Track Star AVLS on iPod Touch
& iPhone Application Note
For users of the Track Star AVLS system who have expressed a desire for a mobile environment
in which to use the AVLS Client application, the following information is provided to access the Client on either an Apple iPod® Touch or Apple iPhone® device.
The use of the AVLS Client is made possible by using an remote access software product that is
available for the iPod® Touch and the iPhone® called Log Me In. The Log Me In “Ignition” product
is installed on the iPod® Touch or the iPhone® and the Log Me In desktop application is installed
on the desktop computer that will run the Track Star AVLS Client application.
Once the Log Me In system is installed and configured on the device and on the desktop computer, configure the mobile device for connectivity. On the iPhone® connectivity will come from
AT&T Wireless while on the iPod® Touch connectivity will be via 802.11 WiFi.
With the iPhone®, use of the Track Star AVLS Client will be possible whenever and wherever data
connectivity is available from AT&T. The iPod® Touch will be able to access the Track Star AVLS
Client whenever it is connected to a WiFi hotspot.
To use the Client, it is necessary that the desktop computer be on and that the agent for Log Me In
be running. Start the Log Me In “Ignition” application on the mobile device and log on to the desktop computer. If Track Star AVLS is already running on that computer, you can access it directly
from the mobile device. If AVLS is not running, use “Ignition” to start the program and log in to the
AVLS system.
Once the AVLS screen appears on the mobile device you can use standard command functions on
the iPod® Touch or iPhone® to manipulate the screen display. You are able to use the Track Star
AVLS software from the mobile device in this manner the same way that you would use it if you
were operating the desktop computer and all of the power and functionality of the Track Star AVLS
system is available to you on the mobile device. Live vehicle position updates, notifications and all
other functions are fully available.
Track Star does not impose any additional licensure to use the system in this manner. It is not
necessary to purchase additional Client licenses or implement any additional functions in the Track
Star system for this deployment model to be implemented.
Please contact Technical Support at Track Star should you need assistance in implementing this
capability.
