Contigo 6601H Installation Manual

Commercial Vehicle Productivity and Security
The 6600H/6601H is a versatile and economical GPS tracking beacon
designed for fleet management needs in all commercial vehicles. The
"H" designation in the model number is used to indicate beacons that
are hard-wired when installed in the vehicle.
Combined with our commercial mobile monitoring portal, subscribers
can manage and view the location of any or all vehicles in a fleet, run
a variety of valuable reports, and manage vehicle maintenance alerts.
Antenna Configuration
The Contigo 6600H/6601H comes with a combined GPS/Cell Network antenna
module. The 6600H uses an external antenna attached with FAKRA
connectors, while the 6601H is equipped with an internal antenna housed
within the beacon.
For either configuration, the antenna must be positioned in the vehicle so that
it has a clear signal path to as much of the sky as possible, without metal
obstruction. For internal antennas, the beacon itself must be positioned
properly for good signal reception.
External Antenna Installation (model 6600H only)
The following antenna models are supported for the 6600H:

For best performance, the top of the antenna should face the sky

underneath the front windshield glass. For covert installations, an
ideal location is under the dashboard, as close to the front
windshield as possible.
