Mounting Locations
3.1
Antenna Mountain Location
Ensure that the antenna location provides a good view of the sky for optimum GPS
performance. You must use a Teletrac Navman-approved antenna. This must be IP-67 rated
if the antenna will be mounted in an exposed location with little or no protection from the
weather.
3.2
Qtanium 400 Mounting Location
The installation is considered to be permanent because the firmware can be updated
without removing the Qtanium 400 from the asset.
When selecting a mounting location, consider the length of the cables and proximity to all
connection points. Mount the Qtanium 400 and associated cabling in a location that does
not contain moving parts or obstruct serviceable areas.
Although the Qtanium 400 has an IP-67 rating, Teletrac Navman recommends that you
mount it in a location that will provide maximum protection from dust, water, and vibration.
The Qtanium 400 is rated up to 70°C but Teletrac Navman recommends that you choose a
mounting location that minimises exposure to extreme temperatures. Also be aware that,
Important The antenna must be located at least 20 cm (8”) from any person to meet
FCC radio frequency exposure requirements.
Note Use of an antenna that is not approved by Teletrac Navman, or an antenna that
is installed contrary to recommendations, may result in poor GPS or cellular
performance and may invalidate your warranty.
Important The Qtanium 400 contains an accelerometer that detects movement. It is
critical that the Qtanium 400 is mounted securely on a rigid surface where it cannot
move independently of the asset and / or vibrate off its mounting location. The final
orientation of the Qtanium 400 after installation is not important.
