IM1000 - DATA MODEM
The iM1000 enables packet and circuit-data connections.
•
Packet data:
sending and receiving e-mail, and transferring small files ov er the packet
data network using standard IP protocols.
Data is sent in bursts. Packet data transmits packets (blocks) of data at
high speed. After the data is transmitted, you can remain connected
indefinitely without being charged for the idle time
Circuit data:
•
faxes over the circuit-switched cellular channel.
Data is sent as a continuous stream through the network to another
modem.
You may use the following information as a fast path to
installation.
To prepare your computer and iM1000 data modem for wireless data use,
the following procedures are necessary.
•
Connect the cable.
Connect the modem to the computer via the data cable.
For more information see “INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS” on
page 16.
•
Turn on the Modem.
Turn on the modem before you proceed with the installation and
configuration.
•
Set up Windows Components.
Use these instructions to verify that Dial-Up Networking and the TCP/IP
protocol are installed on your computer. If not, follow the procedure
provided to install them.
For more information, see “Verifying and Installing Dial-Up
Networking” on page 10 and “Verifying and Installing the TCP/IP
Protocol” on page 13.
•
Install the software.
Use the installation software to install the modem configuration data
software.
For more information, see “Installing the Software” on page 17.

HARDWARE INSTALLATION
HARDWARE INSTALLATION
Introduction
Hardware installation has to be carried out by experienced technicians
familiar with installing similar types of equipment.
Before You Start Installing
Ignition Sense Cable
NOTE
The iM1000 will not operate without the Ignition
Accessories Cable installed or a power on plug connected.
Installation Planning
Planning is the key to fast, easy iM1000 installation. Before a hole is drilled
or a wire is run, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you
intend to mount the antenna, iM1000, and accessories. Plan wire and cable
runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing, and
overheating.
Recommended Tools For Installation
The following tools, screws, and washers are recommended for proper
installation of your iM1000.
• Portable Drill
• Hammer
• Center Punch
• Four screws M4
• Four self drilling screws M4
• Four flat washers M4
• Four spring washers M4
• Phillips #2 Screwdriver

iM1000 -Data Modem
iM1000 Mounting
The standard mounting of the iM1000 can be mounted on different types of
mounting surfaces. Be sure the mounting surface is able to adequately
support the weight of the iM1000. Allow sufficient space around the
iM1000 for free air flow for cooling. Be sure the unit is close enough to the
vehicle operator to permit easy access to operating indicators. Although the
iM1000 can be mounted to a plastic dashboard, it is recommended that the
mounting screws be located so they penetrate the supporting metal frame of
the dashboard.
Antenna Mounting
The best mounting location for the antenna is in the center of a large, flat
conductive surface. In almost all vehicles, these requirements are best
satisfied by mounting the antenna at the center of the roof. Some vehicles
have a large trunk lid that provides a good antenna location. If the trunk lid
is used, connect grounding straps between the trunk lid and vehicle chassis
to ensure the trunk lid is at chassis ground.
Three types of antennas can be used:
1. RAFU136A - Magnetic Antenna
2. FAD5524A - Mobile Window Antenna
3. HAF9067A - Mobile Roof Mount Antenna
Make sure that you refer to the antenna installation instructions according to
the kit number.
DC Power Cable Installation
The iM1000 must be operated only in negative ground electrical systems.
Reverse polarity does not damage the iM1000; ho wever, iM1000 protection
circuits cause the cable fuse to blow. Check the ground polarity before you
begin installation.
The DC power cable (FKN4448A) is long enough for installation in most
vehicles. Begin the power cable installation in the following manner.
1. Determine a routing plan for the power cable with reference to where
the iM1000 is to be mounted.
2. Locate the nearest available chassis ground mounting point and shorten
the black lead to remove excess cable length.
3. Locate the fuse holder as close to the battery as possible and away from
any hot component. Mount the fuse holder using the provided mounting
hole and dress wires as necessary. Connect the fuse holder red adapter
lead plus to the mating receptacle on the red lead of the power cable.
See Figure 3..
4. Connect the power cable black lead directly to the chassis ground.
5. Connect the power cable red lead from the fuse holder to the positi ve (+)
battery terminal. Make sure the adapter cable is connected to the main
power cable red lead.
6. Plug fuse into in-line fuse holder as shown in Figure 3..

Mounting iM1000 - Vehicle Installation
1. Select the location to mount your iM1000 - either on the transmission
hump or under the dashboard. When mounting the iM1000 on the
transmission hump, ensure that the transmission housing is not
affected.
2. Use the iM1000 mounting bracket as a template, mark the positions
of the holes on the mounting surface.
3. Secure the iM1000 mounting flinges to the surface with the four
(M4) screws provided.
4. Mount the antenna using the instructions provided with the antenna
kit. Run the coaxial cable to the iM1000 mounting location.
7
iM1000 -Data Modem
If necessary, cut off the access cable and install the cable connector.
5. To assure compliance with United States FCC regulations on RF
exposure, position the antenna in such a way to maintain a
separation distance of at least 8 inches (20 cms) between the
antenna and the body of any user and nearby person. Connect the
antenna cable connector to the radio antenna connector on the rear
of the iM1000. See Figure 4.
6. Plug the power cable into the iM1000 power connector.

Power Configuration
T o turn ON the iM1000 modem, an ignition signal is required at the ignition
connector. It can be supplied in two ways.
Switched Power Connection
When installed in a vehicle, the modem receiv es the ignition signal from the
vehicle’s ignition switch.
NOTE
The modem operates only when the car switch is turned
ON.

Antenna
Perform the following steps to install the iM1000 modem in a vehicle:
1. Prepare a routing plan for the ignition cable after determining where
the iM1000 is to be mounted.
2. Connect the free end of the ignition cable to the vehicle ignition
switch, and the other end (with the plug) to the iM1000 ignition
connector.
