If you have removed a VG from a vehicle and plan to reuse the VG at a later time, you can deactivate the gateway to preserve the data associated with the vehicle. For specific instructions to use the gateway in a different vehicle, see Move a Vehicle Gateway from One Vehicle to Another.
Each VG is associated with a single vehicle and reports GPS, sensor, diagnostic, and dash cam data to the Samsara dashboard. Because Samsara logs the current and historical readings associated with the paired vehicle, it is important to retrieve video and deactivate the gateway before attempting to reuse it in another vehicle. After deactivating the VG, all data associated with the old vehicle will be preserved. This enables you to reset the configuration and save all new data to the new vehicle.
Use the following workflow to deactivate one or more VGs:
-
Select the Settings icon (
) at the bottom of your Fleet menu to view dashboard settings.
-
From within Devices, select Devices > Gateways.
-
Select one or more VGs to deactivate.
-
Select More Actions > Deactivate Gateway.
-
Click Deactivate to confirm the removal of the gateways from your dashboard.
Any data collected by that gateway is preserved under the original vehicle name.
-
To view unpaired vehicles, navigate to Overview (
) > Assets and use the Gateway filter to display devices with
No Gateway Paired.
