The USFT VT-X5 Install Guide
Thank you for purchasing your new GPS vehicle tracking system!
Installation of your new GPS tracking device couldn't be easier.
Step 1 > Device Placement
Plug the two antenna cables and wiring harness into the device.
Place the antenna under the dash above the instrument cluster (reference Image A). The adhesive side of the
antenna should be facing the sky.
A good placement of the device will yield a minimum of 7
satellites. The device will not transmit data location with
less than 4 satellites in view.
Run the antenna cables along the side of the dash at
the door hinge and place the VT-X5 under the dash. For
best results, use a zip-tie to secure the device to ensure
it doesn't fall from beneath the dash.
Our device transmits once every 30 minutes if sitting
still, or once every 5 or 10 seconds (depending on your
rate plan) when the vehicle is moving faster than 4 mph.
Driving the vehicle around the block will assist in its first
data transmission.
The best location has a full view of the sky through the front windshield (reference Image A.) Make sure the
device is kept free from direct exposure to the elements (sun, heat, rain, moisture).
When installed inside a building, your unit may not receive a GPS signal or cellular signal. GPS signals WILL
penetrate glass, plastic, foam, fiberglass, and wood. GPS signals will NOT penetrate metal.
Step 2 > Wiring and Installation
Please verify that your device is activated prior to installation. When
activating a unit, refer to the SN# on the side of the device (see Image B).
The VT-X5 requires a standard 3-wire installation to operate effectively.
Please familiarize yourself with the 3 wires required for functionality as well
as the optional wires associated with added available features. The wire
colors and functions are on the back side of this installation guide.
NOTE: Do not cut wiring harness to shorten length of cable as this will void warranty.
