Overview
Gearbox integrates with Procon Telematics via API every night to retrieve odometer and hour meter readings. These readings play a crucial role in Gearbox for calculating Services Due and tracking running costs per hour/kilometre. Automatic readings sourced from telematics are preferred over manual entries due to their reduced susceptibility to user error. Furthermore, the API feed from Procon ensures consistent and timely capture of readings.
You must have an active Procon account with API Access and Gearbox administrative privileges to complete the below steps.
Please Note: Gearbox uses vehicle 'fleet number' or 'registration' to match Assets in Procon using Procons 'Vehicle Name'.
