2.3. Terminal vehicle installation
iON Connect is powered from the vehicle’s battery via OBD-II connector. Inserting the device into OBD-II
is enough to fully connect it.
In most cases, OBD-II is placed near the front panel of the vehicle. Sometimes it is fit into the glove
compartment or placed on a special shelf and hidden behind a decorative panel. For exact location for each
particular vehicle brand, check the respective documentation.
It is also possible to use OBD-II extender for convenience
iON Connect is fitted with GSM and GPS/GLONASS internal antennas. Metal elements over OBD-II may af-
fect the reception of satellite signals. In this case, use external GPS/GLONASS antenna connected via MMCX
connector for consistent reception of signal from navigational systems. The device automatically switched
to operation with external GPS/GLONASS antenna when it is connected. For statistics on external antennas
operation, check Conf_iRZ program’s
“Diagnostics” tab.
Please contact the manufacturer or a dealer for the list of recommended equipment.
