Teletrac Navman is a global leader in connected fleet and equipment management, trusted by commercial, government, construction, and transportation fleets across North America and internationally. Their TN360 platform brings together GPS vehicle tracking, AI-powered video telematics, ELD compliance, equipment management, and asset tracking under one unified system, but the depth of data TN360 delivers depends entirely on the hardware that’s installed, connected, and validated correctly.

Orbital Installation Technologies is an experienced Teletrac Navman installation partner with an in-house team of certified technicians ready to deploy the full hardware lineup across fleets of any size, vehicle type, and operational environment. From hardwired vehicle trackers on heavy-duty trucks to AI dash cam installations, rugged equipment trackers on yellow iron, and battery-powered asset trackers on unpowered trailers, Orbital handles the hardware so your Teletrac Navman investment delivers from day one.

What Professional Teletrac Navman Installation Enables

The TN360 platform is built to give fleet and equipment managers a single, unified view of their entire operation — vehicles, drivers, assets, compliance, and maintenance — all in one place. The quality of that view is determined by the hardware feeding it. A device that’s loosely wired, incorrectly positioned, or improperly registered produces incomplete or inaccurate data, undermining every decision made on it. 

Professional installation by Orbital protects the integrity of the full TN360 program:

• Real-time GPS vehicle tracking with second-by-second location updates, geofencing, and route history
• Driver behavior monitoring, including harsh braking, acceleration, cornering, speeding, and seatbelt detection
• AI-powered video telematics with dual-facing camera coverage, in-cab alerts, and automated incident detection
• FMCSA-certified ELD compliance for hours-of-service logging on heavy-duty and light-duty commercial vehicles
• DVIR digital vehicle inspection workflows and IFTA fuel tax reporting
• Equipment tracking with real-time utilization data, engine hours, CAN bus diagnostics, and maintenance alerts on heavy equipment and yellow iron
• GPS asset tracking across powered and unpowered assets with motion alerts and geofence monitoring
• AI-assisted event review — with a human in the loop — to surface the driving incidents that warrant action and filter the noise that wastes safety managers’ time
• Driver scorecards, coaching workflows, and sustainability reporting are integrated into TN360
• OEM telematics integration for vehicles with factory-fitted hardware, pulling data directly into TN360 without aftermarket device installation

Hardware installed correctly feeds clean, reliable data into TN360 from the start. Hardware installed incorrectly produces GPS gaps, missed engine data, camera misalignments, and ELD failures that compromise the program before it has a chance to perform.

The Teletrac Navman Hardware Lineup

Orbital’s certified technicians are trained across the current Teletrac Navman hardware family. Each device category installs differently, connects to the vehicle or equipment differently, and requires its own validation steps before it’s ready to feed data into TN360.

Vehicle Trackers: VT101 and SI201

The VT101 is Teletrac Navman’s hardwired vehicle tracker, built for heavy-duty commercial vehicles that require full fleet management capability. It supports J1939 ECM integration on Class 7 and 8 trucks for engine-level diagnostics alongside GPS tracking, and connects to the full TN360 platform, including ELD compliance, driver behavior monitoring, and workflow apps. For enterprise and government fleets where data continuity and tamper resistance are program requirements, the VT101 is the appropriate hardware foundation. Installation involves direct wiring to the vehicle’s electrical system, proper selection of the ECM interface, and post-install validation of GPS reporting and data transmission.

The SI201 is Teletrac Navman’s plug-and-play OBD-II tracker, designed for light-duty vehicles and mixed fleets where deployment speed and installation flexibility matter. It delivers second-by-second tracking and integrates with TN360 for location visibility, driver behavior alerts, and workflow apps. For fleets with high vehicle turnover or rotating assets, the SI201 offers a faster path to deployment, but proper bracket mounting, cable management, and device registration are still required to ensure data reliability.

IQ Camera and Multi-IQ Camera

The IQ Camera is Teletrac Navman’s AI-powered dual-facing dash cam, integrated directly with the TN360 platform to give fleet managers a unified view of video and telematics data in a single system. The IQ Camera detects and tracks mobile phone use, erratic head movements, gaze deviations, and eye closure to identify distracted and drowsy driving while triggering real-time in-cab alerts and automatically flagging events for back-office review. Forward and inward-facing lenses capture both the road and the driver, with AI processing events on the device.

The Multi-IQ Camera extends that coverage across more of the vehicle. Integrated within TN360, it delivers a single source of truth across video, location data, and vehicle and driver performance — with intelligent TN360 workflows that tag events for review, support driver coaching, and ensure critical incidents are not overlooked. Camera health monitoring from Orbital confirms devices are operational and providing unobstructed vision, which is only possible when the camera is correctly mounted and positioned from the start. A camera that’s shifted from its installation angle produces degraded detection — the AI can only work with what it can see.

