San Dimas, CA – March 23, 2017 - Magellan®, a leader in GPS navigation, announced today they will be demoing solutions to help truck carriers leverage optimal performance and efficiencies at the Truck Carriers Association (TCA) Annual Convention, in Nashville, Tennessee, March 26-29, 2017. 

During the show, Magellan will be showing attendees how the commercial-grade RC9668 Navigation device and their FMCSA-Certified ELD-Compliant Hours of Service (HOS) solutions are purpose-built for long and short-haul trucking. Magellan Fleet Navigation software delivers customizable, precision GPS routing optimized for trucking routes, from the urban canyon to open sky roads.

“We’re really looking forward to meeting the carriers at TCA and showing them how we can better optimize their navigation, as well as help simplify upcoming compliance issues such as hours of service and the ELD mandates,” said Mark Perini, vice president of Magellan’s automotive and fleet business.

The trucking solutions being demonstrated in Nashville include:

• RC9668 Fleet Navigator – Magellan’s 7”, IP67 ruggedized navigation device for trucks. The fleet software uses truck-specific map data from HERE, combined with Magellan’s industry-leading routing engine, to provide a robust navigation experience to all truck carriers.

• HOS Compliance – A FMCSA certified, ELD-compliant Hour of Service (HOS) solution integrated with Magellan Navigators.  Automated logging tools, reports, and alerts keep your drivers on time, and in compliance.

• Return to Route – A multi-stop route planning solution that offers enhanced navigation and supports a broad range of telematics supplier protocols. Return to Route is optimized for Urban Canyon and associated metro challenges to ensure truck carriers never miss an important stop.
