GETTING STARTED
Mobile Installation
To install the mobile, select a safe, convenient location inside
your car that minimizes danger to your passengers and
yourself while the car is in motion. Consider installing the unit
at an appropriate position so that knees or legs will not strike it
during sudden braking of your car. Try to pick a well ventilated
location that is shielded from direct sunlight.
1. Install the mounting bracket in the car using the supplied
self-tapping screws and flat washers.
2. Position the mobile, then insert and tighten the supplied
hexagon SEMS screws.
Note: double check that all screws are tightened to prevent car
vibration from loosening the bracket or transceiver.
Determine the appropriate angle of the mobile, using the 3
screw hole positions on the side of the mounting bracket.
DC Power Cable Connection
The mobile can support both 12V and 24V car battery. Be sure
to use a 12V vehicle battery at least that has sufficient current
capacity. If the current to the mobile is insufficient, the display
may darken during transmitting.
1. Route the DC power cable supplied with the mobile
directly to the car’s battery terminals using the shortest path
from the mobile.
Note: the entire length of the cable must be dressed so it is
isolated from heat, moisture, and the engine secondary (high
voltage) ignition system cables.
2. After installing cable, in order to avoid the risk of damp,
please use heat-resistant tap to tie together with fuse box.
Don’t forget to reinforce whole cable.
3. In order to avoid the risk of short circuit, please cut down
connection with negative (-) of battery, then connect with
mobile.
4. Confirm the correct polarity of the connections, then
attach the power cable to the battery terminals; red connect to
the positive (+) terminal and black connects to the negative (-)
terminal.
Use the full length of the cable without cutting off excess even
if the cable is longer than required. In particular, never remove
the fuse holders from the cable.
5. Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative
terminal.
6. Connect the DC power cable to the mobile’s power
supply connector.
Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab
clicks.
