Genie adds new telematics solution to its machines

2019-03-05

Focused on providing actionable information, flexibility and transparency, the new Genie? Lift Connect? telematics hardware is now available as a standard feature with a 3-year subscription on all new machine purchases for Genie scissors, booms and telehandlers. Telematics hardware and a three-year subscription for Genie GR? and QS? vertical masts, TZ? trailer-mounted booms, as well as for Terex? and Genie branded light towers, can be purchased as an option. The subscription includes the ability to consume the data through the Genie Lift Connect Portal and/or the standard ISO API (ISO15143-3).

?From knowing how equipment is performing or how often a machine is being utilised, to where each unit is or when it is ready for maintenance, machine data can provide a lot of insight to a rental business,? says Christine Zeznick, Genie Senior Product and Business Development Manager, Terex AWP. ?Today?s Genie Lift Connect telematics technology has evolved to help our customers understand the information their machines are providing, enabling them to more efficiently manage their businesses. The Genie Lift Connect telematics offering has been developed in direct response to our customers? rental business needs for actionable information, flexible use and transparency in the data.?

Genie Lift Connect solutions will be available in North America in early 2019, select countries in Europe and the Middle East by mid-2019 and globally in 2019-2020.
