Driver Cards Before installing the ScorpionTrack 5 unit, please ensure that the installer has both driver cards and that both are fully charged (the cards will arrive fully charged but will run down over time). To check that the cards are fully charged place each one into the charging dock which can be powered up using either the power adaptor supplied with the kit or with any 5 volt micro-USB lead.
Installation Guidelines 1. Unit Install Wherever possible please avoid fitting the ScorpionTrack 5 unit near to vehicle ECU’s or radio receivers and amplifiers. Make sure that the unit is not shielded by metal or carbon fibre when installed as this will affect the range of the built in Radio Frequency antenna for the driver cards.
