RTL LINX1 User Manual v4.0 Introduction The RTL LINX1 vehicle telematics unit is the In Vehicle Hardware (IVH) part of the RTL Telematics Platform. The RTL Telematics Platform Data Flow is described below:
The data is collected by the IVH from the External Inputs. The data is stored and processed by IVH until the Mobile Network becomes The data is then send via Mobile Network and the Internet to the Host Platform The data becomes available in form of the reports to the authorised users connected available. Database Server. to the DataBase via the WebSite using Internet connection and standard browser. The RTL Telematics Platform System Diagram is below:
