Set Up Your Teletrac Navman Integration With Route4Me

On the Telematics Gateway page, click Add Telematics Connection in the top left corner of the screen.

Next, input the name/alias for the connection into the corresponding field (i.e., the name of the telematics vendor, etc.).

Then, select Teletrac Navman from the Telematics Vendor drop-down menu.

After that, input your Teletrac Navman Account ID into the corresponding field. To get your Teletrac Navman account ID, you need to request your corresponding GUID number from your Teletrac Navman representative(s).

Next, input the credentials to your Teletrac Navman account into the User Name and Password fields.

After that, define the preferred Vehicle Position Refresh Rate in the corresponding field.

The Vehicle Position Refresh Rate is the frequency at which Route4Me’s telematics gateway retrieves vehicle tracking data from the corresponding telematics partner.
