Features/Before using                                
 What is TG105 
TG105 is a communication terminal which is mounted on a vehicle to form a system together 
with server application software on the base station side and used to control movement 
of the vehicle and monitor it from a remote place. 
 Features 
●  TG105 uses LTE, UMTS, GSM and GPRS, so it can communicate in a lot of countries 
that they are used. (A communication contract is required in each place where TG105 
will communicate, however.) 
●  TG105 has Wireless LAN function to be able to communicate other wireless equipment 
such as tablet PC.   
●  TG105 can connect ethernet network in the vehicle. 
 Before using 
●  Since TG105 is a wireless device using radio waves, so it is necessary to obtain 
authorization and conform to the laws of the country or territory where the machine 
equipped with TG105 is being used. It can be used only countries where use of it 
is permitted. For the countries where use of TG105 is permitted, ask your Komatsu 
distributor. 
●  Always contact your Komatsu distributor when exporting or reselling a vehicle 
equipped with TG105. Note that the radio communication function of TG105 may be 
turned off forcibly, when the vehicle is out of the countries or areas where use 
of TG105 is permitted.  
●  Before using TG105, you are required to take some procedures such as application 
for start of use.  For details, ask your Komatsu distributor. 
●  KOMTRAX system uses wireless communications, so it cannot be used inside tunnels, 
underground inside buildings, or in mountain areas where radio waves cannot be 
received. Even when the machine is outside, it cannot be used in areas where the 
radio signal is weak or in areas outside the wireless communication.  
●  There is absolutely no need to inspect or operate TG105, but if any abnormality 
is found, please consult your Komatsu distributor.

Neglecting this may cause a 
trouble, a fire, or an accident. 
Your Komatsu distributor will 
carry out removal and 
installation.   
Installe  the  communication  terminal  at 
leaset 22cm (8.7 inch) from a operater. 
For anyone wearing a pacemaker, 
the radio waves may have an 
adverse effect on the operation of 
the pacemaker. 
Use  a  battery  having  rated  voltage  of 
DC12V  or  DC24V  to  supply  DC  power 
to this set. 
This set is designed to be driven 
with DC power. Use a power supply 
in the rated range. Neglecting this
