The Buses page is found on the main page of the dashboard in the Fleet Management section. It shows you a list of all the buses in your school system. You can sort by name, number, status (whether the bus is moving, stopped, or offline), the last time the attendant on the bus connected to our system, the route currently being run, and which driver is on the bus now.
Live Video
If instead of video you see "Bus is parked at a location where video recording is turned off",
see here to turn video on.
Edit Buses
Buses are added by Transportant while installing the hardware, or at any time at your request. Once a bus appears on the Buses page, you can edit its information. To do that, select the desired bus, then make changes as desired. Some commonly performed actions are:
- Rename a Bus
- View or edit student Wi-Fi settings
