Add New CarChip Wizard

DriveRight FMS includes an Add New CarChip Wizard to simplify adding CarChips to the

database. Click on the links provided for each of the Add CarChip Wizard dialog boxes to see

more detailed information.

To add a new CarChip:

1. Select Add New CarChip from the CarChip Menu.

Note: The new CarChip must be connected to your computer in order to add it to the DriveRight

FMS database.

2. The Add CarChip Wizard - CarChip ID

dialog box displays. Assign an ID to the new

CarChip by selecting the ID already assigned. You can also change the assigned ID by clicking

inside the text box and editing the number, or by clicking on Browse CarChips

to view CarChip

IDs in use at the current location and choosing a number not in use.

3. Click Next to continue. The Add CarChip Wizard - Assign

dialog box is displayed.

3. After assigning the new CarChip to either a vehicle or to a driver, click Next to continue

or click Cancel to exit the Add CarChip Wizard..

If you are assigning the new CarChip to a vehicle, the Vehicles Database Table

is displayed.

Click on a vehicle record in the database table to highlight it, then click Select to assign the

CarChip to the selected vehicle, or click Add New to add a vehicle to assign to the CarChip.

If you are assigning the new CarChip to a driver, the Drivers Database Table

is displayed. Click

on a driver record in the database table to highlight it, then click Select to assign the CarChip to

the selected driver, or click Add New to add a driver to assign to the new CarChip.

Note: Each CarChip should be assigned to either a vehicle or driver. If it is assigned to a vehicle,

the default driver of that vehicle appears on all the data downloaded. If a CarChip is assigned to a

driver, then all data downloaded from that CarChip will be associated with that driver and the

vehicle will be listed as UNKNOWN VEHICLE. This is useful if the driver uses several vehicles

with the same CarChip. Based on your particular case, you should carefully choose between

assigning a CarChip to a vehicle or a driver.

4. After selecting a vehicle or driver from their respective database tables, the CarChip

dialog box is displayed. Click Yes to continue or click No to return to the database table and

make another selection.
