For longer distances, add one of these third-party solutions (not sold by Davis Instruments):
• A standard USB extension cable. Maximum total cable length is 16.5' (5 m).
• A USB extender. Maximum distance is 150' (45 m).
• A USB device server connected to your company intranet, for virtually unlimited distances.

The Base Station for Wireless Download System connects to a computer running Fleet Management Software 3.7 or later using a USB connection. It communicates with all the Wireless On-Board Modules installed in your fleet and moves the data from the CarChip device to the FMS database. Using FMS, this operation can be performed daily for all the vehicles in your fleet, or only for selected vehicles. You can also initiate a manual download from selected vehicles or your whole fleet.
