Telematics

Telematics

Fleet telematics delivers live insights into your vehicles by connecting directly to their onboard systems, tracking engine status, battery, and fuel level through the Bee Maps dashboard. It delivers real-time data that improves operational efficiency, reduces costs, and increases safety and supports ELD legal compliance. The technology relies on DIMO devices that connect to a vehicle's OBD-II port.

Installation

1. Device Installation

Insert the DIMO device into the vehicle's OBD-II port. It powers on automatically and comes online within 1-2 minutes.
