Final Checks

After installation of the ER-SF1 but prior to any operation of the vehicle, check all vehicle system
lights, signals, and any other devices (such as electronic log devices systems or CB radios) to make
sure they are working properly. Minimum checks should include the following (consult the vehicle
manufacturer's service manual for additional checks that must occur):
1. Constant power: Ensure the ER is powered when the ignition is off (12V to red wire).
2. Switched power: Confirm 12V to the brown wire when the ignition is on.
3. Ground: Ensure the black wire is connected to a solid grounding point in the vehicle with
no paint or rust.
4. Event creation: Turn the vehicle on and press either blue button on the ER. Confirm an
event is created by verifying the LED's light up green from left to right, one by one.
5. Check-in: Hold either blue button on the ER down for ~6 seconds. The center LED on the
unit should go out and come back on. Release the button and confirm that the unit has
attempted to contact Lytx, Inc. During the check-in process, the LEDs will blink and then
turn solid green progressively from left to right.
a. If an LED turns red, the check-in has failed and must be attempted again. There will
be some instances where check in is not possible due to cellular coverage and the
installation is still okay. After check in or failure, the center green LED will come on.
6. Start the vehicle, cycle the transmission, and confirm there are no error codes/check
engine lights.
7. Test the other vehicle components on the power circuit of the ER-SF1 to confirm their
functionality, especially if the circuit is shared.
8. Verify and diagnose all active faults in the vehicle system, other devices, and the ER-SF1
prior to completing the installation.
9. Place the driver safety card and the warning card included with the ER packaging on the
driver's seat.
10. Place the decal indicating the vehicle is equipped with a recording device on the driver's
seat. The customer is responsible for visibly displaying this decal.
