in the program that cannot be resolved with normal troubleshooting measures, we can try deleting the .gpswin configuration folder.
This especially comes in handy if we cannot open a particular window in the application or if the window generally does not work as it should.
The folder can also be used to copy or transfer all of your personalized program settings from one computer to another.
You can find the folder in C: \ Users \ gasper \ AppData \ Roaming \ .gpswin – *gasper is meant to represent the name of the user who logs in to the computer.
Note: When deleting or just copying a folder, we need to make sure that we have closed GpsWin beforehand.
Garmin update - July 2019
Everybody that is using a gps device in combination with Garmin navigation for written commnunication and navigation, has experienced situations, where there were certain problems such as: inaccurate navigation, different route than usual, etc.. Unfortunately these things occur right when you are in a hurry. Though it may look like there is something wrong with the Garmin device, it is not neccessarily so. Most often it occurs due to the Germin’s memory being full from to many recently found adresses and/or outdated software. If we perform software updates regulary and delete history of found locations, we can avoid most situations like this.
Garmin updates are done via Garmin Express application. You connect the Garmin with your computer via a usb cable and then you just follow the steps in application.

Therefore we made a new report that gives you the information about when exactly the start and end of vehicle activity in a day occurred. The report also indicates the start and end of the drive specifically. The point of the report is that a user can quickly see the time difference between first ignition in the day and the actual start of the drive. The same comparison is also available for the end of the day.

Group management window - February 2019
In this months tip, we will look at the group window. It can monitor dynamic and static groups.
By selecting Window > Tracking > Groups option in the toolbar menu you open the Groups window in which devices are grouped together in static and dynamic groups. You can copy devices from the static groups into dynamic groups. Additionally, you can move devices between dynamic groups, as well as cut, delete and paste devices within individual dynamic groups. Managing dynamic groups is possible only if you have Admin rights. You can have the same device in multiple groups. Devices within the groups are displayed the same way as in the Devices window. Things like the states icons and history can only be displayed in static groups.

Event Archive in Vehicle Maintenance - January 2019
In the always more often used module for Vehicle maintenance a new function for archiving events has been added.
![event-archive](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Event-arhive-VM.jpg)
Event archive
The Archive records an entry when we choose the option Archive via the right click on the maintenance event that was accomplished.
![archive-button-option](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Option-archive-button.jpg)
Archive button option
After we choose that option the icon of the event changes and the event is entered into the Archive and seen in the corresponding window. The button Archive in bottom left corner has a function of Hide/Show archived events. When the button is highlighted in blue, we can see the archived events. In the opposite case archived events are not seen.
![event-archive-display](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Event-archive-on.jpg)

Tip of the month 2018
Transformation of data - December 2018
In this month’s tip of the month series , we will present the meaning of data transformation for four parameters that are visible in the Positions window.
Data Transformation
You can access the transformation window in View > Transformation > … Here you can uncheck specific transformations and with that turning them off. GpsWin does not save the status of transformations therefore the values are reset to default every time you restart the application. By default all transformations are set as enabled (checked). The transformation itself enables the conversion of the device signals into meaningful values/words. In some cases, if the transformation is not set in the system the fields stay empty. If you turned off the transformation then all signals are presented as numeric value.
![data-transformation-window](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/data-transformation1.png)
Data transformation window
- Driver – transformation of the drivers identification key into the drivers full name. This transformation is set on server side and can be managed in s-Admin.
- Digital – transformation of digital sensor signal values into meaningful words/actions. The transformation is presented based on a specific value of the digital sensor, this specific value can be linked and converted to a state name.
- Analog 1, Analog 2 and Analog 3 – transformation of analog sensor signal value into a meaningful number (e.g. conversion of analog mV signals into oC). This transformation is set on server side.
- Output status – transformation of output signal value into a meaningful state. The transformation is presented and converted based on a specific output value that signal value is associated with.

Data search in Positions window - November 2018
In the Positions window we find all the positions for a selected period of time. Because of the density of position sending, there are lots of them. For that purpouse there is a few ways to quick search in the Positions window. Because of the high number of positions the search data is so more precise. As we emphasize regurarly, this window is meant for searching a specific information (for example a speed violation, proofing stop locations at a certain adress at a certain time,…). A few way to search for specific data are described below:
- Sorting from A to Z and reverse:
![sorting positions in gpswin](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Sorting_positions.jpg)
Sorting positions in the positions window
You can sort position by any column in the Positions window. With a mouse clik on the name of the column an arrow is displayed to show that the sorting is enabled. As shown in picture, we can access information about highest speed with one click. The choosen position is also shown on the map (highlighted with yellow).
Tip: if we sort data by Time and then mark the first line, we can move through positions with the Arrow button on the keyboard. This way we simulate the route on the map.
- Selection of sections/group of positions:
![multiple position selection](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Selection_section_positions.jpg)
Multiple position selection in positions window
With Ctrl key on the keyboard combined with the mouse we can select a section of positions on a map that we are interested in. The section is highlighted yellow on map and blue in Positions window. This way we can thoroughly review information about time, speed, etc for the selected section of positions. The process can also be done in reverse. With the combination of Ctrl key and a mouse we can mark rows in the Positions window that we are interseted in and the marked positions are then higlighted yellow on the map.
- Quick search:
![Quick search in gpswin](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Quick_search.jpg)
Quick search in the positions window
With the key q on the keyboard we can open a Quick search in the Positions window. In the drop down menu we can choose the column in which we want to search for data. In the row beside the drop down menu we type in the desired information. The program searches for it and it shows it in blue. At the same time the position is highlighted yellow on the map.

