direction.
Further possible installation positions are:
in the roof cove opposite the entrances (if the cover is made of plastic)
in the roof lining
with articulated buses, in the rear area of the front section (in the geometric
centre of all axles)
with coaches, also on the luggage compartment (if the luggage compartment
components are at least in part of wood or plastic)
– Read the chaptersee chapter 5.2 "ECU – The electronic control unit", page
31.
– Mount ECU so that the distance to the sensors is as equal as can be.
Select distance to truck driver's cab such that length of ECU cable (8 m) is
sufficient to reach driver's cab.
In the towing vehicle there is an ideal installation position between the front
and rear axles underneath the frame.
