What can TX-FLEX provide?

TX-FLEX is a mobile add-on for the SCALAR EVO Touch and the TX-GO 2 OBC. It is a driver app, running on an Android device. TX-FLEX facilitates all driver activities outside the truck cabin: barcode scanning, picture transfer, digital signatures, pallet information and problem reporting. Combined with TX-GO 2, TX-FLEX enables efficient planning follow-up. Data are synchronized via Bluetooth with SCALAR EVO Touch or TX-GO 2 and sent to the TX-CONNECT back office platform for further processing.

Why use TX-FLEX

TX-FLEX combines the advantages of a fixed solution with the flexibility of a mobile device. On the one hand, the on-board computer is a gateway of corporate-secure info such as tachograph data, driver activities, fuel consumption data … On the other, TX-FLEX allows the driver to be more flexible and supports him in completing his planning and specific out-of-cabin activities.
  • Easy-to-use driver app
  • Planning follow-up
  • Registration of out-of-cabin activities
  • Synchronized flow of vehicle and driver info
  • Driver management supporting their everyday routine

How to use TX-FLEX

A driver logs on to TX-FLEX via a QR code on the SCALAR EVO Touch or TX-GO 2 on-board computer. As from that moment, both are paired via Bluetooth.
SCALAR EVO Touch
SCALAR EVO Touch steers the driver to his destinations and guides him through the planning. As soon as the driver leaves the truck cabin to finalize his order at location, TX-FLEX takes over. All app entries are synchronized with the on-board computer and can be double-checked with the home base. Meanwhile, TX-FLEX permanently informs the driver on his driving style and remaining driving and resting times.​
Pallet handling​
Indicate the number of pallets loaded or unloaded and select the specific pallet type. The info in this module is defined by the app instruction set.​
Picture transfer​
Inform in real time of the status of the cargo by adding product pictures and comments to the order info, in case of accidents, damaged goods … Pictures can also be taken independent of planning tasks.​
Barcode scanning​
Scan the products predefined in the planning or scan new items, so that their barcode is automatically added to the order in a structured way.​
Problem reporting​

TX-ECO Assistant​

TX-GO 2​

While TX-GO 2 allows dispatchers to follow up trucks and drivers in real time, TX-FLEX acts as a driver interface for efficient communication between the driver and the back office. Serving as a mobile extension of TX-GO 2, TX-FLEX helps the driver to view & execute his planning and perform out-of-cabin activities like barcode & document scan, picture & document transfer, digital signatures, etc. Moreover, TX-FLEX also informs the diver on his driving style and remaining driving & resting times. The data are synchronized via Bluetooth with TX-GO 2 and sent to the TX-CONNECT back office platform for further processing from TX-GO 2 or also optionally from TX-FLEX.​
Planning follow-up​
Forward your orders to the driver to have them completed on his mobile device adding driver comments and planning-related problems.​
