To streamline day-to-day activities, fleet managers need to be in constant touch with their field workforce—they need to send and receive messages; plan, schedule and delegate tasks; obtain duty status; and communicate directions and other information.

With the Trimble iDT 3000, managing these tasks need not be tedious, expensive or time consuming. The Trimble iDT 3000 is an in-vehicle messaging device, used together with Trimble GeoManager SM iLM® fleet tracking software. The iDT (Internet Data Terminal™) works to send free form messages or with the GeoManager Messaging and Forms optional feature to provide two-way communication between mobile workers and their dispatchers and managers.


  • Choose from up to 30 predefined text messages
  • Add up to 20 characters to any predefined message
  • Assign two frequently used messages to two specially designated soft keys (SPCL 1 & SPCL 2)
  • Store up to 20 inbound and 40 outbound messages
  • Choose from 10 user-defined forms with 10 fields each
  • Automatically chart duty status and Hours of Service graphs, using the Driver Logs optional feature
  • Create messages even when outside wireless coverage areas—the iLM will store messages in memory queue and automatically send when coverage is available
  • Receive instant confirmation of package delivery using form-fill capabilities and optional barcode wand

  • Provides instant and seamless communication between dispatchers and mobile workers
  • Enables streamlining of work flow and job status
  • Automates processes and reduces paperwork

  • Send messages to one, multiple or all drivers
