“This side towards sky”)
Do NOT cover with any type of metal
Wood, fiberglass, plastic and glass covering the device are acceptable but can
decrease battery life
If installed in a bad position the unit will take much longer to acquire GPS. This
can significantly decrease the battery life.

Mounting the Device
The ACSPSATmini was designed to be mounted to an asset using double-sided
adhesive tape and/or the included mounting bracket. The mounting bracket has
four screws that attach to the asset and allows the ACSPSATmini to be mounted
so the antenna can face the sky. The ACSPSATmini attaches to the mounting
bracket using four Phillips-head screws.
This can be accomplished by verifying that the device can be seen in your Titan
Tracking account. It may take up to 35 minutes for the first report to
come through.
