Installation of your vMax™ Live vehicle tracking device is as easy as it
gets – just follow these three easy steps:
1. Plug the two antenna cables and wiring harness into the transceiver
unit, and then place the antenna (with the white text facing UP) on your
dash at the base of the windshield. Run the cables along the side of the
dash at the door hinge, and place the transceiver box under your dash.
For best results, consider using a zip-tie or double-sided tape to secure
the transceiver to ensure it doesn’t fall from beneath the dash.
2. On the wiring harness, connect the RED wire to a constant 12-volt
power line. Connect the BLACK wire to the frame ground. Connect that
BROWN wire to a 12-volt accessory power source (one which only has
power when the ignition is on). It’s that simple!
3. The device is now installed. For a more covert installation, you may
place the antenna under the dash, all the way up near the base of the
windshield, secretly out of sight. Our antennae can see through foam,
glass, and berglass, but it cannot see through metal. For this reason,
it is important that the unit be placed with no metal or wiring between it
and the sky.
The four outputs allow you to have remote controlled access to lock and
un-lock the doors, honk the horn, and similar aspects that permit ease in
control of the vehicles that have vMax Live.
The four inputs allow vMax Live to send information back to the server.
These services can be set up so you can fully utilize your new unit.
