Mounting the Modem
The standard mounting of the iR1200 modem can be mounted on different types of
surfaces. You should determine if the surface is able to support the weight of the iR1200
modem. The area should allow sufficient space around the modem for cool air to
circulate.
For vehicle mounting, the unit should be close enough to the vehicle’s operator to permit
easy access to modem’s indicators. Although the modem can be mounted on a plastic
dashboard, it is recommended that the mounting screws be positioned so they penetrate
the supporting metal frame of the dashboard.
