Introduction

The GO Focus Pro is a dual-lens dashcam designed for fleets requiring advanced safety video telematics. It features road-facing and cabin-facing cameras with continuous AI inference for pre-collision warnings, red light detection, and pedestrian detection. The GO Focus Pro mounts to the windshield and connects to the vehicle via the HRN-IOXGFPRO-3W 3-wire harness, drawing ignition and constant power from the fuse panel.

When equipped with TVI auxiliary cameras, the GO Focus Pro provides full 360-degree video coverage around the vehicle, reducing blind spot incidents and enhancing driver awareness. All camera feeds are managed through the Geotab Video app and the Geotab fleet management platform.

  1. Before installing the GO Focus Pro, download the Geotab Video app. Available on Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

    • Apple Geotab Video

    • Android Geotab Video

  2. Using a multimeter, identify the constant battery power (B+) fuse slot and the ignition (ACC) fuse slot. Temporarily connect the HRN-IOXGFPRO-3W 3-wire harness to the fusebox using fuse taps:
    • Using a multimeter, identify the constant battery power (B+) fuse slot and the ignition (ACC) fuse slot.

    • Temporarily connect the HRN-IOXGFPRO-3W 3-wire harness to the fusebox using fuse taps:

    • Red wire — ACC (ignition signal)

    • Yellow wire — Constant B+ (battery power)

    • Black wire — Ground (GND)

    • This temporary connection powers the camera for adjustment. The harness will be routed and secured permanently in a later step.

  3. Pre-loosen the screws on the camera using the provided Allen key so you can adjust the camera angle. Install the mounting bracket to the back of the device.
    • Pre-loosen the screws on the camera using the provided Allen key so you can adjust the camera angle.

    • Install the mounting bracket to the back of the device.

    • Connect the 3-wire harness cable to the GO Focus Pro.

  4. Turn on the vehicle and wait for the LED on the GO Focus Pro to go solid green.
    • Turn on the vehicle and wait for the LED on the GO Focus Pro to go solid green.

  5. Launch the Geotab Video app.
    • Launch the Geotab Video app.

    • Select "Activate dashcam" and follow the prompts on screen.

    • The app will ask you to scan the serial number located on the GO Focus Pro box.

  6. With the GO Focus Pro powered on and connected to the Geotab Video app, hold the camera in the desired mounting position on the windshield — within the wiper sweep area. Use the app's live camera view to confirm the cabin and road camera angles look correct from this position.
    • With the GO Focus Pro powered on and connected to the Geotab Video app, hold the camera in the desired mounting position on the windshield — within the wiper sweep area.

    • Use the app's live camera view to confirm the cabin and road camera angles look correct from this position.

    • Once satisfied with the position, use masking tape to mark the perimeter of the mounting bracket on the windshield.

    • Verify sun visor does not block cabin facing camera when in the down positon.

  7. Use the provided alcohol wipe to thoroughly clean the mounting area on the windshield. Let the alcohol evaporate completely before proceeding. Do not touch the cleaned area with bare hands — skin oils will reduce adhesion.
    • Use the provided alcohol wipe to thoroughly clean the mounting area on the windshield. Let the alcohol evaporate completely before proceeding.

    • Do not touch the cleaned area with bare hands — skin oils will reduce adhesion.

    • Remove the adhesive backing from the mounting bracket on the back of the camera.

    • Press the camera firmly onto the cleaned area of the windshield and hold with steady pressure for 30 seconds.

    • If the windshield is below 50°F (10°C), use the vehicle's defrost to warm the glass before mounting — cold glass significantly reduces adhesive bond strength.

  8. Select "Adjust" for the road-facing camera.
    • Select "Adjust" for the road-facing camera.

    • Adjust the camera so that the horizon is in the blue box.

  9. In the app, select "Adjust" in the cabin section.
    • In the app, select "Adjust" in the cabin section.

    • Adjust the physical camera so that the driver's head is sitting in the blue box.

    • Sit in a normal driving position when adjusting the cabin camera to ensure proper alignment.

  10. Once both camera angles are set, the app will ask you to verify and do a final check.
    • Once both camera angles are set, the app will ask you to verify and do a final check.

    • Select "Verify" and the verification is complete.

  11. Dismount the camera from the mounting bracket. Press the mounting bracket for an additional 30 seconds to ensure it is firmly in place. Place the camera back on the mounting bracket.
    • Dismount the camera from the mounting bracket.

    • Press the mounting bracket for an additional 30 seconds to ensure it is firmly in place.

    • Place the camera back on the mounting bracket.

  12. Carefully remove the cover for the driver's side A-pillar and any additional paneling required to route the harness. Tuck the harness cable behind the headliner toward the A-pillar, ensuring it is not obstructing the driver's view.

    • Tuck the harness cable behind the headliner toward the A-pillar, ensuring it is not obstructing the driver's view.

    • Secure the cable along the A-pillar in a way that it does not obstruct the airbag functionality.

    • Use cable ties as required. Trim any excess tie.

  13. Route the harness cable from behind the headliner down to the fusebox. Make the permanent fuse tap connections — Red (ACC), Yellow (B+), Black (GND).
    • Route the harness cable from behind the headliner down to the fusebox.

    • Make the permanent fuse tap connections — Red (ACC), Yellow (B+), Black (GND).

    • Secure all wiring neatly behind the fusebox panel using cable ties. Trim any excess tie.

    • All in-vehicle devices and related cabling must be securely fastened and kept clear of all vehicle controls, airbags, and gas, brake and clutch pedals.

    • This requires the use of a cable tie when securing the device or any extension harness to the OBD connector, securing both sides of the harness. If you do not use a cable tie, vibration in the vehicle can lead to a loose connection which could cause the vehicle’s engine computer to fail, causing potential loss of vehicle control and serious injury.

    • Inspect devices and cabling regularly to ensure all devices and cabling continue to be securely attached.

    • If at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed a warning light illuminates on the vehicle dash or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device, and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control, and serious injury.
