Settings
The Settings page allows users to customize preferences that affect how data is displayed throughout the Truvami Dashboard.
These options influence only the individual user’s interface and do not modify device behavior or global application settings.
Default Time Format
The Default time format option lets users choose how timestamps appear across the dashboard, including:
- positions
- uplinks
- events
- device details
- timeline entries
Selecting a preferred format ensures consistency when viewing or exporting data.
Available Time Formats
The dropdown list includes multiple international and region-specific formats, such as:
21.09.2023 13:2921.09.2023 13:29:002023-09-21 13:292023-09-21 13:29:0009/21/2023 1:29 PMSep 21, 2023 1:29 PMSep 21, 2023 13:29
Choosing one updates all timestamps instantly across the interface.
Position Sources
This section allows users to enable or disable specific location sources.
Changing these settings affects which types of position fixes are displayed, but does not disable device-side positioning features.
Disabling some sources may reduce the number of available positions or lower accuracy.
Available Position Sources
GNSS (Active) – Enabled
Uses an onboard amplifier to improve signal strength and positioning accuracy.
Best for:
- outdoor environments
- applications requiring high-precision GNSS
GNSS (Passive) – Enabled
Relies directly on satellite signals without amplification.
Suitable for short-range or power-sensitive applications.
WiFi – Enabled
Provides location based on Wi-Fi access point scans.
Less accurate than GNSS but useful in indoor environments or urban areas.
LoRa – Disabled (by default)
Uses LoRaWAN gateway triangulation.
Accuracy may vary significantly depending on gateway positions and density.
When enabled, LoRa-based positions become visible in:
- timelines
- maps
- positions tables
- device history
Notes
- All settings on this page are user-specific preferences.
- Device-generated positions remain unchanged; only visibility and display format are affected.
- Changes take effect immediately and persist across sessions.
