ER-SF1 Event Recorder with J1939 Network Instructions for Self Installation
Mounting Location Guidelines
CAUTION:
An improperly positioned event recorder can reduce program effectiveness.
The event recorder needs to be mounted in a location that provides an unobstructed view of the
driver and the road in front of the vehicle.
1. Interior-facing Lens View: Must span from the outside shoulder of the driver to the
outside shoulder of a front seat passenger.
2. Exterior-facing Lens View
a. Must be inside the path of the wiper blades.
b. Must capture a clear view of everything in front of the vehicle, beginning as close to
the front of the vehicle as possible without cutting off the horizon.
To use the ER device to temporarily gauge the best position, first loosen the Torx screws so
the ER can rotate in the bracket. Then hold it up to the windshield.
Mounting Location Restrictions and Exemption
The figures below provide Lytx's recommendations for mounting the ER on the vehicle windshield
that work within the guidelines set forth by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration
(FMCSA)*. However, some states have adopted laws that restrict locations where objects can be
attached to the vehicle windshield. Always refer to any applicable federal, state, provincial and
local laws that concern mounting devices on vehicle's windshield or other locations in a vehicle
before choosing a mounting location.
