Environmental Sensors are not displaying telematics data, and the LED has flashed solid blue
If the LED on the sensor has flashed solid blue, it indicates that the Environmental Sensor has connected to the Asset Gateway. However, if the Environmental Sensor has stopped displaying telematics data, follow the steps below to troubleshoot:
- Press and hold the pinhole button for 8 seconds, then release. This will put the device back in it's initial configuration.
- Press the pinhole button for 1 second, then release. This will put the device back in connection mode.
- The LED will start blinking blue for 20 seconds. This will reboot your sensors and maintain the connection to your asset gateway.
- After 10 minutes, press the button again, and if the LED shows solid blue, then the connection has been re-established.
- If the telematics data is still not showing up, please contact support or chat with us.
