Installation; Mounting To The Vehicle - OXTS RT-XLAN User Manual

Installation

The installation here assumes that the RT-Range and RT systems have been installed in
the vehicle already according to the instructions in their manuals. The installation here
covers the RT-XLAN and how to attach it to the vehicle and to the RT-Range S or RT-
Range.
For any installation it is essential to have one RT-XLAN base unit. This would
normally be in the hunter vehicle but it can be in any vehicle. One or more RT-XLAN
client units can be installed in other vehicles; normally these would be installed in the
target vehicles.
In environments where more than one RT-Range is being used the RT-XLAN bases
will interfere with each other. It is essential to only have one RT-XLAN base unit at
any one location. When more than one RT-Range system is being used at the same
location and two RT-XLAN bases are needed then contact OxTS support for further
help.

Mounting to the vehicle

The base of the RT-XLAN is a pump cup suction mount that can be attached to any flat
non-porous surface such as glass or bodywork. This surface can either be metallic or
non-metallic and makes it ideal for a wide variety of vehicle mounting options. Please
refer to the drawings in Error! Reference source not found. which show the
mounting and removal process.
To attach the device to the vehicle:
1. Wipe the mounting surface on the vehicle to ensure it is free from scratches,
dust or dirt
2. Remove the plastic protection plate at the bottom of the cup
3. Wipe the base of the suction pad to ensure that it is thoroughly clean
4. Place the suction pad firmly onto the surface
5. Repeatedly press the blue button until the red line disappears into the blue
housing
Please note: It is wise to regularly check that the red line does not re-appear. If
it does, repeatedly press it again a few times until it disappears
To release:
1. Hold the RT-XLAN tight with one hand
