Display configuration

DescriptorValues
{directionIcon}If the truck device is capable of returning a direction in degrees, this value is converted to one of eight values: N, S, W, E, NW, NE, SW, SE. This is then translated to one of eight icons which can be displayed in the label.
{truckNumber}The truck number, as displayed in the truck list.
{truckStatus}Available
ASSIGNDRIVER
ENROUTE
ARRIVED
HOOKED
DROPPED
{truckShortStatus}Blank (Available)
AD (ASSIGNDRIVER)
E (ENROUTE)
A (ARRIVED)
H (HOOKED)
D (DROPPED)

Label templates can be specified for both assigned and unassigned trucks. It may be desirable, for a company with a large number of vehicles on the map, to customize the unassigned truck label to not show the status at all, saving map space.

Examples

For truck 101, headed in direction 323 degrees (NW), not currently assigned to a job, and
truck 102, headed in direction 125 degrees (SE), assigned to and enroute to a job:
