number you entered in Step 2.

If the connection fails, verify the vehicle gateway is powered on and that the correct device serial number was
entered.

17

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE

Step 4. The rst time your PeopleNet Display.5 connects to the vehicle gateway, the PeopleNet Display.5 will gather

necessary communication information from the vehicle gateway. The PeopleNet Display.5 will reboot once the
information is received from the vehicle gateway.

Tap OK or let the timer expire.

The PeopleNet Display.5 will reboot and utilize the new settings.

18

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE

Step 5. Re-enter the device serial number of your vehicle gateway.

NO- This is an existing installation where the vehicle gateway has been previously paired with a display.

22

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE

Step 9. If YES was selected.

Type your Installer ID.

This Installer ID will not be the same as the installation credentials, and only digits are allowed in this
eld. If you do not have an Installer ID, type a number that will dierentiate you from other installers
in your eet (the Installer ID used at this screen is recorded in the PeopleNet Fleet Manager; it has
no impact on your ability to complete an install).

Type the Vehicle ID that will be used as a unique identier in the PeopleNet Fleet Manager.

Tap Submit.

23

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE

Step 9. If NO was selected.

ERROR CODE POSSIBILITIES

Yes, this is a new installation was selected - verify that
the vehicle ID you’re trying to use is not already in use, and
you should have selected “no, this is not a new installation”.

No, this is not a new installation - verify that the vehicle
number used does already exist, and the correct device
serial number was entered into the Old DSN eld.

26

INITIALIZATION PROCEDURE

Step 12. Activating Device will be displayed when the information has been entered correctly and settings are being

downloaded from the PeopleNet Fleet Manager.

When all the settings have been downloaded from the PeopleNet Fleet Manager, the words Activating will change
