Device data has stopped updating: where to start

Separate account access, communication and positioning before reporting an issue

Updated 11 November 2026

An old location does not, by itself, identify a fault. First record what you can see, the device concerned and the time of the last available data. Available status fields depend on the software configuration.

Cannot access the software or deviceCheck the software login address, account and permission to view the device. Save the error message and time.

Distinguish communication from positioning

Communication delivers data to the software; positioning determines the location. Check when the position was recorded and when it was received. Underground parking and tunnels can affect positioning or communication, so note where the problem started and where normal operation resumed.

Check the device network variant, SIM/data status and the project’s connection settings. Use installation records to identify the exact device and mounting position. Indicator lights, sleep and reporting behaviour vary by model; physical checks must follow the applicable device instructions.

Prepare a clear issue record

Include the model and device reference, date/time and time zone, location, observed behaviour, last normal record and checks already made. Redact unrelated personal or location data before sharing screenshots. Do not include passwords, verification codes or access keys.
