How do I mount the GV600 asset tracker?
The mounting of the device partly depends on the type of powered asset.
For Flatbeds:
- The device can be mounted inside the forward frame rail or under the trailer roof.
- Find the appropriate mounting location in the frame rail or under the trailer floor with proper wire routing access that will allow the GV600 device for adequate signal reception.
- Use the two self-drilling screws to mount the device to the flatbed wood floor.
For Chassis:
- The device can be mounted inside a forward frame rail with the harness side facing the trailer harness.
- Find a mounting location under a gusset on the driver's side frame rail with proper wire routing access that will allow the GV600 device for adequate signal reception.
- Make sure the harness side of the device is towards the trailer harness.
Points to Remember:
- Don't install the device near any moving parts or areas prone to be hit by road debris or high-pressure water spray.
- Don't install the device close to any heat-radiating pieces of machinery.
- The device's omnidirectional antennas allow the device to be mounted in various directions (facing up or sideways, facing out).
- There can be a limitation in the wiring connection observed if the device is mounted under the floor, especially if it is an enclosed metal trailer or container.
Note: Azuga recommends the asset tracker installation be done by a professional installer.