ELD Hardware

Teletrac Navman’s FMCSA-certified ELD hardware supports both heavy-duty and light-duty commercial vehicles subject to DOT hours-of-service requirements, pairing with TN360’s compliance workflows for HOS logging, DVIR, and IFTA reporting. ELD installation carries compliance stakes that other hardware doesn’t. A device that’s not correctly wired to the ECM, or that hasn’t had its data transmission confirmed before deployment, puts the fleet’s DOT audit readiness at risk from the first trip. Orbital installs and validates ELD hardware, confirming ECM connectivity and verified data flow before any vehicle returns to service.

Equipment Trackers: RE400 and RE200

The RE400 is Teletrac Navman’s rugged telematics device for heavy equipment — excavators, loaders, compactors, generators, and other yellow iron and powered assets where utilization data and engine diagnostics are as important as location. The RE400 captures real-time data via GPS, GPIO, and CAN bus, feeding TN360 with utilization reports, maintenance alerts, and engine management data. For construction and mixed fleets managing both vehicles and heavy equipment in a single platform, the RE400 is what connects the equipment side to TN360. Installation requires proper power integration and CAN bus connection for the device to capture the engine data it’s designed to report.

The RE200 is Teletrac Navman’s versatile all-weather asset tracker, suited to equipment that operates across variable conditions and environments. It collects GPS, GPIO, and CAN bus data and delivers real-time information through TN360, supporting equipment utilization tracking, maintenance scheduling, and location visibility in a single device.

Asset Trackers: AT Series

Teletrac Navman’s AT-series asset trackers are built for unpowered trailers, containers, and other non-powered assets that need to be found, monitored, and protected. Recent generations feature a 10-year battery life with indoor tracking capability — positioning them as one-time-install devices that don’t require recurring service visits. Battery-powered trackers for climates or applications where solar isn’t reliable, and solar-powered trackers for outdoor assets with high tracking-frequency needs round out the portfolio. Every tracker requires proper physical mounting, device registration, and geofence configuration before deployment. A tracker that’s loosely mounted or registered incorrectly produces location data that can’t be trusted when you actually need it.

Why Hardwired Installation Matters for Teletrac Navman

Teletrac Navman’s own documentation is direct about this: professionally installed vehicle tracking devices are hardwired into the cab and are tamper-proof. That standard exists for good reason. A device accessible to drivers can be unplugged — cutting off GPS visibility, engine data, ELD logging, and camera coverage the moment it’s removed. At the fleet program level, an accessible device is a gap waiting to happen.

Orbital integrates Teletrac Navman hardware directly into the vehicle’s electrical system using OEM-safe wiring practices, correct fusing for each vehicle make and model, and proper ECM interface selection for each vehicle class. Devices are mounted securely and confirmed to be communicating before the vehicle leaves the bay.

For IQ Camera and Multi-IQ Camera deployments, mounting precision is as important as wiring. A camera that’s drifted from its installation angle changes what the AI detects — and what it doesn’t. Orbital’s post-install QC process includes an AI-assisted photo review, with a human reviewer in the loop, validating camera positioning before any vehicle is signed off.

Heavy Equipment and Mixed Fleet Deployments

Teletrac Navman is one of the few telematics platforms purpose-built for mixed fleets — organizations managing both on-road vehicles and off-road heavy equipment in a single system. That capability is only realized when the RE400 and other equipment trackers are installed and configured to capture CAN bus and engine data correctly, not just GPS location.

Orbital installs Teletrac Navman equipment trackers across construction equipment, generators, compactors, and specialty assets — with vehicle-specific power integration, CAN bus connection (where applicable), and post-install validation confirming data flow into TN360 before the equipment returns to work. For fleets standing up a combined vehicle and equipment program, Orbital manages both sides of the installation using a single, structured process.

TaskRaptor: Deployment Governance Across Every Vehicle and Asset

A Teletrac Navman program covering vehicles, heavy equipment, and unpowered assets involves more hardware categories and more installation variables than most fleet programs. Inconsistency across any of them shows up as data gaps in TN360, and at scale, small gaps compound quickly. Orbital governs every installation through TaskRaptor, its proprietary deployment platform built to bring structure and accountability to large, multi-asset rollouts.

TaskRaptor tracks every step of the installation workflow in real time, with GPS-stamped, photo-verified proof of work for each completed vehicle and asset. An AI-assisted QC review process — with a human in the loop — flags issues before vehicles and equipment are signed off, not after. All job data flows into customer back-office systems through RESTful APIs, giving fleet managers a complete deployment record across every device type in the program.

A consistent process for every vehicle and asset:

• Pre-deployment fleet and equipment assessment with hardware verification
• Vehicle and equipment-specific installation planning, including ECM interface selection, camera positioning, and CAN bus connection requirements
• Secure mounting and electrical integration that protects vehicle and equipment systems and warranties
• Device registration and TN360 platform validation confirming GPS accuracy, engine data flow, and camera functionality
• ELD connectivity and data transmission confirmation before driver deployment
• Vehicles and assets returned to service only after successful validation — not before
