Chapter 1: Introduction
The VX6 is a rugged vehicle-mounted computer with a Microsoft® Windows® CE 5 operating system. The VX6and its Quick
Mount Smart Dock are designed to be mounted in a vehicle with either a RAM mount or U bracket system. A power cable is
provided with each VX6. Optional communication cables are available.
About This Guide
This VX6Vehicle Mounting Reference Guide provides instruction for the installer to follow when mounting a VX6in a vehicle.
1-1
Preparing the Powered Vehicle Mounted Cradle for Use
The powered vehicle mounted assembly should be secured to an area in the vehicle where it:
l Does not obstruct the driver's vision or safe vehicle operation .
l Will be protected from rain or inclement weather.
l Will be protected from extremely high concentrations of dust or wind-blown debris.
l Can be easily accessed by a user seated in the driver's seat while the vehicle is not in operation.
Quick Start
The following list outlines, in a general way, the process to follow when preparing the VX6 powered vehicle mounted cradle for
use. Refer to the following sections in this document for more details.
1. Attach the RAM base vehicle mounting assembly to the vehicle.
2. Attach the RAM arm assembly to the vehicle mounting assembly.
3. Attach the VX6 assembly to the RAM arm.
4. Adjust the VX6 to the best viewing angle.
5. Connect antenna. Note: The vehicle remote mount antenna cannot be used by devices with an internal antenna.
6. Connect peripheral cables.
7. Secure the DC/DC or 12 VDC power connector from the vehicle mounted power supply to the Power port.
8. Secure all cables in strain relief cable clamps.
The VX6 in the powered vehicle mounted assembly is ready for use.
1-2
Maintenance - Vehicle Mounted Devices
Check the vehicle mounting hardware frequently and re-tighten if necessary.
If the vehicle mounting hardware and connections become broken, loose or cracked, the assembly must be taken out of
service and replaced. Contact Technical Assistance for help.
Cleaning
Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the VX6 surfaces, cables,
connectors and mounting hardware.
Use a clean soft cloth to wipe any dirt, moisture or grease from the VX6, connectors, cables or the vehicle mounting hardware.
Do not use any liquid to clean the VX6, or connectors. Spray or dampen the cleaning cloth with the cleaning liquid. If possible,
clean only those areas which are soiled. Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air.

Chapter 2: Install U Mounting Brackets
Caution:
This device is intended to transmit RF energy. For protection against RF exposure to humans and in accordance
with FCC rules and Industry Canada rules, this transmitter should be installed such that a minimum separation distance of at least 20 cm (7.8 in.) is maintained between the antenna and the general population. This device is not
to be co-located with other transmitters.
Equipment Needed: Phillips No. 1 screwdriver and a Torque wrench capable of measuring to 50 inch pounds (5.64±.56 N/m).
Note:Torquing tool is not supplied by Honeywell. Bolts, washers, and wrench needed when attaching the bottom mounting
bracket to the vehicle are not supplied by Honeywell.
The U-Bracket system consists of
l U-Bracket for mounting VX6
l UPSBattery mount options:
o
Integrated UPS battery mount
o
Remote mount for UPSbattery
l Available without U-Bracket for vehicles previously equipped with an Honeywell vehicle mounted computer
Before installation begins, verify you have the applicable vehicle mounting bracket assembly components necessary for your
mount type.
2-1
U-Bracket Mount System
Note:Torquing tool is not supplied by Honeywell. Bolts, washers, and wrench needed when attaching the bottom mounting
bracket to the vehicle are not supplied by Honeywell.
Components
Bottom Mounting Bracket
This bracket is mounted to the vehicle. The VX6 can be mounted to the bottom mounting bracket. Additionally, the UPS battery
pack may be mounted to the bottom mounting bracket.
If the optional UPS battery pack is to be mounted to the bottom bracket, use the following parts included with the UPS battery
pack:
l 1” long aluminum spacer w/through hole (2 each)
l 1/4 flat washer (2 each)
l 1/4 locking washer (2 each)
l screw, pan head, 1/4-20x2 (2 each)
2-2
Back Bracket Assembly
Note:Rear Bracket may have a different appearance than shown however hardware and mounting instructions are the
same.
Back Bracket
Hardware:
l 1/4 flat washer (8
each)
l 1/4 locking washer
(8 each)
l 1/4 flat washer (8
each)
2-3
Procedure
Mounting Positions
The VX6 viewing angle can be adjusted through a wide range to provide the best viewing angle.
Torque Measurement
You will need a torquing tool capable of torquing to 50 inch pounds (5.64±.56 N/m).
Torque all screws and bolts according to the following table:
For these screws and bolts…Torque to
1/4 bolts50.0±5 in/lb (5.64±.56 N/m)
2-4
Step 1 - Mount Bottom Mounting Bracket to Vehicle
1. Position the bracket to allow access to the switches and ports on the bottom of the VX6.
2. Attach the bottom mounting bracket to the vehicle mounting surface using a minimum of four 1/4 bolts (or equivalent)
fasteners.
Note:1/4 bolts and washers not included. It is recommended to use lock washers and flat washers on the fasteners.
IMPORTANT: Mount to the most rigid surface available.
After the bottom bracket has been attached to a rigid surface, you are ready to assemble the VX6 bracket configuration.

Step 2 - Attach Back Bracket to VX6
Turn the VX6 off before attaching the rear bracket.
2. Place the VX6 face down on a stable surface.
3. Align the rear bracket with the holes on the back of the VX6. Attach with four 1/4- 20x5/8 bolts, using one flat washer and one
locking washer per bolt. Place the locking washer on the bolt before the flat washer.
2-6
Step 3 - Attach Assembly to Bottom Mount Bracket
1. Place lock washer first, then flat washer on 1/4-20x5/8 bolt. Next insert mounting bolts through the curved apertures in
the bottom mounting bracket and into the screw holes on the side of the back mounting bracket.
2. Loosely tighten each bolt as it is inserted.
Important: Do not torque bolts until all bolts are in place and viewing angle is adjusted.
3. Loosen the hex bolts on both sides to adjust the viewing angle of the mounted VX6.
4. Torque the hex bolts to 50±5 in lb (5.64±.56 N m).
Note:Test the torque on the bolts frequently during operation and re-tighten if necessary to 50±5 in lb (5.64±.56 N m).
