SmartPad II Installation Instructions
Unpacking Your System
Open the shipping box and examine the contents for any signs of damage. Please notify the shipper and
MID-TECH Customer Support of any damage to the shipping box or its contents. Make sure you have
received all items that you purchased with the SmartPad II System. Contents may vary according to what
you ordered. Table 1-1 lists the standard components that should arrive with your SmartPad II system. Please
keep your invoice and original shipping box. If you need to return the Lightbar, it must be returned in the
original shipping box.
Installing Your System
It is important that you setup and install the SmartPad II hardware properly. Incorrect setup or poor installa-
tion may result in intermittent and erratic operation of both the SmartPad II hardware and software. This
User’s Guide does not cover GPS receiver setup and operation. You should review the appropriate operators
manual for installation instructions. We recommend connecting all hardware components prior to perma-
nently installing each component in the vehicle. Once you have concluded that all components are interfaced
and running properly, you should disconnect everything and install them in the vehicle.
It is very important that you choose the installation location carefully, making sure that all cables and con-
nections are easily reached and there is no excess strain on any connections. A clean and proper installation
will ensure hours and hours of trouble free operation.
GPS Receiver
Please review your GPS receiver User’s Guide for specific installation instructions. Always check each cable
length prior to permanently installing the receiver. Make sure the serial cable from the GPS receiver to the
SmartPad II Interface cable is not crimped or damaged and is placed so that it will not get caught inadvert-
ently by a foot or door.
