another location. This is typically done via the Internet to any destination in the world.
WARNING
!
Unit may start automatically at any time even if the switch is in the OFF position. Use proper
lockout/tagout procedures before inspection/servicing. All unit inspection/servicing by prop-
erly trained personnel only.
• Two-Way Communication providers can also send commands via their equipment to the control system to
start or stop the unit, change settings and the way the System is operating the unit.
DataTrak is factory installed. DataTrak installation can be confirmed by scrolling through the Advanced User Unit
Data (refer to Section 3.15). DataTrak will be listed under the Installed Options heading.
The control system must be configured for the provider that will be connecting to it (refer to Section 5.2.3). If the
provider is “Qualcomm” and the original Qualcomm TrailerTracs system is being used then the “Qualcomm” selec-
tion must be made. If the provider is Qualcomm and the newer TrailerTracs T2 system is being used or another
communications provider is used, “Other” should be selected. for Lynx Fleet, 57600 Bps should be selected.
