Geotab 6100 GEN5 Installation guide

  • Hello! I'm a chat assistant that has analyzed the Field Services Installer Documentation for the Geotab Telematics Controller GEN5 6100 and IO Expander IOX-WRKS. This document provides instructions for integrating these devices, configuring settings such as event logging and SIM speed, and ensuring proper winter input mapping for telemetries. I'm ready to answer any questions you have about the document or the devices described within.
  • What type of cable is required for connecting FA6100 to IOX-WRKS primary port?
    What settings need to be configured for event logging?
    What should be set for SIM speed during integration verification?
    What does 'winter input mapping' refer to?
    What should be done after configuring the settings?
