INTRODUCING DCC 1.8

The release of the Secomea Data Collection Cloud (DCC) 1.8 has finally arrived, and we are excited to introduce you to some major new features. Learn more about the new features below and read our full release notes for more information about other improvements and fixes.

NEW FLEET MANAGEMENT MODULE

The new fleet management module in DCC empowers you to stay in full control of your fleet of machines and gain real-time visibility into machine location and performance.

Watch our how-to-video to learn more about the use of the new Fleet Management Module.

GAIN A VISUAL OVERVIEW OF YOUR FLEET IN THE MAP WIDGET

Your fleet of machines can be visualized in a list view or on a map. In both cases, you can apply selected status info for the machines, such as error state and KPIs. Allowing you to quickly identify a machine to unfold and study its detailed dashboard. You can combine both views, so you have the selected status in the list, and on the map, you have the geographic location. On the map, you can also hover over a specific machine and bring its selected status info.

TRANSLATE DATA WITH THE LOGISTICS TEMPLATE

Associated with the Fleet Management module, you will also discover new functionality in the Logistics Template found under Account Setup, which allows you to automatically enroll a new machine in the Fleet Management module. Hence, it appears in the list or map and inherits the selected dashboard template for the type of machine.

You can “translate” data collected from your SiteManager to info in your dashboard widgets in the Logistics Template. This allows your data to be translated to text, symbols, and colors, so you get a better visualization of status and KPIs in the Fleet Management dashboard views. This also allows you to translate data values into user-friendly information, such as translating error code 67 into “robot stopped” or even an icon illustrating a stopped robot.

Additionally, you define static user-friendly information, such as the number plate of a vehicle, a country code for the machine location, etc.

SCHEDULE REPORTS TO BE GENERATED AUTOMATICALLY

Our customers have been requesting the possibility to schedule reports to be generated automatically and without defining in a dashboard, and we are happy to now realize that wish.

Under the newly introduced Utilities menu, which replaced the former Alarms menu, you can, in addition to Alarms, now also define scheduled reports. This eliminates the need for generating email reports manually and makes it easier for you and your customers to consolidate your data outside DCC.
