GO9 Device
Geotab’s GO9 telematics device is the most powerful yet. The GO9 offers a 32-bit processor, 4x more memory and 5x more RAM than the GO8®. Similar to the GO8, the GO9 offers state-of-the-art GPS technology, g-force monitoring, GEOTAB IOX® expandability, engine and battery health assessments, and communication on the LTE network (for more information, refer to the Cellular section of the Technical Specifications and Features table below).
Vehicle Tracking
Using Geotab’s patented tracking algorithm, the GO9 accurately recreates vehicle trips and analyzes incidents. The GO9 also offers in-vehicle alerts to instantly notify drivers of infractions and — with hardware Add-Ons — provides live coaching for driver’s on-road performance. The GO9 does not require a dash-mounted antenna or any wire splicing.
Security
GO device security is designed for end-to-end protection of your data.
Key security implementations in the GO9 include:
- Network interfaces use authentication, encryption, and message integrity verification.
- Each GO9 device is individualized. Each device uses a unique ID and non-static security key — making it difficult to fake a device’s identity.
- Over-the-air updates use digitally-signed firmware to verify that updates come from a trusted source.

An unsecure device installation can cause poor electric and/or data connection that can lead to short circuits and fires or cause malfunctions of vehicle controls that can result in serious personal injury or significant damage to your vehicle. Some examples requiring professional installation from an Authorized Installer are:
- The OBD port location is such that the device could protrude or interfere when entering or exiting the vehicle or located so could be inadvertently kicked or bumped during vehicle operation.
- The device is not fully secured and so may be able to vibrate loose or get kicked or knocked.
- An electrical harness or additional wiring is required.
- Vehicle mounting modifications are required to secure the device (for example, removing of panels), the OBD connector has been deformed or damaged, or there is any physical damage visible to the electrical wiring.
- The device does not beep six times and power on when first installed.
- The installer questions their ability to complete a secure installation according to these instructions.
WARNING! Do not attempt to install, reconfigure, or remove any product from a 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 devices while the vehicle is in motion could result in malfunctions or collisions, leading to death or serious personal injury.
How to Install the GO Device
1
Locate the vehicle’s engine diagnostic port, typically found in the driver’s area at or below knee level.
✱ NOTE: For heavy-duty trucks, always use a vehicle-specific harness when offered by Geotab or the vehicle manufacturer (see Harness Identification and Application and Harness Assessment Cheat Sheet). Where a heavy-duty truck-specific harness is not offered by Geotab or the vehicle manufacturer, use the adapter harness (HRN-CG13S1) for any 16-pin (OBDII) installation method to avoid possible GO device damage.
2
Align the receiver end of the device with the engine diagnostic port and push in place. Please ensure the device is well-connected to the diagnostic port. Once connected, the device emits 6 quick beeps.
3
Once the device is connected and receives power, the LEDs on the front of the device start blinking then turn solid once completing the actions below.
Red LED — Device configuration
Green LED — Cellular network connectivity
Blue LED — GPS network connectivity
The device emits two quick beeps every 60 seconds during set-up. Initial startup may take several minutes to complete.
4
Once all three LEDs turn solid and you hear 10 quick beeps, secure the device using the provided cable tie.
✱ NOTE: The device is considered installed when the Green and Blue LEDs turn solid.
5
When performing under-dash installations with an extension harness, make sure the antenna side points upwards — towards the sky for faster GPS latch times. The GPS antenna in the GO9 is located on the bottom of the device.
6
Navigate to installmygps.com and open MyInstall (public) to verify that the device is communicating. Under the Installer Information, enter your name and your company name, and then press Next. Under Device serial number, enter your GO device serial number, found at the bottom of the device, and then press Validate.

Enter vehicle related information: vehicle name, license plate, VIN, make, model, year, odometer, engine hours, work order reference, and installation comments. You can manually enter the Make, Model, and Year fields or tap the search icon beside VIN to auto-populate them. If you enter the Odometer value, you must select a unit of measurement (km or miles). You can use the Work order reference field to enter the work order number. You can enter Installation comments if desired. Tap Finish installation to complete the installation.
✱ NOTE: For some vehicle makes and models, the auto-populate option might not be possible.
Please refer to the MyInstall User Guide for more information.
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! If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning lights up 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.
