Installation & Support Document

Preparing for installation

Prior to installation, please ensure the correct Geotab hardware has been provided (safety sensor, bracket and locking tool) in addition to ensuring that the installer has alcohol wipes on hand.

Installation instructions

WARNING! Always read and follow all safety information, including Important Safety Information and Limitations of Use, before harness and/or IOX installation. Disconnect the GO device from the vehicle before installation and reconnect it after installation (see link). Failure to follow these instructions and warnings can result in loss of vehicle control and serious injury or vehicle damage.

! IMPORTANT: Professional installation (Certified Geotab® Installer or equivalent) is required for the safe and proper installation of this product (harness and/or IOX). The installer must have sufficient technical knowledge and expertise for the respective installation.

WARNING! All in-vehicle devices and related cabling must be securely fastened and kept clear of all vehicle controls, including gas, brake and clutch pedals. This requires the use of a cable tie when securing the device or any extension harness to the OBD connector, securing both sides of the harness. If you do not use a cable tie, vibration in the vehicle can lead to a loose connection which could indirectly cause the vehicle’s engine computer to fail, loss of vehicle control and cause serious injury. Inspect devices and cabling regularly to ensure all devices and cables remain securely attached.

WARNING! Ensure the GO Focus is installed securely and the installation location does not affect the driver’s visibility to see the road, mirrors, or vehicle controls. Failure to do so may interfere with vehicle operation resulting in property damage, collisions leading to death or serious personal injury.

! IMPORTANT: The GO device must be disconnected from the vehicle prior to installation

Sensor calibration

Once all the above installation steps are done, calibrate the sensor by doing the following:

1. Press and hold the red camera SOS button for 3 seconds to enable the sensor Wi-Fi.
2. Using your phone, navigate to Wi-Fi connections and find and select the safeway connection. The SSID is GoFocus-####, where #### are the last 4 digits of the serial number.

3. 

3. The Wi-Fi password is the reverse of the camera serial number on the camera. For example, for serial number 123456AB, the password is BA654321. This is case-sensitive. The serial number can be found on the Cameras page in MyGeotab.

4. ✱ NOTE: After logging in with the default password, we strongly recommend you create a new password.

4. Navigate to Settings > Network and then Internet > SIMs > TELUS, and then disable Use SIM:

7. Enter the Height and Offset parameters. Height is the distance from the ground to the sensor lens, and Offset is the distance from the center of the car to the sensor lens.

Important safety information and limitations of use

WARNING! Do not attempt to install, configure, or remove any product from any vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or otherwise in operation. All installation, configuration, or removal must be done only in stationary vehicles which are securely parked. Attempting to service units while being operated could result in malfunctions or accidents, leading to death or serious personal injury.

WARNING! All in-vehicle devices and related cabling must be securely fastened and kept clear of all vehicle controls, including gas, brake and clutch pedals. You must inspect devices and cabling on a regular basis to ensure all devices and cabling continue to be securely attached. Loose cabling or devices may impede the use of vehicle controls, resulting in unanticipated acceleration, braking or other loss of vehicle control, which could lead to death or serious personal injury. Improperly fastened in-vehicle devices may detach and impact operators upon sudden acceleration or deceleration, which may cause injury.

WARNING! If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning light illuminates on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control, and serious injury.

WARNING! Your in-vehicle devices must be kept clear of debris, water, and other environmental contaminants. Failure to do so may result in units malfunctioning or short-circuiting that can lead to a fire hazard or vehicle damage or serious injury.

WARNING! Do not attempt to remove the devices from the vehicle in which they are originally installed for installation in another vehicle. Not all vehicles share compatibility, and doing so may result in unexpected interactions with your vehicle, including sudden loss of power or shutdown of the vehicle’s engine while in operation or cause your vehicle to operate poorly or erratically and cause death or serious injury and/or vehicle damage.

NOTICE: This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Configuration, servicing, and repairs must only be made by an authorized reseller or installer. Unauthorized servicing of these products will void your product warranty.
