Install the HTR4 Recorder
1. Choose a location and mounting option that provides convenient access, is not subject to
high vibration or heat, and cannot be interfered with by unauthorized personnel.
Possible Mounting Locations

2. Attach the U-shaped bracket to the pre-drilled mounting surface using the sheet metal
screws. Secure the recorder to the bracket with the machine screws (hardware included).
Note You can mount your recorder in any
orientation needed.
The U-shaped bracket can be inverted. It can
be used to mount the recorder suspended
underneath a flat surface or to mount it
supported on top of a flat surface.
TIP! For more secure installations, we
recommend you install your recorder inside the
HTENCLHTR security enclosure. See the
HTENCLHTR Security Enclosure Installation
Guide for more information.
3. Connect the 24-pin Interface connector of the wiring harness to the recorder. Wire the
triggers and alarms to the vehicle electrical system. Connect the power cables to the
vehicle battery. Connect the GPS cabling to the HTR4GPS module, if installed.

Note If you are installing the recorder into a
vehicle that previously ran an HTRD400 or
HTRD100 recorder, you can purchase a wiring
harness adapter that allows you to use your
currently wired triggers. See the HTR4 System
Reference Guide for more information.
4. Install up to four cameras. The primary camera is typically installed at the front interior of the
vehicle looking towards the back. Other cameras might be installed on the ceiling halfway
down the aisle and on the bulkhead looking towards the driver and/or front door. For more
information, refer to the Installation Guide
5. Connect the camera(s) to the power, audio and video ports on the recorder's rear panel.
