ECU Speed included in GPS stat
over 3 years ago by Tyler Freckmann
The gps.speedMilesPerHour vehicle stat endpoints will now display ECU speed if Samsara has the ability to retrieve it from the vehicle. If Samsara cannot retrieve ECU speed, the field will display GPS-calculated speed. Previously, this field displayed GPS-calculated speed even if ECU speed was available.
The ecuSpeedMph stat will only display ECU speed, and will be omitted otherwise.
If you need speed for all vehicles, you should use gps.speedMilesPerHour. If you need strictly ECU speed, you should use ecuSpeedMph. See the Diagnostic Types and Query Parameters sections of the Telematics guide for details on querying different stat types.
