False Thefts or Fillings

False Thefts or Fillings

When the tracker is cut off power, FLS sends zero values. As a result, false fuel fillings and thefts appear in reports. How to avoid that?

If FLS does not provide data for some reason, the tracker may send zeroes instead. Those zeroes will be interpreted by the program as valuable data. That is why non-existent fuel fillings and thefts may appear.

To avoid this situation, set in FLS properties X lower bound like '0.0001'. So, values lower than this will be considered as invalid and ignored in calculations. Note that X lower bound should not be higher than minimal X value from the calculation table.

As an alternative, you can use validation to solve this problem – validation type 'Not-null check'. In this case you will have to create two sensors based on the parameter of FLS.
