Install Guide – Remote Worker V2.0

Install Guide – Remote Worker V2.0

Device Provisioning

  1. The Remote Worker comes with a pre-installed SIM card and is provisioned on our GPS tracking platform.
  2. Each device is checked for connectivity prior to being delivered to a client site.
  3. The device is not IP67 rated, so be cautious when installing it in the engine bay or in an exposed location.
  4. The device is delivered with an Iridium satellite modem that will be plugged into the Remote Worker using the separate connector cable supplied.
  5. The device is delivered with a momentary Duress Switch that will be connected to the Remote Worker’s wiring harness.
Warning
Warning: Do not disassemble the device, If the device is damaged, the power supply cables are not isolated or the isolation is damaged, DO NOT touch the device before unplugging the power supply.

Installation Tips

  1. Standard installation is the connection of:
    1. Power
    2. Ground
    3. Ignition source
    4. Momentary Duress Switch (Green/White)
  2. This device can be mounted on the asset to be tracked using screws, bolts, cable ties or industrial adhesives.
  3. Mounting the device in a horizontal orientation with the label side facing down is recommended.
  4. Do not mount under metal objects.
  5. The device should be mounted as far away from the radio and speakers as possible.
Alert
Note: If the device is not securely mounted to the vehicle then it may trigger false accident/rollover alerts and harsh driving events.
  1. Connecting Wires:
    1. Wires should be connected while the module is not plugged in.
    2. Wires should be fastened to stable wires or non-moving parts. Any heat omitting and/or moving objects should be kept away from wires.
    3. There should be no exposed wires. If factory isolation was removed while connecting wires, the isolation material should be applied
    4. If wires are placed in the exterior or in places where they can be damaged or exposed to heat, humidity, dirt etc. additional isolation should be applied, and the wires should not be loose.
  2. Connecting Power Source:
    1. After the vehicle computer goes to sleep mode, power might be still available on the power wires. Depending on the vehicle, this may happen in 5-30 minutes period.
    2. When the module is connected, measure the voltage again to make sure it did not decrease.
    3. It is recommended to connect to the main power cable in the fuse box.
    4. 3A, 125 V external fuse to be used.
  3. Connecting Ignition Wire:
    1. Check if it is a real ignition wire i.e. power does not disappear after starting the engine.
    2. Check if this is not an ACC wire (when the key is in the first position, most of the vehicle electronics are available).
    3. Check if power is still available when you turn off any of the vehicle device.
    4. Ignition is connected to the ignition relay output. As alternative, any other relay which has power output when ignition is on, may be chosen.
  4. Connecting Ground Wire:
    1. Ground wire is connected to the vehicle frame or metal parts that are fixed to the frame.
    2. If the wire is fixed with the bolt, the loop must be connected to the end wire.
    3. For better contact scrub paint from the spot where loop is going to be connected.
  5. Connecting Iridium Modem:
    1. The device is delivered with an Iridium satellite modem that will be plugged into the Remote Worker using the provided connector cable plugged into COM Port 1.
                  
    1. There are several loose cables coming out of the connector cable. The GREY cable is for power to the Iridium modem and should be connected to the same power source as the wiring harness. The BROWN cable is for ground to the Iridium modem and should be connected to the same or similar grounding point as the wiring harness. The RED cable is for the power status of the Iridium modem which should be connected to the analogue input 1 (PIN17)(GREY) wire from the device. The BLUE cable is for the network status of the Iridium modem which should be connected to the analogue input 2 (PIN7)(BLUE/WHITE) wire from the device.
                  
                  
Warning
IMPORTANT: Please ensure that the Iridium satellite modem is mounted in a location that provides a clear unobstructed 360 degrees view of the sky in all directions. Typically, a suitable mounting location is in the middle of the vehicle dashboard or on top of an asset.
  1. Connecting Duress Switch:
    1. Connect the RED wire from the duress button to the power source.
    2. Connect the black wire to the device GREEN/WHITE wire.


Warning
Test these devices thoroughly as it is crucial that they are functioning properly.
Alert
Note: Please note the switch must be held in the on position for 3 seconds to activate.

Additional Components

Buzzer/LED Indicator

  1. Connect one terminal to a positive power source (red wire)
  2. Connect the other terminal (black wire) to the PURPLE Digital Output 1
  3. The Buzzer/LED indicator is IP67 rated, and should be installed correctly using the supplied rubber grommet.

Alert
Note: Either terminal can be used for power or ground.

Driver ID

  1. Connect driver ID reader’s RED and WHITE wires to vehicle ground source.
  2. Connect driver ID reader’s GREEN wire to Remote Worker’s GREEN wire.
  3. Connect driver ID reader’s BLACK wire to Remote Worker’s BLUE wire.
  4. Connect Remote Worker’s ORANGE/WHITE wire to buzzer’s negative pole (ORANGE/WHITE goes to the same pole with Remote Worker’s PURPLE wire)

CAN Adapter

  1. Be ready with a vehicle connection scheme that you have received from vehicle manufacturer or representative.
  2. Check the scheme for the current vehicle connection. Look for connectors matching PINs numbers and colours (may be different) according to connection scheme.
  3. Connect CAN adapter with Remote Worker:
    1. Connect CAN adapter's MINI USB to USB of Remote Worker.
  4. Connect CAN adapter CAN wires (CAN L, CAN H) as specified in connection scheme.
  5. Connect CAN adapter positive and ground wires to the vehicle power supply lines or near Remote Worker power wires.
  6. Switch vehicle ignition to ACC position. CAN adapter LED diode on the back should start blinking.
  7. Configure CAN adapter to read CAN bus data or control vehicle by setting its program number:
    1. Contact your Fleetware Sales Representative or Fleetware Support and provide the vehicle make, model and year to obtain the program number.
    2. The Fleetware Team will then set the program number remotely and confirm once completed.
Warning
Do not swap CAN L and CAN H lines. Not all CAN adapter wires may be used in vehicle.
Warning
Do not swap power supply lines. Make sure that voltage does not exceed 30V.

Alert
If you are having trouble finding the CAN line for the vehicle, please consult the vehicle manual or use the OBD-II standard as noted in the pinout diagram below.

Connecting to Other Devices

It is possible to connect the AD Plus camera to our Remote Worker (V2) solution to allow for limited information on critical events triggered on the AD Plus to be sent via the satellite Iridium network when outside of cellular coverage. This can be achieved by connecting one of the OUTPUT lines from the AD Plus (via it's optional Datahub) to an INPUT line on the Remote Worker (V2) solution, as shown in the below diagram:
