3 Antenna and Cable Installation
Note: It is recommended that prior to installation, pre-test the complete set-up. This can be done on a bench
or on the vehicle outdoors. Connect all components to test if everything works fine. Doing so will familiarize
the user on how the parts go together and guarantees it works prior to installation. Make sure the antenna
is located outside and the Iridium GO! shows good signal reception for at least 5 minutes during this test
before you proceed with the installation. Always maintain a separation of at least 30 cm (12 in) from other
antennas.
emergency situation, preventing or delaying an emergency response. These hazards could
cause serious injury or death.
Persons with Pacemakers:
•
Should ALWAYS keep Iridium GO! and the antenna more than eight inches
from their pacemaker when the device is turned ON.
•
Should turn Iridium GO! OFF immediately if there is any reason to suspect that
interference is taking place.
Failure to heed this warning could result in serious injury or death.
Do not leave power and antenna ports uncovered. Open power cover only for as long as
recharging is required, and open antenna cover only when actively using the external
antenna. Leaving the covers open allows moisture and water vapor to enter the device which
in turn could lead to corrosion and damage to the device. This could cause fire or could cause
the device to fail so that it is unavailable in an emergency situation, preventing or delaying
an emergency response. These hazards could cause serious injury or death.
Avoid pinching injuries: do not place fingers between or at edge of magnetic mount and metal
surface.
