The tacho-bridge protocol connects company cards to flespi, so that trackers can authenticate with the tachograph remotely and download driver card and tachograph memory files. Downloaded files are stored in the device media.
The company cards stay in smart card readers or card racks on your computer, where the Tacho Bridge Application connects them to this channel.
How to set it up:
1. Create a channel with the tacho-bridge protocol.
2. Install the Tacho Bridge Application and enter the channel address in its Server address field.
3. Create a device with the Tacho Bridge App type, using the App ident from the application as its ident.
4. Link each company card in the application to its number, written on the card.
5. Create a device with the Tacho Bridge Card type for each card, using the card number as its ident.
6. Enter the company card number in the configuration of the tracker's device.
7. Download files with the Request tachograph file command or the Automatic file request option. Some trackers start the upload by themselves.
To restrict who can connect, fill in the Application authentication section of the channel configuration and enter the same username and password in the application settings.
See the Tacho integration guide for the details and the Tacho Bridge App guide for the application and card racks.
