Crash Detection

If Crash Detection is enabled, it monitors acceleration on each axis which helps to detect an accident. Threshold and Duration values are set depending on the impact magnitude that is required to be detected. {{{model}}} can detect events ranging between a slight tapping on the device and a severe accident. If Crash Trace is disabled only one eventual crash record will be generated when Duration (ms) and Threshold (mg) values are exceeded. If Crash Trace is enabled, {{{model}}} will collect crash trace data with frequency defined by Trace ODR (Hz) parameter. Acceleration, GNSS and IO data monitoring duration during the crash event is defined by these parameters:

• Accel duration (s). Acceleration data duration can be set for up to 15 seconds before crash event and 15 seconds after;
• GNSS duration (s). GNSS data duration can be set for up to 30 seconds before crash event and 30 seconds after.
• IO duration (s). IO data duration can be set for up to 30 seconds before crash event and 30 seconds after.

There are three configurable Crash Trace modes: Disabled

• No crash trace is provided

Trace Changes

• Device will collect acceleration data for the configured period. When acceleration values are changed by more then 50mG data will be collected and records generated. If Acceleration does not change, records will be saved with 1 second period.

Trace Full

• Data tracked: Buffer size is calculated by the below provided formula. Trace Full mode will trace everything for the configured trace duration period, regardless if axes changed more than > 50 mG or not.

SampleFrequency (100 Hz) * TraceDuration (5 s before + 5 s after) For example, if frequency is configured at 100 Hz, and the duration is set to 5 sec, the buffer will be created for 1000 entries, each containing X Y Z values. This buffer will be split into records (same crash record will have same crash counter, so to have full trace user must append accelerometer data that has same crash counter) Note: With Crash Trace mode enabled, it is recommended to use Codec 8 Extended Data Protocol. This helps to optimize crash trace data sending from device to server. Crash Counter Crash Eventual record and Trace records can have a new IO element „Crash Counter“ (AVL ID 317). In addition to „Crash Counter“, „Crash Trace“ must also be enabled in order for the functionality to work. Crash Counter connects the eventual crash record with its trace packets meaning each eventual crash record will have ID 317, as well as that crash‘s trace packets with the same value. When enabled, first crash will send eventual record with value 1. Subsequent crashes will add 1 to value overflowing at 255 and starting again from 0. Ground Vector Ground vector must be removed from the magnitude used in the crash evaluation. Ground vector is calculated when AXL calibration is present, otherwise, it is not removed. Magnitude is recalculated when the device has no calibration. For that, it is supposed, that the required acceleration is on the XY plane. Then angle between the Z axis and the XY plane is 90 deg, therefore Pythagorean theorem can be used. If the magnitude is less than 1 G, the result cannot be evaluated and is set to 0.

Each record will have accurate timestamps in milliseconds.

Conditions for the fake crash detection:

• Device must have a GPS fix.
• Max crash axis is X or Y.
• Speed must be more than 0.
• Crash second speed value must be more than 0. Subsequent second GPS speed value must be greater than crash speed value minus threshold. Subsequent (2nd second) second GPS speed value must be greater than crash speed value minus threshold times two.

Example: if GNSS duration is set to 6 s and Accel duration is set to 5 s, there will be two records that will not contain accelerometer data. Crash records always contain accelerometer data for the duration of the Accel duration setting, regardless of I/O settings.

AVL IDs

PARAMETER NAME	PARAMETER ID (RELATED AVL ID)	DESCRIPTION	VALUES
Scenario Settings	111400 (247)	Sets the scenario priority level.	0 = Disable Disable scenario. 1 = Low priority Device makes an additional record with indication of event cause. 2 = High priority Device makes an additional record with high priority flag and immediately sends an event packet to the server by GPRS. 3 = Panic priority Triggers the same actions as high priority, but if GPRS fails, the device sends an AVL packet via SMS (if enabled in SMS settings).
Duration (ms)	11401	Sets the minimal time period for how long the acceleration value should be higher than "Threshold" to trigger the event.	Minimum value = 0 Maximum value = 1000
Threshold (mG)	11402	Sets the acceleration threshold value to detect the event.	Minimum value = 100 Maximum value = 6000
Threshold (16 g) (mG)	11416	Acceleration threshold (applicable for devices with max 16 g range accelerometer)	Minimum value = 100 Maximum value = 14000
Send SMS to	7037	Sets the GSM number of SMS event recipient.	Number selected from “GSM Predefined Numbers” list in menu “SMS / Call Settings”.
SMS Text	8037	Toggle filtering of accelerometer data in the crash trace. IF enabled, data is passed through EMA filter with 0.4 beta value (can be changed through serial command).	Maximum text length = 160 symbols
Trace Filter	11412	Toggle filtering of accelerometer data in the crash trace. IF enabled, data is passed through EMA filter with 0.4 beta value (can be changed through serial command).	0 = Disable 1 = Enable
Crash Trace	11406 (257)	Enable tracing of crash events to get additional data about the crash. Related parameters: "Trace ODR", "Accel duration", "GNSS duration".	0 = Disable Generates only an eventual crash record. 1 = Trace Changes Records timestamps, GNSS data and acceleration values ONLY WHEN acceleration values change my 50 mG or more (saves mobile data). 2 = Trace Full Records timestamps, GNSS data and acceleration values. 3 = Trace Full with IOs Records timestamps, GNSS data and acceleration values, together with IO elements configured as "Crash" (see "I/O" menu).
Crash Counter	11415 (317)	Toggle crash counter. This allows relating the eventual record of a particular crash with its trace packets by adding IO ID 317 to both. “Crash Counter“ and “Crash Trace“ must be enabled. The first crash will send an eventual record with IO ID 317 value 1. Subsequent crashes will add 1 to the value, overflowing at 255 and starting again from 0.	0 = Disable 1 = Enable
Trace ODR (Hz)	11410	Sets the output data rate (frequency) of crash event data recording.	Minimum value = 20 Maximum value = 200/400 Depends on hardware modification.
