Installation instructions

Step:1.
Install the device on the container door, the thickest part on the inside, as high as possible (ideally higher than the red mark sometimes present inside the container). Choose the door without the seal on the side (normally on the left).

Step: 2.
The device will be held by the magnet, which will also detect the tracker’s placement and activate it.

Step: 3.
You can then close the opposite door, which seal will complete the tracker’s installation by maintaining it safely in place.

Pairing instructions

To pair a device in position on the container to a shipment in the N4VIEW tracking platform, please follow the following instructions.
