Mounting Instruction
Mounting Instruction
1. Attach and secure the mounting plate to the highest point on the safety cage, following these precautions:
l The plate must be mounted so the antenna is not damaged while the vehicle or any of its parts are mov-
ing.
l The mounting plate must be parallel to the floor.
l If the VX3X requires two antennas, they must be mounted at least 12 inches (304.8mm) apart.
2. Attach the female connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna connector on the vehicle mounted VX3X.
3. Insert the male connector on the coaxial cable though the hole in the mounting plate.
4. Secure the connector to the mounting plate with the washer and hex nut.
5. Use cable ties to secure the coaxial cable to the vehicle as necessary. Make sure the cable is routed so it is not dam-
aged by any moving parts of the vehicle.
6. Attach the antenna to the male connector on the end of the coaxial cable. The antenna must be mounted in a vertical
position.
7. If the VX3X is using dual antennas (diversity option), repeat these steps for the second antenna.
Maintenance - Vehicle Mounted Devices
Check the vehicle mounting hardware frequently and re-tighten if necessary.
There are no serviceable parts in the vehicle mounting hardware.
If the vehicle mounting hardware and connections become broken, loose or cracked, the assembly must be taken out of
service and replaced. Contact your LXE representative for assistance.
Cleaning
Do not use paper towels or harsh-chemical-based cleaning fluids since they may result in damage to the VX3X surfaces,
cables, connectors and mounting hardware.
Use a clean soft cloth to wipe any dirt, moisture or grease from the VX3X, connectors, cables or the vehicle mounting
hardware. Do not use any liquid to clean the VX3X, or connectors. Spray or dampen the cleaning cloth with the cleaning liquid.
If possible, clean only those areas which are soiled. Lint/particulates can be removed with clean, filtered canned air.
