1 Overview
This guide provides detailed instructions for installing new BlackBerry Radar-L modules. It
includes three main tasks:
Task 1: Get ready for installation (see Section 2)
Task 2: Install a BlackBerry Radar-L module (see Section 3)
• Match the module identifier with the asset identifier on the installation worksheet
• Install the module onto the asset to be tracked.
Task 3: Uninstall a module (see Section 4)
Complete BlackBerry Radar documentation is available online when you log in to BlackBerry
Radar Dashboard. For instructions on how to configure the BlackBerry Radar Dashboard or how
to activate newly installed devices, see the online documentation.

2 Get ready for installation
To get ready for installation, you need to obtain a worksheet where you can record the pairing
of each Radar-L module to its asset (that is, the asset that the module will be installed on).
For detailed instructions, log in to the BlackBerry Radar Dashboard and access documentation
from the main menu.

3 Installing BlackBerry Radar-L modules
You may have a large number of BlackBerry Radar-L modules to install. Follow the instructions in
this section to:
• Match each module identifier to its asset identifier
• Install the module to the asset you wish to track.
3.1 Prepare to install
To complete the installation of the module to your assets, you will need the following
components. The following components are contained in the module packaging.
Radar-L Module Package Contents
Drill Template
Lithium Metal Battery
Radar-L Module
Battery Door Screws (x 6)
If you are missing any of the above components in your package, contact your BlackBerry Sales
Representative.
To attach the module to the asset you wish to track, you will need to supply four fasteners.
Depending on the construction of your mounting location, you may wish to use the following
Note: You must install each module horizontally. Vertically positioned modules are not
supported.

types of fasteners. Please Note: Your choice of fastener will influence the size of the tools
required to create the mounting holes (i.e. drill bits) and install or remove the fasteners (i.e.
wrenches/sockets/drivers). An example of this provided below. The actual length of the
fasteners will be determined by the thickness of your mounting surface.
IMPORTANT: The maximum fastener thread
diameter supported by this product is ¼” or M6
(6 mm).
For most secure fastening, we do not
recommend using fasteners with a diameter less
than that of a ¼” or M6 fastener.

3.3 Matching a module identifier to an asset identifier
In order to track an asset, the Radar-L module that is installed on the asset must be associated
with the asset in the BlackBerry Radar Dashboard. It is, therefore, very important to keep a clear
record of which Radar-L module is installed on which asset.
The Dashboard application tracks modules and assets using ‘identifiers’. The asset identifier is
the name or number of the asset you wish to track. The asset identifiers are entered into the
application when you add the assets, and will be listed on your installation worksheet. The
identifier for each Radar-L module is printed on two labels—one attached to the rear housing
and the other in the battery compartment. The module identifier also serves as the serial
number (S/N) for the module.
To match a module identifier with an asset identifier:
1. Locate the module identifier for your device. The module identifier is shown in two
places.
1. Externally—temporary S/N label, attached to the rear housing,
2. Internally—permanent main product label, in the battery compartment.

2. Once you are ready to install the module to the asset, remove the partially attached label
from the outer surface of the rear housing and place it on your worksheet, next to the
asset identifier the module will be paired with.

Tip: If you plan to frequently switch your Radar-L module between assets, you may wish
to record the S/N on the rear housing using a permanent marker, or by creating your own
label. This will eliminate the need to remove the battery cover to find the S/N when
switching the module between assets.

3.4 Module installation
You may install the module on any flat, vertical or horizontal surface that offers enough
mounting area for the module. When selecting a mounting location, carefully consider how the
asset will be used during its normal, day-to-day operation.
Do not place the assembly in a location where it is susceptible to damage from:
• Normal usage activities, such as loading or unloading cargo.
• Moving parts of the asset.!
• Road debris.!

This diagram illustrates the proper installation orientation for the BlackBerry Radar-L module.
IMPORTANT: For accurate tracking, orientation matters.
1. You must install each hardware module horizontally. Vertically
positioned modules are not supported.
2. When mounting on a vertical surface, always ensure the device is
installed with the triangles (located near the top screws) facing up.
Rotations around vertical axis are supported.
3. If vertical mounting is not desired for your application, you may
install the product, rotated 90 degrees along the horizontal axis,
mounting the device to the top surface of the tracked object.
This is helpful for installing on object roofs, fender surfaces, etc.
4. Do not install the device on the asset with the front of the device facing
the ground. This will result in reduced product performance.