Traffic information and Streetview - September 2018
Precise and timely traffic information is more and more important these days so your vehicle can be on time. Saving time also means saving money. For that purpose you can now monitor your vehicles movement and at the same time you can monitor traffic information. We have updated Maps in GpsWin with traffic flow in the area of Slovenia and 50 km area around it. In the future we are planning to expand traffic information to all Europe.
For testing purposes traffic information will be available to all users for a one-month trial period for free. Traffic flow will be shown automatically with each login into GpsWin. However, you will be able to turn it of by clicking on the button on the map at any time.
![traffic-information](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Traffic-information.jpg)
Traffic information and flow
We also updated our Streetview function due to the policy changes made by Google. We had to adjust the Streetview within the Balloon, that you activate by double clicking on the vehicle. The Streetview will update only by clicking on the »refresh« button.

Changing the memory size in GpsWin - August 2018
This month, we will show you how to change the size of the GpsWin 2 memory.
This comes in handy primarily for companies that monitor a greater number of vehicles and (or) have more digital and analog sensors in their Tracking package.
In the C: \ Program Files \ gpswin \ etc \ gpswin.conf file, we change the line below.
default_options = “- branding gpswin -J-Xms24m -J-Xmx512m -J-Duser.language = en -J-Duser.region = SI”
eg. If we want to increase the memory in the program from 512m to 4g, we do this by changing “512m to 4g”
default_options = “- branding gpswin -J-Xms24m -J-Xmx4g -J-Duser.language = en -J-Duser.region = SI”
Note: To change the settings in the gpswin.conf file, we need to first open Wordpad as Administrators and then the gpswin.conf file from it. It’s also good to know that we always set the memory up to half the total amount of the memory that a computer has.
Export of Vehicle Timeline and Drive reports from GpsWin - May 2018
We made two more shortcuts so that you can access data in GpsWin more quickly. First one is the option to export Vehicle Timelines for an entire group of vehicles. The second one is the option to export Vehicle drive reports for an entire group of vehicles. You can find both options in the window Groups (Window/Tracking/Groups). Both reports are accessible and exported in CSV format (excel).
![vehicle-group-tab](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Tracking_groups.jpg)
Vehicle groups tab
First we have to load the histroy for the vehicle group that we are interested in and we do that with a right click on the group name and choose the option »Load history«. A calendar opens up, where you can mark the desired day/period of time.
![vehicle-group-history](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/History_groups.jpg)
Loading vehicle group history
![history-vehicle-group](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/History_of_vehicles_group.jpg)
History period of vehicle group
When the history for all vehicles in the group is uploaded, we can export the data in a form of a Timeline or as a Vehicle drive report.cBoth shortcuts are availabile with a rigt click on the group’s name.
![timeline-drive-reports](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Timeline_chosen.jpg)
Choosing timeline or vehicle drive reports
When we pick the option that we wanted the only thing that is left to do, is to choose a folder on the computer where the files should be stored. The CSV file opes in Excel.
![timeline-report-excel](https://www.sledenje.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Timeline_export.jpg)

Therefore, before entering into the program, press the F12 key on the keyboard.
The “Options” window will open, where under the “General” button and the “Manual Proxy Settings” option you can enter your proxy server.
To make sure that the link really works, click on the “Test connection” button.
GpsWin and tacho module - February 2018
Anyone who works in transport and logistics knows how important accurate information about remaining driving time is. The system Sledenje.com enables on-line insight into individual driver’s card status and the history of activities logged on each individual driver’s card (drive, work, rest,…). Beside real-time states and data history, the system also enables remote ddd file transfer. Downloads contain driver card files and tachograph files from the vehicle.
A sophisticated algorithm for on-line Tacho states and remaining driving time gives you accurate information as a cornerstone for planning transport routes, etc. Information is available per each day, week period and two week period.

Changing vehicle icon - November 2017
This month’s tip of the month is meant for everybody, who would like to organize their fleet with the help of different icons, which indicate devices/vehicles on the map. This solution is especially useful for companies with different brands as well as types of vehicles in their fleet. Different type of vehicle usually means different type of function so instead of wondering if the vehicle you are planning to send to complete a specific task is the right one, have the icon tell you automatically.
To change the icon of a vehicle, first select the specific vehicle in the Devices, afterwards move onto the corresponding window Device, go under the Map section within that window, select Icon and there you can choose the preferred icon:

Synchronize messages - October 2017
In this month’s tip we will present “synchronization of messages”.
The function is especially important for transport companies that employ a large number of dispatchers. The function allows you to synchronize all sent reports at once, which dispatchers have to send to devices in the vehicles that are in the field.
First of all, we need to have an open “Messages” window, which can be found by clicking on “Window> Messages”. Then in the window itself, we must check the box named “Synchronize Outbox”.
Finally, for successful synchronization, just click on the “Synchronize”
button on the toolbar.
