a. The LED will flash Blue, indicating the device is now turned on.
b. Take down the serial number of the device (if you haven’t assigned the device yet).
2. Connect the 3 wires of the Motive cable to an external power, ground, and ignition wire. (Please do not remove the black plastic housing attached to the wire = voltage regulator). The wire can be shortened up to that point.

Checking if Asset Gateway Mini Install is Successful
1. On the asset live page, if the Asset Gateway Mini has gotten a GPS fix, the asset’s location will show up on the screen.
2. If you see this screen, it means that the Asset Gateway Mini has been assigned, but is still looking for a valid GPS location.
3. If the Asset Gateway Mini is cable-powered, you can turn on the asset’s engine, and if it’s indoors, bring the asset outdoors so that the Asset Gateway can get a clear line of sight for a GPS fix. Wait for another 15-30 minutes, and you should be seeing the GPS location show up on your dashboard.
