9.Tracker installation
Tracker placement should provide the ability to plug-in connectors, prevent
damage accidental and exclude direct sunlight, moisture, etc.
Recommended location for installation vehicle is empty space under the car
dashboard.
GPS- antenna is installing inside the vehicle or on the vehicle’s roof. If
installed inside the vehicle GPS-antenna should be placed that between it and the
firmament was no metal "screen". The desirable place is with the best sky view.
If installed under the frontal or rear window, reducing the signal and the
accuracy of the vehicle coordinates are possible.
GSM-antenna is installing inside the vehicle.
Antenna cables are laid and fixed over the entire length of the bundles, which
are attached to the mounting platforms. If necessary, the vehicle interior cables
are conducted through technological holes in the body. It’s required to lay the
cable so as to prevent damage during use when closing the door / hatches.
Power cables are conducted through technological apertures in the vehicle
from the battery location to the place of the regular tracker installation. Power
cables are connecting to the respective terminals of the battery. Tracker
connection is making according to the picture 6.1.
During the welding work in the vehicle, be sure that tracker is
disconnected from power supply and from the periphery.
