If you make a repair for a vehicle (such as replace an antenna for a device) or swap out its LMU, you can add a new installation record on the Installations screen.
Note: For more details about the Installations screen, see Viewing Installation Data.
To enter a new installation log for a vehicle, follow these steps:
- Click
>> Installations.
The Installations screen will appear.
- Find the row of the vehicle you want to add a new install record for, filtering the Vehicle row if necessary. (See Sorting and Filtering Column Data for details.)
- Click
on the far left of its row.
The vehicle's Installations details window will appear, listing all the entered installations for it.
- Click Add Installation.
A new row will appear with modifiable fields.
The default date will be today.
- If the installation/repair was performed on a different day, click in the Date field and select the new date from the calendar picker that will appear.
- Click the Action drop-down arrow and select Repair (if this isn't an initial LMU installation for the vehicle [New Install]).
- Click in the Vehicle Location field and type the address where the installation/repair was done.
- Click the LMU Location drop-down arrow and select the placement of the device in the vehicle.
By default, the Installer value will use your Synovia username.
- If you're entering the log for someone else (who actually performed the installation), select your name and type theirs instead.
- If you have any comments to add, click in the Notes field and type them.
- You can add a file such as a Word doc or PDF that includes pictures of the device and installation activity by clicking
in the Attachment column and using the Open dialog box to navigate to and attach the file.
- Click
at the far right of the row.
Your new installation record will be saved.
Note: You can delete a record by clicking
at the far right of its row and selecting Yes in the confirmation dialog box.
