Encompass Configuration
J. J. Keller Mobile Settings

When you place your ELD order, you, as the company's Encompass System Administrator, will receive a
welcome email with a unique user name and password for Encompass. The link provided in the email will
take you to an Encompass setup selection screen. You can choose a simplified set up wizard if your company
is using the ELog Only edition of Encompass and if you have 25 or less drivers. If you do not meet those
criteria, you should chose the standard setup, detailed below.
As Encompass System Administrator, you have the responsibility to set and configure many company-specific
items for your J. J. Keller Mobile system within Encompass.

Some J. J. Keller Mobile settings must be

configured in Encompass prior to utilizing the system, including the setup of all KellerMobileTM users.

To adjust J. J. Keller Mobile settings, look to the J. J. Keller Mobile Settings box.

These settings are found in Setup / System Setup Home. The settings that are configurable in the section are:
 Mobile Company Settings - such as activation code, communication type, etc.
 Mobile Location Codes - Setup shortcuts for location entry by drivers when GPS is not available.
 Mobile Log Remarks - allows the admin to enable/disable system default log remarks, and/ or create
your own custom log remarks.
 Mobile User Logins - for setting drivers up, one at a time, with credentials to access the J. J. Keller
Mobile software.
 Map Landmarks - for setting up distribution centers, customers, etc. for viewing on the map.
 Mobile User Logins - Add Multiple - for setting driver up, all at once or large groups at once, with
credentials to access the J. J. Keller Mobile software.
 Mobile Device List - Displays all of the details related to the mobile devices in your fleet.

Encompass Configuration

Mobile Company Settings
The Mobile Company Settings play a critical role in tying the ELD, J. J. Keller Mobile software, and J. J. Keller's
Encompass together. Additionally, there are some controls here that can adjust the way the ELD performs.
These settings may be configured, initially, by your J. J. Keller Project Manager.
The Activation Code is setup once and is used to activate the J. J. Keller Mobile software for your company on
your drivers devices. This may be specific to each company location.
The Log Day Purge Count is how many days worth of logs will be kept on the drivers devices within the J. J. Keller
Mobile software. This does not affect how long the ELD will keep data.
The ELD Collection Rate Seconds is how often the ELD is gathering ECM data. The default is 1 second. You should
always leave this setting as is.
The Number of Days to Include in FTM Trips defaults to 1, but if your trips are typically a distinct number of days,
you may wish to configure this to that particular number of days.
The Driver Start Distance (miles) is how far the vehicle can move before J. J. Keller Mobile application indicates a
driving status (AOBRD only setting).
The Driving Start Speed is a mandate regulation whereby a "driving" event is triggered when the vehicle hits 5
miles per hour (mph). This is defaulted to "5" in Encompass to comply.
The Driver Stop Minutes is how long you want the J. J. Keller Mobile application to wait before automatically
changing the status from driving to on-duty. For example, if the driver is stopped for more than 5 minutes, you
may want the system to default to on-duty status. In that case, you would enter 5 in this field.
The Max Acceptable Speed (MPH) is the maximum speed you wish your vehicles to travel. This does not govern
the vehicles, but simply allows you to view time spent over this threshold.
The Max Acceptable Tachometer (RPM) is used for threshold exception alerts, as well as daily information, such
as time spent over this threshold. Set this to an RPM that you do not wish your vehicles to surpass.
The Hard Brake Deceleration Speed (MPH in 1 second) determines what is considered a hard brake or sudden
stop by your companys standards. The default is 7MPH in 1 second, so if a vehicle decelerates 7MPH in 1 second,
then a hard brake alert will be generated. 7MPH may be too tight for your company. For some companies,
15MPH deceleration is appropriate in 1 second.

Encompass Configuration

Multiple user functionality allowed? This setting is here to support operations where multiple users are logging
into the same device.
Mobile User Logins

Prior to setting up any mobile user logins, the driver(s) need to be added to the system under the Employees
tab of the Driver Management portal in Encompass.
The Mobile User Logins entry screen is used to add one driver login at a time. Each driver needs a username and
password to access the J. J. Keller Mobile software. To create usernames and passwords for drivers, you'll need
to choose from the employees you have already entered into the system.
When adding your drivers to the system, it is critical that a Rule Set is selected under Employee Rules, so the
system knows what rules to use when auditing logs. Additionally, a hire date is important, as that will be the day
that the system starts to expect logs. ELD users will also be required to have their license information available.
You can either enter it at the same time you're entering a new driver record or enter it when entering mobile
login information.
Once drivers are added, proceed with creating mobile user logins. These logins are ONLY for the J. J. Keller
Mobile software on the devices, and will not give that driver ANY access to J. J. Keller's Encompass.
On the mobile user login entry screen, you may view all drivers already setup, edit, and delete those drivers, as
well as change thier passwords. To add a new driver login:
1. Select Add New Login

J. J. Keller User Guide - ELD Mandate Edition for iOS

Page 8

Encompass Configuration

2. Select the Employee from the Employee drop-down.
3. Assign the driver a username and password (minimum of 4 characters)
You may also select Change Password Next Login. This will allow the driver to enter the username and password
that you have created for him/her upon their first login to the J. J. Keller Mobile software, but then they will be
prompted to change their password.
Finally, each driver account must have valid drivers license information. You can either enter the driver's license
information at the time of entering the original driver record or you can add it while setting up the mobile login.
(The system will auto-populate the information for you if you've already entered the license information.)
You should be aware, when setting up the usernames and passwords, of the type of device being used by the
driver. For example, if the driver is using a device that has letters and numbers on the same keys, you would not
assign him/her an alpha/numeric username or password. You would want to keep it as simple as possible and
utilize just a few alpha characters. If a driver is using a device with three letters per key, it is easiest to only assign
usernames and passwords that utilize the first letter on each key.
The mandate will also require you to create a login for mechanics, dock workers, etc. (anyone who moves
vehicles in the yard over 5mph). To do so, setup all your potential users under the employees tab and then select
their name on the Add User Login screen.
