In section “Fuel parameters”:
“Fuel tank”, select a number of fuel tanks installed on VH:
- primary only, a VH has only one fuel tank installed;
- primary and additional, a VH has two fuel tanks. Primary vessel of fuel servicing trucks is a cistern and additional vessel is a tank with fuel for engine. For a vehicle a primary vessel is a tank with fuel for additional equipment.
Measurement units of parameters are liters or gallons are given depending on server settings.
Fuel parameters-imagem
“Parameters of primary fuel tank” for vehicle and additional tank for a fuel tanker:
“Refueling limit, l” (from 0 to 2800) is a fuel volume by which accumulate volume of VH fuel shall be increased within a set period of time, in order a fuelling would be recorded.
“Drain limit, l” (from 0 to 2800) is a fuel volume by which accumulate volume of VH fuel shall be decreased within a set period of time, in order a drain would be recorded.
Refueling/drain values limits and a size a rough filter are selected based on fuel tank volume, values of identified refuellings/drains and operating conditions of a vehicle.
In cases when operating conditions and characteristics of a vehicle cause major fluctuations of fuel level, it is required to increase refuellings/drains limit values and a size of a rough filter compared to default values.
In cases when operating conditions and characteristics of a vehicle cause minor fluctuations of fuel level, it is allowed to decrease refuellings/drains limit values and a size of a rough filter compared to default values.
Refueling threshold default value, l is 19.
Drain threshold default value, l is 19.
Rough filter size (5– 50), default value is 15.
“Normal consumption per 100 km, l” (from 0 to 1000 within the accuracy to 0.1 l) is a volume of fuel consumed by a VH per 100 km (for cars only).
“Normal mileage for 1 l, km” is a VH mileage per 1 l of fuel. The parameter is given depending on a selected standard.
“Normal consumption per running hour, l” (from 0 to 1000 within the accuracy to 0.1 l) is a volume of fuel consumed by a VH per running hour (for cars only).
“Normal consumption per hour, l” (from 0 to 1000 within the accuracy to 0.1 l) is a volume of fuel consumed by a VH within time period between readings meterings from sensor (for cars only).
“Correction coefficient for fuel tanks” (0.01 to 1.99) is used for correction of Omnicomm liquid level sensors readings.
“Buffer length” provides more uniform sequence of average level of fuel after processing on Omnicomm Online (10 –100). E.g. it ensures smoothing of fuel level generated on data processed on Omnicomm Online (blue graph). Default value is 70. If a value of a buffer length decreases, a fuel volume graph charted based on processed data (blue graph) becomes more like fuel volume graph charted based on raw data (pink graph).
“Additional fuel tank parameters” for a vehicle and additional tank for a fuel tanker: Parameters setup for an additional fuel tank is performed similar to setup of a primary fuel tank parameters.

Refueling and drains search algorithm parameters-imagem
For refueling and drains search algorithm “Taking in account time parameters”:
“Maximum allowed time of refueling interruption, sec” is a time period within refueling during which a fuel level may not increase. Default value is 30 s.
“Maximum allowed time of drain interruption, sec” is a time period within drain during which a fuel level may not decrease (taking in account normal fuel consumption). Default value is 30 s.
Setup of time parameters shall be performed taking in account value “Period of data collection” and analysis of particular locations, on which draining/refueling events have not been identified or have been broken down.
Quartile is an arithmetic mean value of some number of locations with raw fuel data before start and after finish of fuel operation with an eliminated quarter of minimum and maximum values and used to determine a fuel level before and after refuelling/drain.
Calculation of a quartile is performed in accordance with fuel level values number obtained within time specified in parameter “Time period for quartile calculation, min”.
“Time fuel operation end in movement” shall be selected depending on filtration value setup in terminal. Recommended values at filtration levels:
- Off is 0;

- Medium is 120;
- Strong is 200;
- Maximum is 300;
