Installing and Connecting the Receiver
Installation
Your FX324 MAP comes with a bracket that lets you easily attach it to a
table, a bulkhead or under a shelf. It can also be built into a bulkhead or a
table.
Note:
For use without an external antenna, be sure to install the FX324
MAP in an open space so that its integrated antenna is in direct
view of the satellites. Always make sure there is no obstacle
between the integrated antenna and the sky.
Installing your GPS with the bracket
To install your GPS receiver with the bracket:
-
Screw down the bracket using the three screws provided.
-
Screw the two knobs on the sides of the GPS, placing one rubber
washer between the receiver and the knob.
-
Connect the Power/Data cable to the back of your receiver.
-
Place your receiver into the notches on the arms of the bracket (place
the washer between the device and the arm on the bracket).
-
Set the desired angle of the device and tighten the two knobs.
To take the GPS receiver out of its bracket:
-
Loosen the two knobs on the sides of your receiver.
-
Pull the receiver so that it comes out of the arms of the bracket.
-
Disconnect the Power/Data cable and, if necessary, the antenna
cable as well.
Building your GPS into a Bulkhead
To build your GPS receiver into a Bulkhead:
-
Cut the bulkhead such that the part that sticks out of the back of the
FX324 MAP can be built into the bulkhead and so that the two
connectors are accessible. Drill holes into the bulkhead in places that
correspond to the four screw pitches on the back of the device.
