Description

The IOX-ALERT allows a driver to send a notification to a dispatcher through the press of an alert button (not included). Once pressed, the alert button signals the Geotab GO™ device to send a specific engine diagnostic to MyGeotab™. Exception rules can be set to trigger in response to this diagnostic. The IOX-ALERT monitors one switch input for alerting purposes.

WARNING!

This product was not designed to be used in a fail-safe manner. Inadvertent delay or even failure to notify users or intended recipients on activation of the alert button could occur in some cases. This product is not recommended for use in safety-critical applications because it could cause inappropriate expectations by drivers or passengers.

NOTE: For each IOX in the daisy chain, add the max current draw, and do not exceed the maximum total IOX current draw.
