      Tracker activation
      Activation of the tracker is preferably done with clear skies, and not inside (e.g. factory or warehouse).
      Trackers are not activated when delivered to your premises.
      Their subscription in the platform will start within six months of purchase.
      1
      Hold a magnet for
      about 5 seconds on
      top of the logo on the
      tracker.
      →
      2
      You will first see a red
      LED. Do not remove
      the magnet yet.
      →
      3
      When the green LED
      is blinking you can
      remove the magnet.
      The tracker is ready
      for use.
      Activation troubleshooting
      Activating a tracker that communicates over the NB-IoT network can sometimes come with a delay. With a delay we mean
      that the online status doesn\&#39;t appear within 5 minutes after holding the magnet to the tracker. This is mostly due to conditions
      on the network operator site.
      If the activation wasn\&#39;t successful after 5 minutes the tracker will try again to activate again after waiting 24 hours.
      This long period of time is often an obstacle to start installing trackers to assets and makes the timing of the installation of the
      trackers cumbersome as it is important to only install trackers when they appeared as online on the platform.
      To overcome the 24 hours waiting time, you can do the following:
      If after 5 minutes of waiting and the status didn\&#39;t change yet to "online" hold the magnet again for 5 seconds on top of the
      tracker to enforce a new attempt for activation. Keep trying every 5 minutes until the Online status appears.
      General installation advice
      If your asset is handled in
      a rough environment, you
      can place the tracker in a
      protected location, but
      never with metal or
      carbonfibre above the
      tracker.
      Place the tracker as high
      as possible on the asset to
      ensure good network
      coverage.
      Make sure the mounting
      surface is flat and clean,
      for a strong and durable
      bond.
      Do not install the tracker
      on parts that receive
      frequent shocks or
      vibrations.
      Avoid placing the tracker
      in a place that can collect
      water.

      Preparing the installation in the vehicle
      Tools and equipment
      Enough 2 wire cable
      Steel fish tape
      Cable duct
      Male and female spade
      connectors
      Fork connectors
      Cable protector
      Wire cutter
      Screwdriver
      Double sided tape
      Wrench set
      Stanley knife
      Electrical fuse (> 500mA
      and \< 1A)
      Before the actual wiring

      1. The tracker should be mounted in the middle of the truck or van.
      2. Detect the best possible path from the vehicle\&#39;s power source to the place of tracker installation. Estimate the amount
         of wire needed to cover the complete path.
      3. Make sure the 2 wire cable can pass everywhere, use the steel fish tape to test.

      Installing the tracker
      Wiring the truck

      1. Route the cable: Use the steel fish tape to pull the wire through the available shafts of the truck. Preferably work from
         the ground up. This might take a while, take your time. Make sure not to damage the cable.
      2. Prepare the cable length: Make sure there is enough 2 wired cable to go to the vehicle\&#39;s power source. Do not connect
         anything to the power source yet.
      3. Protect the cable: Protect the 2 cable wire where needed:
         • Use cable duct and double sided tape for the inside of the van or truck.
         • Use cable protector for the outside of the van or truck.
         Cable duct inside the van or truck
         Cable protector outside the truck
      4. Install the fuse: An additional fuse (> 500mA and \< 1A) can be installed. Install the fuse on the voltage in red cable in
         series. The tracker has an internal fuse, see specsheet for details.

      The external cable is composed of 4 internal wires:
      • Black: GND / Ground. Connect to black battery terminal (negative, minus sign).
      • Red: VIN External voltage in. Connect to red battery terminal (positive, plus sign).
      • Blue: Digital In / Analog In (not in use currently; pending a future firmware release).
      • White: Digital Out (not in use currently; pending a future firmware release).

      1. Install connectors on the vehicle wiring: Install the female spade connectors on the installed wires on the inside of the
         truck.
      2. Install connectors near the power source: Install the fork connectors to the end of the 2 wired cable near the power
         source. Do not attach to the battery yet.
      3. Install connectors on the tracker cable: Install the male spade connectors on the tracker cable.
         Mounting the tracker
         Guidelines how to mount the tracker can be found here.
         Mount the tracker in such a way that you have good access and a good view to the power plug of the tracker.
         Wrong: No view on tracker plug
         Correct: Good view on tracker plug
         Power the tracker
         Attach the fork connectors to the vehicle\&#39;s battery. The tracker is now powered.

      Tracker activation
      Activation of the tracker is preferably done with clear skies, and not inside (e.g. factory or warehouse).
      Trackers are not activated when delivered to your premises.
      Their subscription in the platform will start within six months of purchase.
      1
      Hold a magnet for
      about 5 seconds on
      top of the logo on the
      tracker.
      →
      2
      You will first see a red
      LED. Do not remove
      the magnet yet.
      →
      3
      When the green LED
      is blinking you can
      remove the magnet.
      The tracker is ready
      for use.
      Activation troubleshooting
      Activating a tracker that communicates over the NB-IoT network can sometimes come with a delay. With a delay we mean
      that the online status doesn\&#39;t appear within 5 minutes after holding the magnet to the tracker. This is mostly due to conditions
      on the network operator site.
      If the activation wasn\&#39;t successful after 5 minutes the tracker will try again to activate again after waiting 24 hours.
      This long period of time is often an obstacle to start installing trackers to assets and makes the timing of the installation of the
      trackers cumbersome as it is important to only install trackers when they appeared as online on the platform.
      To overcome the 24 hours waiting time, you can do the following:
      If after 5 minutes of waiting and the status didn\&#39;t change yet to "online" hold the magnet again for 5 seconds on top of the
      tracker to enforce a new attempt for activation. Keep trying every 5 minutes until the Online status appears.
      General installation advice
      If your asset is handled in
      a rough environment, you
      can place the tracker in a
      protected location, but
      never with metal or
      carbonfibre above the
      tracker.
      Place the tracker as high
      as possible on the asset to
      ensure good network
      coverage.
      Make sure the mounting
      surface is flat and clean,
      for a strong and durable
      bond.
      Do not install the tracker
      on parts that receive
      frequent shocks or
      vibrations.
      Avoid placing the tracker
      in a place that can collect
      water.
