# Tracking Modes FleetFusion's tracking page offers three modes --- **Vehicles**, **Drivers**, and **Assets** --- so you can view your fleet from the perspective that best suits your current task. Switch between modes using the toolbar buttons at the top of the page. ## Vehicle mode Vehicle mode is the default tracking view and the one most fleet managers use day-to-day. It shows every vehicle in your organisation that has a connected telematics device. ### List panel The vehicle list displays one entry per tracked vehicle. Each entry shows: | Field | Description | | ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **VRN** | The vehicle registration number, colour-coded using the vehicle's assigned colour. | | **Speed** | Current speed (or "Parked" / "Idle" if stationary). | | **Location** | Reverse-geocoded address of the vehicle's last known position. Road numbers use UK road sign colour coding (blue for M roads, green for A roads, white for B roads). | | **Driver** | The name of the currently assigned driver, if any. | | **Alerts** | Icons indicating active alerts such as speeding, harsh events, or device issues. | ### Display styles You can change how the vehicle list is presented via **Config > Display Style**. Five options are available: | Style | Best for | | ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Standard** | Everyday use, a balanced card showing icon, VRN, speed, and location. | | **Standard Text Only** | When you want a cleaner look without vehicle icons. | | **List View** | High-density viewing, one compact row per vehicle, ideal for large fleets. | | **Detailed** | When you need extra telemetry detail at a glance (heading, ignition state, etc.). | | **Minimal** | A stripped-back view showing only VRN and basic status. | ### Map icons Vehicles appear on the map using configurable icon styles. You can customise the icon appearance and VRN label style from **Config > Customise**. * Selected vehicles are highlighted using the style chosen under **Config > Selected Vehicle Style**. * Parked vehicles can be made semi-transparent via the **Config > Parked Transparent** toggle, helping you focus on moving vehicles. ### Event counts In Vehicle mode, the **Events** tab shows all driving events recorded for the selected vehicle. Event counts in the list panel reflect all events for each vehicle. *** ## Driver mode Driver mode puts people at the centre of the tracking view. Instead of listing vehicles, the list and map focus on drivers and their current assignments. ### Who appears Only drivers who meet **both** of the following criteria are shown: 1. The driver has an **active vehicle assignment** (i.e. they are currently assigned to a vehicle). 2. The assigned vehicle has a **valid GPS position** from its telematics device. Drivers without a current vehicle assignment, or whose assigned vehicle has no recent position data, do not appear. ### List panel Each entry in the driver list shows: | Field | Description | | --------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Driver name** | The driver's full name (primary text). | | **Vehicle VRN** | The registration number of the vehicle currently assigned to the driver (secondary text). | | **Speed** | Current speed of the assigned vehicle. | | **Location** | Last known location of the assigned vehicle. | ### Map markers Drivers are represented on the map with distinctive circular avatar icons: * If the driver has an uploaded photo, their avatar image is shown inside the circle. * If no photo is available, a blue generic person icon is used. * Each marker has a **white border** and a **drop shadow** for visibility. * **Driver name labels** appear beneath each marker on the map. ### Event counts In Driver mode, event counts are scoped to the currently assigned drivers only, not the full vehicle history. ### Tab availability Most detail tabs work the same as in Vehicle mode, but tab availability depends on the assigned vehicle's hardware: * **Playback** and **Livestream** are only enabled if the driver's assigned vehicle has an active FTCloud device. * **Info**, **Trips**, **Events**, and **Videos** are available for all drivers with valid assignments. *** ## Asset mode Asset mode is designed for tracking non-vehicle assets such as trailers, plant, generators, and other equipment. It filters the view to show only records where the vehicle type is set to **Asset** in the vehicle record. ### List panel The asset list shows the same layout as the vehicle list, but only asset-type vehicles appear. ### Map icons Assets are displayed on the map using **grey container-style icons**, making them visually distinct from vehicles and drivers. ### Tab restrictions Because assets are not driven in the traditional sense, several detail tabs are disabled: | Tab | Available | | -------------- | --------- | | **Info** | Yes | | **Events** | Yes | | **Trips** | No | | **Videos** | No | | **Playback** | No | | **Livestream** | No | {% hint style="info" %} To classify a vehicle as an asset, set its **Vehicle Type** to **Asset** in the vehicle record. See [Vehicle Types](/documentation/settings/vehicle-types.md) for more information. {% endhint %} *** ## Switching modes To switch between tracking modes: 1. Ensure the toolbar is visible (enable it via **Config > Show Toolbar** if hidden). 2. Click **Vehicles**, **Drivers**, or **Assets** on the toolbar. 3. The list panel and map update immediately to reflect the selected mode. The mode selection persists during your session. If you navigate away from the tracking page and return, the last selected mode is restored. {% hint style="info" %} The **Keep In View** toggle works in all three modes. When enabled, the map automatically re-centres on the selected entity if it moves off-screen. {% endhint %} ## Related articles * [Tracking](/documentation/fleet-operations/tracking.md) * [Vehicles](/documentation/core-modules/vehicles.md) * [Drivers](/documentation/core-modules/drivers.md) * [Vehicle Types](/documentation/settings/vehicle-types.md) * [Device Hub](/documentation/settings/device-hub.md) --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
