After you affix the bracket to a surface, adjust the position of
the antenna . ANY SIGNIFICANT DEVIATION FROM A PARALLEL
ORIENTATION CAN AFFECT THE READING OF A VALID TARGET .
Figure 1.3d
Correct Orientation
The antenna is parallel to the target
vehicle's direction .
Point the antenna so it is parallel with the patrol motor vehicle, (the
direction the patrol vehicle is facing) and parallel with the ground .
• Use only the mounting hardware approved by your
agency . Damage to the antenna housing can occur if
you use incorrect fasteners .
• Do not modify the brackets . Most brackets incorporate
an isolator that prevents the metal housing of the
antenna from coming into contact with the frame of
the car . Removal of the isolator can cause interference
to be easily picked up diminishing performance .
• When removing brackets that have suction cups, use
the tabs on the suction cups to break the vacuum seal .
After you have mounted the antenna, plug the cable into the
antenna and the antenna receptacle on the computer/display unit .
If you are using only one antenna, you must connect it to the FRONT
antenna receptacle . Either the FRONT or REAR button on the remote
can activate a single antenna system .
