attached to the GPS module cable or the Digital Input Adapter Cable.
See the diagrams below for help on disconnecting and connecting the cables
properly:

Mounting the On-Board Reader

The On-Board Reader can be mounted to the dashboard or to another easy-to-
reach location in a vehicle in one of three ways:
• Mounting with the provided Velcro tabs
• Mounting with the provided double-sided foam tape tabs
• Mounting with an customer-provided mounting plate

Note: No matter which mounting option you decide to use, note that the card slot should be

facing the driver, with the indicator light and download button clearly visible.

If the On-Board Reader orientation needs to change to mount it and access it
easily, thread some or all of the cables through the grooves on the back of the
reader so that the reader lies flat once the cables are in place.

Disconnecting Cables:

Hold both cables by their connector housing and pull apart.

The housing of the male connector slides to separate the cables.

Connecting Cables:

Slide

Connector Housing

Hold the female connector and push the male connector from behind, allowing

its housing to slide back. The cables lock together when a connection is made.
