Safety and General Information A properly installed VML700 unit minimizes service calls. When mounting the VML700 unit components, consider the following factors: • The mounting surface must have sufficient strength to support the equipment being mounted and to prevent it from becoming loose over time. • Do not attach components to any part of the vehicle subjected to excessive vibration. • Do not mount the VML700 unit on a flat surface where the unit could become partially submersed in water. • The proposed location of the equipment being mounted or wires/cables attached must not interfere with driver/passenger seating or leg space. • Select a location such that heat from the unit does not damage any wiring or any other plastic or heat-sensitive parts of the automobile. • Use the supplied mounting hardware. • Leave sufficient space around the VML700 unit for air flow and installation. • Select a location that permits routing the cables as directly as possible. • Ensure that the cables are not stretched, and not subject to heat from the engine, transmission housing or heating ducts. • Crimp connectors securely. • Do not run cables over sharp edges that may cause excessive wear or chaffing of the cable insulation. • Do not install components in locations where they may cause interference to the operation of the vehicle's controls. • Only qualified personnel may install communication equipment. • Ensure secure tightening of cable connectors. Install this product in a vehicle in accordance with the vehicle manufacturer’s guidelines and the instructions detailed in this manual. Use only the Motorola parts specified in this manual. Check the required mounting locations. It might be necessary to penetrate the bulkhead to reach the battery. Before drilling commences, ensure cable clearance on the opposite side of the bulkhead and do not install the vehicle’s Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s) on the opposite side of the bulkhead. Protect the cable where it passes through the bulkhead by using a grommet or similar protective measures. CAUTION WARNING! Installing the VML700 at the end of the vehicle above the exhaust pipe may cause the VML700 to overheat. VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIR BAGS An air bag inflates with great force. DO NOT place objects, including communications equipment, in the area over the air bag or in the air bag deployment area. If the communication equipment is improperly installed and the air bag inflates, this could cause serious injury. If necessary, contact the vehicle manufacturer for air bag information specific to the vehicle. WARNING! Verify that none of the vehicle’s systems are affected by use of the unit, e.g. cruise control, ABS breaking, traction control, engine management, direction indicators, lights, etc. WARNING! Use existing openings through the bulkhead to avoid drilling. If drilling is a must, verify not to damage the Vehicle Electronic Control Modules (ECM’s), fuel pipes, brake pipes, and/or cable looms. WARNING! For vehicles equipped with electronic braking systems, see “ANTI-SKID BRAKING PRECAUTIONS”, Motorola publication 68P81109E34. It is mandatory that modems installed in vehicles fuelled by liquefied petroleum gas conform to the National Fire Protection Association standard NFPA 58, which applies to vehicles with a liquid propane (LP) gas container in the trunk or other sealed off space within the interior of the vehicle. The NFPA 58 requires the following: (1) The space in which the LP gas container and its fittings are located must be isolated by a seal from the space containing modem equipment. (2) Removable (outside) filling connections shall be used. (3) The container space shall be vented to the outside. Planning is the key to fast, easy and safe installation. MPORTANT Take the following points into consideration when selecting a location and planning the installation. Installation Constraints Refer to the Safety Instructions in “Product Safety and RF Energy Exposure Booklet for Mobile Two-Way Radios in Vehicles or as Fixed Site Control” P/N 6881095C99. The LTE VML700 must be installed in the car’s trunk, on the floor or the side walls (cooling fins facing up, or to the side). IMPORTANT The VML700 must not be installed with the cooling fins facing down. Failure to comply may cause overheat problems and performance degradation. Figure 2-1 shows a typical VML700 installation in a car. MAIN Diversity Trunk Floor VML700 VML700 - Typical Car Installation Before beginning the installation process make sure that the space available at the installation site is adequate for the modem and its accessories. Each installation configuration requires a different area for mounting the modem without obstruction. When choosing a location, ensure easy installation and replacement of the unit. Figure 2-2 gives the VML700 dimensions. 1.71” 4.35cm 7.87” 20cm 8.07” 20.5cm VML700 - Dimensions Cables Routing • Before running a wire or drilling a hole, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend to mount the antenna, modem, and the input/output device. • Plan wire and cable routing to provide maximum protection from overheating, battery acid, moving parts and sharp edges. • Keep cables away from ignition circuits to reduce noise pickup in the radio equipment. • Verify that the cables are of sufficient length. Do not connect two short lengths with a connector; doing so results in signal loss. Refrain from loose excess in the cables, but leave enough slack to allow reconnection if necessary. • Do not run cables externally or underneath floor mats. • Do not locate cables where the driver or passengers can kick them or where they can interfere with operation of the driver’s foot pedals. • When routing the cable, refrain from creating sharp bends or kinks. Drilling Holes • Where possible, use existing holes in the bulkhead, the trunk wall and the channels above or beneath the doors. Run cables parallel to existing car cables if appropriate. • If you must drill holes, verify not to damage other wiring, break lines or gas lines. • When drilling a hole in the roof, take care not to snag the roof liner. • To prevent rusting after drilling, remove all metal burrs and residue, and completely clean the area to ensure the removal of all steel dust. • Insert rubber grommets in all drilled holes to protect cables.
