Truck installation 

For a truck installation, there is a dashboard gateway version as depicted in 
Figure 16

. 

The Dashboard USG is deployed as Portable USG, to provide real-

time measurements from sensors in the truck cargo. The unit powered of the 
truck cigarette lighter. 
The Dashboard USG may be placed on the dashboard in the cabin. If feasible 
-  the  installation  should  be  firm  enough  so  that  the  USG  will  not  be  moved 
accidentally.
