INSTALLING THE
SATDOCK CRADLE
When selecting a location for the SatDOCK cradle, consider these
guidelines:
Ensure that each mounting surface is strong enough to support
•
the control unit.
Mount the handset so that it is within easy reach of the driver
•
during normal vehicle operation.
Ensure that the SatDOCK is within cable distance of the HFI
•
unit.
Position the handset and cables so that it does not interfere
•
with vehicle operation or with driver or passenger seating or leg
space.
The SatDOCK is supplied with a universal RAM-mount bracket that
enables mounting to any flat surface within a vehicle or on a wall if
required.
Mount the cradle/holder so that the handset is within easy reach of
the driver during normal vehicle operation.
Allow enough room so that you can easily insert the 9555 handset
into and remove it from the cradle.
Ensure sufficient room is allowed for the antenna and interface
cables to be routed from the rear of the SatDOCK.
Securely mount the cradle in the desired location, ensuring that it is
not obstructing any of the vehicles controls or accessories.
An optional mounting bracket may be used for more tailored
installations. Various brackets can be obtained from Auto Electricians
or automotive parts suppliers.
