1.2. Onboarding best practice
Due to our experience in integrating a telematics solution into a fleet of machines, we would like to recommend the
following best practice for the initial start-up of a CANlink mobile together with your data platform access:
1. Create a laboratory setup with the device and the launch kit or starter kit.
2. Configure the device for your application with our Proemion Configurator software.
3. Activate the device.
4. Create a PDC file to display the recorded signals on the data portal and assign it to the device via the
management portal.
5. Check the connection of the device to the data platform and the data transmission and display in your
laboratory setup e.g., with simulated CAN messages.
6. Install the device in a real machine and wire it as described in the device manual.
7. Now check the functionality on the real machine.
8. First roll out the new setup on a smaller set of pilot machines to prove the solution before using it in the
complete fleet.
This document will guide you through the steps necessary for your initial setup.
2. Provisioning and GoLive
Provisioning allows you to make a machine with a telematics unit installed available on the DataPortal. The machine
will be visible and during the process you can assign a model and change the machine name, serial number and
PIN/VIN.
GoLive is the automated activation of a communication unit (CU) after Provisioning. Once the CU has been activated,
it is authorized to connect to the DataPlatform and transfer data.
1. Login to the Proemion DataPortal User Manual
2. Login with your username and password
3. Provision the CANlink mobile to make it visible on your DataPortal account as described in the DataPortal ¬
Provisioning
4. Use DataPortal ¬ GoLive to activate the device and permit DataPortal communication
INFORMATION
For the first time login, the initial password must be set. Please use the “Forgot password” function
on DataPortal.
Enter the username which was provided along with the account setup confirmation email.
Another email with instructions on how to reset the password will be sent to your email address.
INFORMATION
Please note that the activation of the embedded SIM card can take up to 24 hours in exceptional
cases.
