Adding AEMP Assets to Your Account

This article describes how to:

• Add John Deere and Caterpillar AEMP 2.0 assets
• Add Komatsu and Volvo AEMP 1.0 assets

AEMP assets are heavy equipment assets that follow the AEMP (association of equipment management professionals) connectivity standard. Currently, the process for adding AEMP assets is different depending on whether you are adding AEMP assets from John Deere and Caterpillar, or from another provider.

Adding John Deere and Caterpillar AEMP 2.0 Accounts

To add John Deere and Caterpillar AEMP 2.0 assets, you need to add an AEMP account for John Deere or Caterpillar on the AEMP Accounts tab of the My Accounts screen. This creates a connection between Fleet and your John Deere or Caterpillar account. All assets that are listed in your John Deere or Caterpillar account are loaded into Fleet. You can choose which of these assets you want to connect to Fleet and see all connected assets. All connected assets can then be tracked from Fleet. You can add more than one AEMP account from the same or a different provider into Fleet. These accounts are then listed in the AEMP Accounts tab under My Account. 

Setting Up a New John Deere AEMP 2.0 Account

To add a new AEMP account for John Deere so that you can track your John Deere assets in Fleet:

1. On the My Accounts screen, click the AEMP Accounts tab.
2. Click Set Up Account.
   
   
   
3. Under Provider, select “John Deere”.
   
   
   
4. Enter a name for the account. This is used on the AEMP Accounts screen and throughout Fleet to identify this John Deere account.
5. Optionally, enter a tag, which identifies assets associated with the AEMP account in other areas of Fleet.
6. Click Connect on the AEMP Accounts screen and in the dialog box.
7. The John Deere Partner Portal opens in a new window. Sign in to your John Deere account and authorize Fleet to access your John Deere data. If you don’t have permission to give this access, ask your administrator to enable your permission for sharing data from your John Deere account to Fleet. See the John Deere help for more information.
8. Close the John Deere account and return to Fleet. You can now connect the AEMP assets in this John Deere account to Fleet.

Setting Up a Caterpillar Account

1. On the My Accounts screen, click the AEMP Accounts tab.
2. Click Set Up Account.
   
   
   
3. Under Provider, select “Caterpillar”.
   
   
   
4. Enter a Name for the account. This is used on the AEMP Accounts screen and throughout Fleet to identify this Caterpillar MyCat account.
5. Enter the Client ID and Secret from your MyCat account.
6. Optionally, enter a Tag, which identifies assets associated with the AEMP account in other areas of Fleet.
7. Click Connect on the AEMP Accounts screen and in the dialog box.

Connecting AEMP 2.0 Assets to Fleet

After you have set up an AEMP 2.0 account on the AEMP Accounts tab of the My Accounts screen, you can choose which AEMP assets to connect to Fleet so that you can track them:

1. On the My Accounts screen, click the AEMP Accounts tab.
2. Click on a John Deere or Caterpillar account in this list.
   
   
   
3. To connect all AEMP assets in the Asset List, select the check box in the upper left corner of the list, and then click Connect All. To connect only certain AEMP assets, select the check boxes next to individual assets, and then click Connect Selected. The Status column shows whether an asset is already connected or not.
   
   

Adding AEMP 1.0 Assets From Komatsu and Volvo

To connect a new AEMP (association of equipment management professionals) asset from an AEMP 1.0 provider, such as Komatsu and Volvo:

1. On the My Account screen, click the Connect Vehicles tab, or click the Connect Vehicles button in the right part of the screen. 
   
    
2. Under AEMP Assets, click Connect AEMP Assets.
   
    
3. Select the manufacturer of the AEMP asset: Komatsu or Volvo. If you want to add a John Deere or Caterpillar asset, see Adding John Deere and Caterpillar AEMP 2.0 Assets.
   
   
   
4. Enter your AEMP credentials and, optionally, a simple free-form tag to the Asset Tag field. If you have previously entered any credentials on this screen, these are also available for you to select from the top drop-down list. Any tags used previously are also shown in the Asset Tag field when an existing set of account credentials is selected. Click Go to see a list of available serial numbers.
   
    
   

   A connection with the OEM (original equipment manufacturer) is established when a valid set of AEMP account credentials is entered into My Account in Fleet. If at a later time you want to reset or change your AEMP password or username, you must contact the OEM directly. It is important that you then update the credentials in Fleet under My Account to match your new AEMP username and password otherwise your AEMP assets can't connect.

5. Select the serial numbers of the vehicles or assets you want to use, and then click the Add to Order button in the lower right or upper right corner of the screen.
   
    
6. Click Next, accept the terms of service, and then click Next again. The assets are now added to your account.
