Galileosky 10 · use case

Long-haul & heavy transport

Dual CAN on the vehicle and trailer bus. J1939 readout of 13,000+ engine and brake parameters.

The challenge

Long-haul fleets live on the bus. The dot on the map matters; the engine, fuel, axle load, brake-system, and PTO data behind it matters more. Single-CAN trackers force a choice between vehicle and trailer telemetry. Two buses means no choice.

What Galileosky brings

Why this hardware wins this case.

Two simultaneous CAN buses — vehicle and trailer/PTO at the same time without a multiplexer.

J1939, FMS, and OBD II protocols cover every modern commercial vehicle on SA roads.

CAN Scanner auto-discovers up to 13,000 vehicle parameters across major OEMs.

On-device storage (4 GB eMMC on 10 Hub, SD card slot on the base 10) — multi-day out-of-coverage routes don't lose data.

Easy Logic runs custom alert rules on the device: harsh braking, idling thresholds, geo-zone events.

Scenarios

How GotYou deploys this in the field.

Coal corridor side-tippers

Lephalale → Richards Bay return runs of 1,200+ km. Vehicle CAN tracks engine and fuel; trailer CAN tracks axle weight and tipper position. Easy Logic flags overload events before they reach the weigh-bridge.

Refrigerated long-haul

Vehicle CAN for engine; secondary CAN for reefer telemetry. Out-of-coverage stretches into Botswana and Zambia replay millions of points on return.

Heavy combination vehicles

Interlinks and superlinks need bus-level visibility on both prime mover and trailer brake system. Dual CAN delivers it on a single device.

Outcomes

What it changes for the operator.

  • Lower fuel burn — fuel-from-CAN, not from a float sensor — drives accurate driver coaching.
  • Trailer-side data without a second tracker — capex saved per truck.
  • Insurance discounts on accurate harsh-event data captured at source.
  • Maintenance windows planned from real engine hours, not odometer estimates.
FAQ

Common questions on this case.

No. The Galileosky 10 and 10 Hub carry two CAN buses on one device. Vehicle bus and trailer/PTO bus can be read simultaneously.
