6.10 Testing Installation 

6.10.1 Test Drive 

Disarm the system by inserting the blue plug into the Code Plug socket. 

 

Wait for the audible signal. 

 

Remove the plug. 

 

Start the engine. 

 

Carry out a test drive. 

6.10.2 Extract and Transfer Data 

After the test drive, turn off the ignition.  

 

Wait for the system to arm, indicated by the LED on the code plug socket flashing.  

 

Insert  the  green  vehicle  plug  into  the  code  plug  socket.      A  beep  indicates  the  start  of  data 
transmission.  

 

The  LED  on  the  code  plug  socket flickers  during  data  transfer.    A  second  beep  indicates  data 
transmission is complete.  

 

Remove the green vehicle plug.  

 

Insert the vehicle plug into the download module.  

 

Transfer the data to the PC using MiX Fleet Manager.  

 

Consult the MiX Fleet Manager Help File for further details.  

6.11 Voice / Hands-free connection 

The FM Voice Kit is available as an optional accessory if voice communication is required. The FM Voice Kit 
connects to the FM 3617i/FM 3717i/FM 3817i with the FM300 Voice Kit Harness, which is ordered separately. 

6.12 GPS antenna connection 

Mount the GPS antenna horizontally, as far away from any radio signal, where the least metal obstruction will 
occur, for best results place the antenna on a metal surface. 

Do not connect the F3 line to an external device, unless an OBC with no on-board GPS is used. 

6.13 GSM Antenna connection 

Do not mount the GSM antenna against a metal surface this effects GSM communication.  

Some  vehicle  types  require  that  the  GSM  antenna  be  mounted  outside  the  vehicle  cabin.  Please  confirm 
whether this requirement is applicable before installing the GSM antenna.
