Page 23: Connect To Power
ST 9100 - INSTALLATION GUIDE 1. Review the mounting guidelines before permanently mounting the transceiver. 2. Mount the transceiver using cable ties or washers and screws. You can use cable ties if the transceiver remains flat and is either parallel or perpendicular to the ground, for proper operation of the internal accelerometer. -
Page 24: Can Bus Connection
To connect the transceiver CAN bus serial interface to the CAN bus of the vehicle, ORBCOMM recommends using a J1962 (OBDII) connector or an induction sensor, which allows the transceiver CAN bus interface to read information from the CAN bus without damaging the vehicle wires. -
