This system has been designed for use
with the Palm Tungsten E2 PDA.
Warning: The PDA may be
susceptible to damage as a result
of extended exposure to sunlight,
heat or extreme cold. It is highly
recommended that the PDA
be removed from its mounting
location if the vehicle will be
subjected to high concentrations
of sunlight, heat or cold for
an extended period of time.
Gale Banks Engineering is not
responsible for damage to PDAs
resulting from exposure conditions.
Locate the docking station in your kit.
The mounting location of the docking
station is vehicle specific except for
certain models that use the universal
mounts. Make sure to do a dry pre-
fit before permanently mounting. For
mounting locations, refer to the following
figures:
Ford (’03-’04) – Figure 17
Ford (’05-’07) – Figure 20
Dodge (‘03-’05) – Figure 10
1.
clean mounting area with isopropyl
alcohol or similar residue-free cleaning
agent to prepare the surface for the
adhesive tape.
2.
The docking station has adhesive
tape applied to it at the factory. Prior
to removing the protective liner from
the tape, test fit the unit on the dash
as indicated in the appropriate photo.
Refer to the figure list above for
vehicle-specific mounting locations.
The docking station will fit the dash
contours only where shown in the
photos.
Note: In cold climates, best results will
be obtained if the vehicle’s heater is
run to bring the inside temperature up
to “room temperature” (at least 68°F).
3.
After test fitting, remove the liner
from the adhesive tape on the back of
the docking station.
4.
carefully align and secure the
docking station to the dash in the
same location as it was test fit. Press
the docking station firmly against the
dash for one minute to ensure good
adhesion.
Vehicle specific instructions follow.

Proceed to Section 4 after Mounting
and connecting PowerPDA
DoDGE: (‘03-’05)
Note: The docking station must
be connected to the previously
installed Banks PowerPDA-compatible
EconoMind Tuner via a RJ12 cable
(similar to telephone connector). If
your EconoMind Tuner is not installed,
refer to the EconoMind Tuner owner’s
manual to install the Tuner before
proceeding.
5.
To route the RJ12 cable connecting
the docking station to the EconoMind
(see EconoMind owners manual for
details), you will need to unclip the
knee panel (Figure 11). Pry and unclip
as needed to gain enough clearance to
route the cable behind the panel.
6.
Locate the RJ12 cable on your
EconoMind wiring harness and pull
enough cable through to reach the
bottom of the docking station.
7.
Locate and remove the screw in
the dash panel above the hook as
shown in Figure 12.
8.
Remove the dash panel by gently
pulling and unclipping it as needed
(Figure 13).
