  - Tracker configuration
    Learn how a tracker can be configured to optimally track the behavior of your asset.
  - Asset status indication
    The asset status indicator summarizes the operational status of its tracker or tag. Possible statuses are online, offline, ready for use, sent rate limited or off contract.
  - Maintain your trackers
    Tracker maintenance comprises all possible maintenance tasks during the lifecycle of a tracker.
    - Manage tracker subscriptions
      Each tracker needs to be assigned to an active subscription for it to be able to update location and other data to the platform. The different subscriptions states are: created, active, started, expired and terminated.
    - Device replacement RMA procedure
      When a tracker does not function anymore, it needs to be replaced with a new tracker in order for the tracking experience to continue for a particular asset. The subscription of the broken tracker must also be moved to the new tracker.
    - Tracker battery replacement
      some trackers have replaceable batteries. When a user physically replaces the batteries of a tracker, it is important that the platform is aware of this as well, so that the tracker battery status and remaining autonomy can be correctly calculated.

Tracker battery replacement

some trackers have replaceable batteries. When a user physically replaces the batteries of a tracker, it is important that the platform is aware of this as well, so that the tracker battery status and remaining autonomy can be correctly calculated.

Whenever the battery of a tracker is replaced, the user should specify this in the Sensolus platform. In order to do this, please follow these steps:

Go to the Asset View mode (follow the steps described in this task) and click on the "Battery" tab:
In the Overview section, click on the "Replace battery" link:
A confirmation request will pop-up, please click "Replace" to confirm:

Note: if you replace a tracker's batteries without informing the platform as describe in this page, the battery status and autonomy predictions will be wrong.

Note: please only use batteries provided by Sensolus, because different batteries will be less performing and will result in a shorter battery autonomy, and in addition the battery status and autonomy predictions will be wrong.
