PRE-INSTALLATION RECOMMENDATIONS
Conduct a "Bench Test"
Gamber-Johnson strongly advises a "bench test" be conducted to verify that all electronic
and software issues are resolved prior to installation:
1. Make sure computer is operational by itself.
2. Insert computer into docking station and verify that the computer is operating in the
dock.
3. Interconnect entire assembly and verify start-up of all components, including other
equipment (printers, modems, scanners, etc.).
*Gamber-Johnson also recommends positioning of all mounts and equipment in the vehicle
prior to the actual install to verify that mounting locations are safe and practical.
CAUTION: If wiring is shorted to the frame, high current conductors can cause
hazardous sparks resulting in electrical fires or flying molten metal.
