Using Accounts

You can sign up for a Google Account or use one that you already have. You already have a Google Account if you use an email address to sign in to any Google product, for example: Gmail, YouTube, Google Play, AdWords, Google Apps, or any other Google product.

When you sign in with your Google Account, you'll have access to everything associated with your Google Account, like Gmail, calendar, contacts, apps you’ve purchased on Google Play, and other data associated with that account. If you have multiple Google Accounts, you can add the others later.

If you have personal and work (Enterprise) Google accounts, refer to support documentation on the TSC5 controller / Ranger 5 data collector product page for details on how to best set up your device.

Make sure you remember the password you use to sign into your device or else you won’t be able to access it. Even if you do a factory reset, you will be required to enter the password you used to sign into this device.
