2.3.2 Connect GSM&GPS antenna.

Connect the GSM antenna to EV601.

※The GSM antenna comes in two parts. They must be firmly screwed together to receive a strong

signal. This antenna is not all weather but it can receive a signal through metal. A good position for

this antenna is to run the wiring behind the corner post of the vehicle and locate the antenna in

the hood lining behind the sun visor. Once again only screw wiring to device by hand as damage

could be caused by the use of a spanner.

Connect the GPS antenna to EV601.

※The GPS antenna is an all weather unit and is magnetized for easy attachment.

※The signal for the GPS cannot penetrate steel, only plastic so the GPS antenna must be located in

an open position. The best location is under the plastic panel near the windscreen wipers or on the

inner panel near the hinge of the hood. The lead from this antenna needs to go through the fire

wall and screw to the device firmly by hand only (Do NOT use a spanner or similar device).
