Remove The A700 Vmt From The Vehicle; A700 Vmt Installation Best Practices - Honeywell Vocollect Hardware Reference Manual

Remove the A700 VMT from the Vehicle

Talkman A700 VMT components are designed for easy removal for occasional vehicle service, maintenance or
flexible operational needs. The Talkman A700 may be easily removed by sliding the device out of the dock and
replaced by sliding it back in. Care should be taken to assure that the contacts of the Talkman A700 device are on the
underside and facing so they engage with the contacts of the vehicle dock.
The dock may be easily disconnected from the CM-904-101 power cable and RAM mount should the vehicle be taken
out of service or need to be cleaned. The BL-904 dock should never be exposed to jets of waters such as that used in
cleaning vehicles.
CAUTION: Honeywell does not recommend removing the cable (CM-904-101) from the dock except when
required for occasional service, or once per month maximum. Excessive removal of the cable can cause
damage to the dock and cable that is not covered under warranty or service plans.

A700 VMT Installation Best Practices

Talkman devices and accessories are designed to provide reliable service when used as recommended. The thousands
of Talkman VMT equipment users around the world who have followed the best practices outlined here are enjoying
increased productivity with Talkman devices integrated on their vehicles.
• Do not remove Talkman A700 devices from VMT configurations
Talkman VMT devices were designed and intended for easy installation. They were not designed for frequent
removal.
The exception is the Talkman A730 which was designed to be removed from the holster for occasional scanning,
not to exceed approximately six times per hour. Even if the A730 is not being removed for scanning, it requires a
battery for backup power.
Note: Honeywell does not support configurations of the A700 without a battery.
Honeywell recommends that Talkman devices and cables be left in place after they are installed in vehicles. While
these components may be removed for maintenance or temporary use in other areas, they should not be removed
as a part of regular operation.
Warning: Frequent removal of the Talkman or cable will likely cause a premature mechanical failure to
the cable or dock. This damage is not covered by normal product warranty.
• Protect Talkman devices from damage
A Talkman device should be mounted on a vehicle in a location where operators can easily access Talkman
controls and where the device is well protected from bumps or damage when the vehicle is in use. While recessed
mounting offers good protection, the installer must ensure that this mounting does not interfere with Wi-Fi or
™
Bluetooth connectivity of the Talkman device.
