“A Trimble-Enabled Device”

Any discrete Trimble-owned or third party hardware that, through its integration with Trimble-owned software IP, supports workflows of value to Trimble customers.

Examples of Trimble-Enabled Devices

  • An Android tablet running Trimble Transportation’s Driver Management Product: Instinct
  • A gateway, connected directly to an ECU on a Class 8 vehicle, communicating with the CAN bus and interfacing through Trimble Cloud IoT
  • A Trimble RTS573 sharing data with Trimble Connect via Trimble FieldLink
  • A Trimble-branded, but Bosch-supplied LiDar module publishing data to Project Seurat
  • A Trimble machine control system, such as Earthworks, RoadWorks, GroundWorks or Siteworks via cloud and/or IoT systems.
  • A Trimble in-field survey system (Siteworks, UTS etc) that may connect to backend systems via IoT, or other in-field systems via mesh, cloud, or similar point to point or peer to peer comms.
  • Telematics devices (headless) that support AEMP/ISO 15143-3 (or custom) style telematics data streams to back end systems like WorksIQ.
  • Aurora (third party hardware IP) with T4D Edge (Trimble software IP)

Non-Examples of Trimble-Enabled Devices

  • A Trimble-developed hardware module sold to another company with no connectivity to Trimble products or services
  • Trimble software IP that is sold to run on a device that is not in any way connected to Trimble’s systems, nor is in any way associated to a recurring revenue stream for Trimble.
  • An Android or iOS smartphone running Trimble Installation Manager (used to option & license Trimble GNSS & Optical devices)

“A Trimble Device”

A Trimble-Enabled Device that, through its use of transport layer security, can authenticate itself with Trimble Identity.

Examples of Trimble Devices

  • Aurora (third party hardware IP) with T4D Edge (Trimble software IP)

  • Any Trimble-Enabled Device requiring:

    • Connectivity with Trimble IoT
    • Device-assigned licenses from Entitlement
    • Over-the-air updates

Non-Examples of Trimble Devices

  • A foreman’s personal Android tablet running the ProjectSight mobile app.
  • A desktop computer running Trimble Business Center.
