High-TechUpdates Keep your Touch Screen Clean It is very important the touch screens are NOT cleaned with chemical cleaners as these will cause permanent damage. Only special touch screen cleaning wipes should be used to clean the screens - you can buy these at most computer stores. Frequently Asked Questions About Keypads How far is the keypad range? Drivers often bring their keypads into the workshops because they don’t work from their house or inside a building some distance from the cab. The keypad range is 10 meters – it will only work in open areas not from inside buildings or homes. Are keypads interchangeable? No – the keypad will only work with the screen that it is programmed to. There have been cases of stolen keypads and drivers trying to get them connected to their screen, so if you are leaving your vehicle either take the keypad with you or make sure the cab is securely locked.

JACQUI’s BLOG – Cover Jobs From the Main Menu select the [COVER] option – this can be done while plotted on a rank, or when you are available or engaged. The list of cover jobs are displayed in order from the closest job to you – so the further down the list you go the further away the job is from you. The screen also shows: • If there is an even or odd number in the street. • Any extra conditions required on booking – for example, ‘U’ means a capsule is required. • A small clock if the booking is required at a particular time. If you are engaged, a Cover Jobs Filter allows you to specify a single area to view cover jobs. This is helpful to look for available work in an area around where you will be dropping your passenger. To set the filter, select the [FILTER] option which appears on the Cover screen, enter the required area number and then [OK]. If you make a mistake when entering the area number, use the [CLEAR] option. Once a Cover Filter has been set, the [RESET] option can be used to clear the filter and show all available cover jobs. Apps Bookings Bookings through our apps continue to grow in popularity nearly doubling each month and we anticipate a spike in demand around the new Android App. The new App was launched in May, and has all the features of the iphone App. It can be downloaded from Android market at https:// play.google.com/store by searching for ‘icab Sydney’. Premier’s icabairport and icabprestige will also be available soon on the Android. Meantime in April and May Premier advertised its 3 iphone Apps on the backs of taxis. Downloads during the campaign showed a marked increase – in the first week alone there were 150% more than in the previous week. Virtual Risk Manager Keep the costs of your Zurich Insurance down by using the Virtual Risk Manager – an online program which allows you to assess how your drivers will react to given situations so that you can advise them on how to avoid accidents. The tool is used by many transport companies around the world and has a proven record in helping operators to reduce the accident rates of drivers. There is a very small cost per driver – please see the Insurance Department at the base for more information and a demonstration. Any Feedback?
