Load Counts by Truck - [Legacy]

Track load activity and average cycle times per truck using PTO-verified dump events.

Introduction

The Load Counts by Truck report tracks how many loads a truck completes and how long it takes to complete each cycle. To work correctly, the equipment must have PTO wired into the blue wire for accurate dump detection. This report helps evaluate fleet efficiency, distance traveled between loads, and time between dump events.


Navigation

To access this feature:

Go to: Manage > Legacy Reports > Load Counts by Truck


Use This Report To:

  • Count the number of load/dump cycles for a selected truck

  • Calculate time between dump events (cycle time)

  • View distances traveled between dump events

  • Access breadcrumb trail visualizations for each cycle


Step-by-step Instructions

  1. Go to Manage > Legacy Reports > Load Counts by Truck

  2. Under Report Filters:

    • Enter a Minimum Cycle Time in minutes to filter out false cycles

    • Select a specific piece of equipment (required)

    • Enter a Report Start Date and End Date

  3. (Optional) Set Asset Type in the left panel

  4. Click Generate Report


Column Definitions

  • Row Number: Simple row count for reference

  • Load Count Time: Timestamp of the dump event

  • Cycle Time: Time since the last dump event

  • Travel Distance: Distance traveled between dumps

  • Dump Location: GeoZone name where the dump occurred (multiple zones shown if overlapping)

  • Cycle Route: Click Route Path to view a breadcrumb map of the truck’s movements leading up to the dump


Breadcrumb Trail (Route Path View)

Clicking Route Path opens a map showing the vehicle’s breadcrumb trail before the dump event:

  • View path, direction of travel, and event markers

  • Use Animate, Legend, and Log controls to interact with the route


Export Options

After generating the report, you can export using:

  • Print Table

  • Download CSV

  • Excel Formatted CSV


Requirements

  • This report requires accurate dump event detection via PTO

  • FleetWatcher devices use the blue wire to monitor PTO activity

  • Customers typically connect the blue wire to the truck’s PTO, which controls the dump bed

  • When the dump bed is raised, FleetWatcher logs:

    • How many times it’s raised

    • How long it stays raised

  • If the PTO wire is not connected, dump events and cycle times will not be logged
