JDLink Dashboard helps customers understand, manage equipment
JDLink Dashboard, a new telematics interface enabling customers to better optimize their machines, uptime and jobsites, provides intuitive, easy-to-use tools for contractors to manage their John Deere equipment that have active JDLink Ultimate, Express or Locate subscriptions. Utilizing the JDLink Dashboard, John Deere customers will see the most important metrics upfront, in a visually compelling manner, the company says. These metrics include red alerts, machines with zero hours, machines with the highest idle, and machines that are being over or underutilized. One of the most exciting features of the JDLink Dashboard is a new equipment maintenance management tool called Maintenance Manager, according to John Deere. This tool allows users to quickly and easily set up factory or custom plans using either engine-hour or calendar-based service intervals. Maintenance Manager makes tracking maintenance significantly more convenient for equipment managers. Also, customers can access the JDLink Dashboard using Web browsers, tablets and smartphones.
