’s
can be installed in any location inside a vehicle, a cargo
box or any other inside location, as long as some environmental con-
ditions are met:
•
Fair sky view for better GPS performance.
•
No exposure to water.
•
No exposure to direct sun light.
•
Away from excessive heat sources like a running engine or an
exhaust’s path.
•
Away from excessive cold sources like a truck’s refrigerator or
AC system.
•
Not attached to a highly vibrating structure.
The unit’s location/position can be such that it remains hidden. The
LEDs
indicators do not have to be visible but it is recommended
some access to them for failure/diagnostics situations. The same rec-
ommendation holds for physical access to the unit’s communications
port and button.
