Mix Telematics Integration

Overview

 

Gearbox integrates with Mix Telematics via API every night to retrieve odometer and hourmeter readings. These readings play a crucial role in Gearbox for calculating Services Due and tracking running costs per hour/kilometer. Automatic readings sourced from telematics are preferred over manual entries due to their reduced susceptibility to user error. Furthermore, the API feed from Mix Telematics ensures consistent and timely capture of readings.

You must have an active MiX Telematics account and Gearbox administrative privileges to complete the below steps.

Please Note: Gearbox uses vehicle 'Fleet Number', 'Registration' or 'VIN' to match Assets in Mix Telematics using the 'FleetNumber' or 'VinNumber' field, Please ensure these are matching within Gearbox and Mix Telematics for the integration to work.
