Vehicle Connectivity Gateway VCG-2

Integrated in vehicles from various manufacturers and connected to different portals, the DSA VCG-2 provides a wide range of diagnostic and telemetry information via mobile online connection.

The telematics and diagnostics unit VCG-2 (Vehicle Connectivity Gateway) proves to be a true all-rounder among the telematics units. The Microsoft Azure certified device establishes a connection between the vehicle and different web portals. Via portal, the status information of the vehicle can be retrieved and vehicle actions can be triggered remotely.

Benefits

Cyclic transmission of GPS position to various portals for efficient vehicle dispatching
Readout of relevant vehicle data via WLAN connection
Recording of machine status enables remote monitoring and preventive maintenance
Easy firmware update remotely via Firmware Update Over-the-Air (FOTA)

An integrated rechargeable battery ensures transmission of position and status even when the power supply is switched off.
An internal accelerometer detects motion and provides theft protection.
A provided development environment with a modular, app-based software architecture enables the creation of own device applications.

Communication mechanisms

The VCG-2 comes with the following communication mechanisms:

LTE Internet connection to the portal
GPS/GLONASS satellite position detection
WLAN and Bluetooth LE for local diagnostics & additional functions
One-Wire, RS232, digital and analog inputs for communication with sensors/signal transmitters
CAN and Ethernet for communication with controllers and diagnostics
ISM receiver for 315 / 433 MHz, e.g. for direct connection of tire pressure sensors.

The VCG-2 is a fully featured VCI with ISOBUS capable D-PDU API interface (PRODIS.PDU) as well as PassThru functionality. External devices can be connected via RS232 and Ethernet and use the VCG-2 as a telemetry unit. In addition, connectivity to various portals, such as Microsoft Azure-based platforms, is possible. DSA provides trailer, agricultural and construction equipment manufacturers with a development environment that enables them to develop their own applications or applications for the VCG-2.
