Installation
The VDM is equipped with an AEMnet connector (power, ground, and CAN)
so that it is a true plug and play experience when used with other AEMnet
products such as the Infinity ECU.
Ideally, the VDM module should be installed near the center (both fore/aft
and side-to-side) of the vehicle and as low as possible. For example, the
module may be mounted to the floor of the vehicle between the two front
seats. The module should be mounted using the provided "hook-and-loop"
material or may be more rigidly mounted using fasteners through the
module's mounting ears. Take care to avoid over-torquing mounting
fasteners, if used.
The external markings on the module indicate the orientation of the
accelerometer and gyro axes. Typically, the module is mounted so that
"+x Accel" is pointed towards the front of the vehicle in the direction of
travel. Please make note of this orientation for use when analyzing the
data later on.
The antenna should be mounted in a location where the top is pointed
towards, and has a clear view of, the sky. The bottom of the antenna is
magnetic or additional hook-and-loop material is provided for mounting; the
dashboard or rear package shelf are
not
acceptable locations. The
antenna should be mounted as high as possible in the center of a metal
roof away from other antennas or structures. If the roof of the vehicle is
non-metallic then a flat piece of metal at least five inches in diameter, to
function as a ground plane, should be fabricated upon which the antenna
should be placed.
