Before you install and configure the WiaTag application on a mobile device, you need to create a unit in the monitoring system. This can be done either from the interface of the monitoring system or from the WiaTag application itself. These instructions will assume you are an administrator for some trucks and will be installing them in the monitoring system.
The required fields are the ones with a red asterisk after the label. After entering the “Name” and “Unit Type”, enter “WiaTag” as the device type.
The server address will default into the “Server address” control
Add a unique ID. Note that both numeric and alphabetic values can be used for it (for example, mobile device's IMEI code). The indicated identifier is used in WiaTag for a unit connection. If you would like to use a password for a connection, then it is necessary to indicate one in the 'Device access password' field.
