General Installation Requirements
•All power connections must be either soldered or made using the poke and wrap
(aka “lineman’s ties”) method. Wrap and tape, T-taps, Scotchlocks, or any other
power connection method is unacceptable.
•All cabling must be neatly routed and run, using zip-ties to secure the wiring.
•All connections made in the vehicle and all connections on the TM470J must be
tamper-sealed using the provided Torque Seal.
•The TM470J must be securely mounted , with screws being the preference, but
wire-ties being an acceptable alternative, if necessary.
•The removable sticker from the TM470 must be affixed to the doorjamb of the
passenger’s side of the vehicle.
•Prior to contacting Verification, use the diagnostics app on the CTO7 to verify the
IP, the GPS signal, the wireless signal, the PTO status (on/off), and the ignition
status (on/off).
•When installing a PTO sense, the default is the grey negative input. If a vehicle
has a positive PTO output, please follow the diagram on the next page that
details the use of a relay to invert polarity.
•Upon the completion of the installation, the technician must call for verification
at 714.934.8770. The verification code provided at the end of the call must be
notated, as it is a requirement for payment.

CTO7 Installation Requirements, con’t
CTO7 Testing: Prior to calling for verification, please ensure that the following testing
procedures have been completed on the CTO7:
•Log into HOS using “test” as the username and “1234” as the password. Ensure that
HOS field at bottom of screen changes from off duty to on duty. After 3-5 minutes, log
out and ensure that duty status changes to off. There is no need to sign the logs.
•In the navigation screen, input a route to ensure that the CTO7 can navigate to an
address.
•Send and receive a message from the messaging screen. This test will be repeated
during the verification call.
NOTES: Be sure to use the CTO7 MARKED CABLE. Using the CTO2 cable will damage the
cable and the CTO7 may not work properly.
Ensure that CTO7 snaps securely into the mounting bracket, and that the mounting
bracket and articulation is tight and secure.

Sterling LT Series

Sterling LT Series- CTO and FIL Location
The CTO7 is installed on the blank panel of
the center dash, as shown at top right. The
FIL is installed in the smaller blank panel
below the CTO7, to the left of the bank of
switches. A small relief notch is required to
be filed into the dash panel to allow passage
of the CTO7 data cable, as shown at bottom
right. Please ensure that adequate cable slack
is provided so that the driver may adjust the
CTO7 as needed.
Note: Please refer to the CTO7 mounting and
provisioning instructions for direction as to
how to mount and test the device’s
functionality. The CTO7 must be fully tested
prior to calling for verification.

Sterling LT Series- Power, Diagnostics,
and PTO Connections
Power Connections: As the 9-pin Deutsch connector provides
12 volt constant power, only the ignition sense requires an
external connection. The ignition feed is accessed from the
rear of the ignition switch, as show at top right. Many of the
wires are pink, thus a digital multimeter must be used to
verify the correct wire.
PTO Connection: While there is a PTO switch on the dash, it
does not provide an adequate output for the TM470J. The
best source for PTO is from the passenger’s side relay panel.
Carefully remove the panel and connect to the positive
output of relay #13, which is for the transmission. As nearly
all of the wires are pink, a digital multimeter must be used to
determine the correct wire. This wire will provide a positive
output, which must be inverted to a negative signal with the
provided relay, and then connected to the grey wire on the
TM470J wiring harness.
Diagnostic Connection: The 9-pin Deutsch plug is located on
the bottom of the dash, facing downwards, directly below
the ignition switch. Carefully remove the OEM port and
replace with the J-bus y-adaptor.

Sterling LT Series- Antenna
and Device Mounting
Antenna Location: The antenna will be mounted
to the lower passenger’s side corner of the
windshield, as shown at top right. Please ensure
that the antenna is oriented in the correct
direction, and that the windshield has been
thoroughly prepped with an alcohol wipe prior to
mounting the antenna.
Device Location: The TM470J is mounted directly
behind the keyswitch panel to the HVAC vent
using two screws, as shown at bottom right.
NOTE: After verification, please ensure that all
connections on the device and in the vehicle are
tamper-sealed using the provided Torque Seal.

Mack CH Series

Mack CH Series- CTO and FIL Location
The CTO7 is installed on the blank panel of
the center dash, as shown at top right, above
the CB radio power connection point. The FIL
is installed in the same panel, to the left of
the CTO7, centered between and slightly to
the right of the air switches. A small relief
notch is required to be filed into the dash
panel to allow passage of the CTO7 data
cable, as shown at bottom right. Please
ensure that adequate cable slack is provided
so that the driver may adjust the CTO7 as
needed.
Note: Please refer to the CTO7 mounting and
provisioning instructions for direction as to
how to mount and test the device’s
functionality. The CTO7 must be fully tested
prior to calling for verification.
