Setup and Add Devices to Beekeeper

These instructions will guide you through setting up your fleet and adding Bee LTE devices to your fleet

Setup your fleet

1

Install and activate a SIM

Once you have an active SIM card, it’s time to authenticate:

  • While the Bee is off, insert the SIM card into the designated SIM card slot

  • Power the Bee LTE on

  • Connect the (iOS: Bee Maps app / Android: Bee Maps app) with the Bee - leave it connected for 10 seconds

  • If successful, an in-app notification should appear “Now mapping with LTE”

  • Reboot the Bee LTE device

2

Opt into Beekeeper from Bee App

  • Connect the (iOS: Bee Maps app / Android: Bee Maps app) with the Bee LTE

  • From the Bee Maps App, click on Enable Beekeeper

    • If not prompted, go to Settings > Bee > Advanced and enable Beekeeper

  • Enter and verify your email address e.g. [email protected]

3

Create fleet

  • Open the email you received and click on Visit Beekeeper

  • Login into Beekeeper's web application

  • Add your fleet name e.g. Bob Logistics

4

Confirm the Bee is active

  • Open the Monitoring page on Beekeeper

  • The new Bee LTE device should appear in the Monitoring list view

5

Install the Bee in vehicle

  • See here for Bee install guide.

Add devices to your fleet

To add devices to your existing fleet, simply repeat step 1 and 2 above using the same email address you used in Step 2.

For example, in step 2, we used [email protected] to create the Bob Logistics fleet. So, we would use that same email address for future devices to auto-add them to our fleet.

Add additional Bee devices to your fleet

If you have 15 or more devices that you need added to a Beekeeper fleet, contact us and we can bulk add them.
