Move detections

Detect the move of your components

Updated over a month ago

Automated move detection allows you to detect component swaps automatically based on telematic data available within the Railnova platform.

For example, it can detect the change of a Diesel engine as soon as it is installed.

Pre-requisites:

  • Your company has access to the Component Management module

  • You are a company admin, so you have access to the admin pages

  • You already know about component structures

Set up move detection

For the system to be able to detect automatically a component swap, you need to specify to the system where it can find the serial ID of the component you want to detect swaps for, in the telematic data.

When setting up a component structure, you can enable component move detection by configuring the following:

  • Auto serial message type: this is the message type in which the serial information of your component can be found in the telematic data

  • Auto serial field name: this is the specific field where the serial information of your component can be found within the message type previously mentioned.

In the following example, the CAT diesel engine serial number is available in our telematic data under the message type “cat_engine_report” and the field “engine_serial.”

When these two fields are provided, the system can detect changes in the serial number within telematic data and suggest component moves (swap, unmount or mount). As a company admin, you can review detected moves by navigating to Component Management and Move Detections.

Confirm component moves

On this page, you will find all suggested component moves, with the option to confirm them by clicking the Confirmation link. Confirmation will automatically unmount the previous component and make it available in your default inventory, while the new component will be mounted in its place.
