12. Motive recommends installing the Vehicle Gateway near the windshield, as well as away from any vents, electrical components and at least 12 inches away from any metal components.

13. The Vehicle Gateway may be installed in alternative locations, such as the wheel well, provided it meets the aforementioned requirements. Please ensure all cabling and devices are secured to avoid interfering with safe operation of the vehicle

14. Step 4
    Once plugged in, the indicator lights will flash momentarily before turning solid red. After approximately one minute, the left-side indicator light will turn green indicating a successful GPS/ GNSS connection.
    Additionally, GPS/GNSS performance may degrade if the vehicle gateway does not have clear line of sight to the sky.

15. Step 5
    Once the driver connects to the Vehicle Gateway using the Motive Electronic Logbook App available on iOS and Android, the right-side indicator light will turn green indicating a successful Bluetooth connection.
