Connecting to the CAN bus Please refer to the Webfleet Solutions tooling for the CAN configuration of your specific vehicle. Important! If you need to alter the setting of the CAN DIP switch, re-cover the switches using the red seal, taking care to close the rubber cover completely.
Important: Follow the order of connecting the wires as described below. First connect the wires then insert the plug into the LINK 740. If you have inserted the plug into the LINK 740 first, you must connect the GND wire before you connect the PWR+ wire and the IGN wire as described below.
First you need to choose the correct position in which to install your LINK 740. Take the following into consideration: Do not expose the LINK 740 to direct sunlight and/or high temperature for long periods to ensure prop- • er operation.
You can attach the holder to the top or to the bottom side of the LINK 740. Attaching the holder using the adhesive strip You can use the adhesive strip to fix the LINK 740 to your vehicle. Follow the safety instructions in this document.
1. Choose a flat surface for the LINK 740. Remember, when the LINK 740 is in the holder, it must not be obstructed by metal objects. 2. Insert the screws into the corresponding holes in the holder.
Mounting the external GNSS antenna If you install the LINK 740 in a position where it has poor GNSS reception, you need to use the external GNSS antenna accessory from Webfleet Solutions, which comes with an integrated magnet and an adhe- sive pad.
