Powered Vehicle Mounting
Overview
Vehicle mounted brackets are specifically designed for vehicle mount applications. The vehicle mounted assembly restrains
the VX3X and isolates it from shock and vibration.
Overhead, dash and roof support pillar mounting is via a RAM Mount accessory which includes all the hardware and squeeze
plates required for vehicle mounting.
In most cases, disconnect any power and peripheral cables from the VX3X before it is secured in the vehicle mounted
assembly.
Never put the VX3X into the vehicle mounted assembly until the assembly is securely fastened to the vehicle.
The VX3X must have a main battery installed when it is docked in a vehicle mounted cradle.
Quick Start - Powered Vehicle Mounted Assembly
The powered vehicle mounted assembly should be secured to an area in the vehicle where it:
l Does not obstruct the driver's vision or safe vehicle operation .
l Will be protected from rain or inclement weather.
l Will be protected from extremely high concentrations of dust or wind-blown debris.
l Can be easily accessed by a user seated in the driver's seat while the vehicle is not in operation.
Briefly ....
1. Attach the vehicle mounting assembly to the vehicle.
2. Attach the cradle assembly to the vehicle mounting assembly.
3. Secure the VX3X in the mounted vehicle cradle.
4. Adjust the VX3X to the best viewing angle.
5. If so equipped, connect antenna or optional remote mount antenna cable.
6. Connect peripheral cables.
