WARNINGS 
 

  Warranty void if case is damaged. 

  A1  device  and  all  peripherals  must  be  powerless  during  the  installation.  Turn  off  ignition  and 

disconnect power. 

  Do not use detergents to clean the device. 

  GPRS may interfere sensitive electronics. 

  All devices connected to A1 device must have a fuse protection. 

  Power, ignition and signal wires connected to A1 must be fuse protected, max 10A. 

  It is recommended to use installation materials provided Installation Kit for A1 for installation. 

  As a rule, when pulling Aplicom cables through inlets or tubes during installation, it is not allowed to 

pull directly from connectors. Instead the pull must be directed to cable itself.  
For example, in cable D335083 there's heat shrink assembled just next to Microfit connector (A1 end 
on the cable), which can be utilized for pulling. 

  Connector bodies of the antennas are conical. Avoid extreme torque. 

  The place of installation should be safe from detergents and corrosive substances. 

  Do not install unit in places were safety maybe compromised. 

  PWR connector Pin 3, +12V, Ext. Battery is only for 12 volt lead acid battery do not use it with any 

other power sources.

 

  Ensure CAN connection and limitations from vehicle manufacturer or dealer.

DEVICE INSTALLATION 
The place of installation is safe from 
accidental knocks and excessive humidity. 

 

Unit identification label is protected. 

 

Device is fastened tightly. 

 

CABLES 
The cables are led carefully along a well-
protected route to the device and the 
peripherals. 

 

All cables are correctly connected and 
secured with fuses. 

 

The cables are fastened or supported in 
such a way that during use they exert no 
torsion on the connectors. 

 

ANTENNAS 
GSM antenna is fitted in such a way that its 
visibility to base stations is as unobstructed 
as possible (vehicle roof; as far as possible 
away from other antennas, flashing lights 
etc.). 

 

GPS antenna is fitted in such a way that its 
satellite visibility is as unobstructed as 
possible (vehicle roof; as far as possible 
away from other antennas, flashing lights 
etc.). 

 

Antenna cables are led carefully along a 
well-protected route to the device.

 

 

POWER ON DEVICE

 

Connect PWR and turn IGN on. 

 

Check that power indication LED A is 
green. 
 

 

 
 

 
 
TROUBLE SHOOTING  
 

Problem 

Solution 

No power. 

Check that all cables and 
fuses are connected.  
PWR is connected and IGN 
is on. 
Power indication LED A is 
green after power is 
connected and IGN is on. 

No GPRS 
connection. 

Check that SIM card is 
inserted.  
Check PIN CODE 
requirements from 
application manual. 

No GPS position.  

Check that the GPS antenna 
has open sky view. 
Check interferences from 
other structures to GPS 
antenna. 
NOTE! Electronic heated 
windshield may disturb GPS 
antenna sky view.
