Installation of BLE Sensors
BLE sensors are used to track equipment location, utilization, and movement when paired with a compatible gateway or telematics device. Proper installation ensures accurate data transmission and long-term durability. Please see the instructions below.
Step 1: Select the Mounting Location
Choose a location that:
- Is secure and protected from impact
- Has a clear line of sight to nearby gateways or vehicles
- Is consistent across similar equipment types (for easier audits)
Step 2: Prepare the Surface
- Clean the mounting surface with isopropyl alcohol
- Allow the surface to fully dry
- Ensure the surface is free of dust, oil, and debris
Step 3: Mount the BLE Sensor
- Remove the adhesive backing from the two sided tape
- Firmly apply one side of the tape to the sensor and press the sensor onto the surface
- Hold pressure for 15–30 seconds
Step 4: Activate & Verify
- Confirm the sensor is active (platform confirmation)
- Assign the sensor to the correct equipment in the platform
- Verify:
- Sensor is reporting
- Equipment name/ID is correct
- Signal strength is acceptable
