How to Install UTTS?
The National Vehicle Identification System (UTTS) is an important technology that facilitates fuel purchases and increases safety, especially for businesses with large fleets. UTTS installation with Fikret Petrol is both a professional and simple process. Below, we explain how UTTS installation is done step by step.
Why Should UTTS Installation Be Done?
Before moving on to the installation details, it is important to understand why UTTS installation is beneficial:
- Automatic Fuel Pick-ups: UTTS enables automatic recognition of vehicles at fuel stations, meaning fast and error-free transactions.
- Increased Security: Every fuel transaction is tracked, preventing unauthorized purchases.
- Better Management: Businesses can monitor fuel consumption more effectively and make more informed decisions in budgeting and resource allocation processes.
Initial Assessment
Before the assembly process begins, a Fikret Petrol expert evaluates the fleet and determines the specific needs of the vehicles. This assessment includes:
- Checking vehicle types and fuel requirements.
- Determining how many vehicles should be equipped with UTTS devices.
- Determining the most appropriate location of UTTS tags or devices for each vehicle.
This evaluation helps ensure that each vehicle is installed in the best way possible to ensure it works seamlessly with the system.
Preparation of UTTS Required Equipment
Once the assessment is complete, the required UTTS devices or tags are prepared. These devices include:
- RFID Tags or Transmitters: Installed on vehicles and provide automatic identification at fuel stations.
- Control Units: Depending on the type of fleet, additional control units can be installed to ensure integration between the vehicle and the UTTS system.
- All devices are tested for functionality prior to installation.
Installation of UTTS Devices in Vehicles
The next step is to mount the UTTS devices directly onto the vehicles. This process involves:
- Installing RFID Tags or Transmitters: These tags are usually securely placed near the fuel tank or windshield.
- Connecting Control Units (if required): Some fleets require additional control units to provide connectivity between the vehicle's systems and the UTTS network.
- Our technicians ensure that devices are installed safely and without damaging vehicles.
UTTS System Integration and Testing
Once the devices are installed, our team tests the system. These tests include:
- Testing Identification at Fuel Stations: The vehicle's tag or transmitter is checked to see if it is correctly recognized at participating fuel stations.
- Communication Check with UTTS: Ensure that the control unit (if installed) is properly communicating between the vehicle and the UTTS system.
At this stage, the necessary adjustments are made and it is confirmed that the system is fully operational.
Providing UTTS Training and Support
After installation, Fikret Petrol provides training to ensure your drivers and fleet managers understand how to use the system. This training covers:
- Using UTTS at Fuel Stations: Explains what drivers should expect when they approach the station and how the automated process works.
- Monitoring and Reporting: Fleet managers are taught how to use the system's reporting features to monitor fuel consumption, track transactions, and manage costs.
In addition to training, we also offer ongoing support in case of any technical issues or updates required.
UTTS Regular Maintenance and Updates
Although the UTTS system requires little maintenance, it is important to ensure that the devices are working properly. Fikret Petrol offers periodic checks to:
- Ensures that devices are working properly.
- Ensures compatibility with fuel stations and network developments by performing system updates.
- Regular maintenance ensures uninterrupted performance in your fleet's fuel management process.
