Hostserialdevices(e.g.PDAs,laptops,otherserialdevices)
5.2PlanTheInstallation
VerifyPower,GroundandIgnition.Besuretocheckeachsource(power,groundandignition)toensurethat
thepropersignalingexists.Thisistypicallyaccomplishedwithamultimeter.
Beforedrillinganyholesorrunninganywires,decidewhereeachhardwarecomponentwillbelocated(LMU,
antennas,peripherals,etc.).BesurethatthecablestotheLMUarenotbentorconstrictedinanyway.Also
makesurethattheLMUiskeptfreefromdirectexposuretotheelements(sun,heat,rain,moistureetc...).
BeadvisedthataninstallationthatviolatestheenvironmentalspecificationsoftheLMUwillvoidthe

Thebestwaytoensureatroublefreeinstallationistoconsideryouroptionsandmakesomedecisionsbefore
youstart.TakealookatthevehicleanddeterminehowtobestinstalltheLMUforthefollowingpurposes:
Accuratedatagatheringandsimulationofhowcustomersactuallyuseyoursolution
OngoingmonitoringandmaintenanceofLMUequipment
Accidentalorintentionalalterationoftheequipmentorcableconnections
ThefollowingsectionscoversomeoftheissuestoconsiderwhenplanningyourLMUinstallation.

https://puls.calamp.com/wiki/LMU42x0_Hardware_%26_Installation_Guide 31/47
ThedimensionsoftheLMUshouldbetakenintoaccount,particularlywheninstallinginavehicle:
WhetheryouintendtoplacetheLMUunderaseatorintoacavitybehindthevehicle’sinteriormoldedtrim,be
suretheLMUwillfitbeforedrillinganyholesorrunningcable
BecertainthatthecablesrunningtotheLMUwillnotbebentorconstricted.Damagetothecables
mayimpedetheLMU’sperformance.
BecertainthattheinstallationpointwillnotviolateanyoftheLMU’senvironmentalspecification
(temperature,moisture,etc…)asimproperinstallationoftheLMUmayvoidthewarranty.

accesstotheunitafterwardsasundersomecircumstancesitmaybenecessarytoaddadditionalwiringor
connectionstotheLMU.
5.2.2PlacementofAntennas
Thereareeffectivelythreeoptionsforplacementsofanantenna:
Roofmount(magneticorthruhole)
Glassmount
Covert(e.g.undertheseat,dash,etc…)
CommAntennaPlacementGuidelines
TheComm.Antennamustbelocatedatleast20cmawayfromvehiclepassengers,otherpersonnel,or
bystandersinordertocomplywithFCCradiofrequencyexposurelimits.
Typically,theCommantennausedbytheLMUforwirelessserviceisastandard3dBgainwhip.Itmounts
withstandardmounts(i.e.thruhole,magneticmountorpeelandstick)andrequiresagroundplanetowork
properly.Ifpossible,itshouldbelocatedatleast3feetfromtheGPSantenna.Ensurethatthecabledoesnot
getcrushedduringinstallation.
PleasenotethattheantennasprovidedbyCalAmpcombineboththeGPSandCommportions.
GPSAntennaPlacementGuidelines
InordertomaximizetheperformanceoftheLMUtheGPSantennashouldhaveaclearviewofthesky.When
installingtheGPSantennaonavehicle,makesurethattherearenoobstructionsclosetotheantennathatmight
blocktheview360°tothehorizon.Thingslikeairhorns,lights,vents,etc…shouldnotblocktheantenna
beyond5°abovethehorizon.Thebestlocationisusuallynearthecenteroftheroof;howeveritisalso

5.3InstallingtheLMUinaVehicle
ThissectionprovidesinstructionsforinstallinganLMUinavehicle.
Besuretoconsiderthedesigndecisionsdescribedintheprevioussections.Whenyouarereadytobegin
installingtheLMU,followthesesteps:
5.3.1PlacetheLMUunitinthevehicle.
Typically,theLMUshouldbeplacedunderthepassengerseatordashboardofthevehicle.LMUswithinternal
antennasshouldbeplacedtomaximizetheirGPSperformance.Atypicallocationincludeunderthedashclose

AttachtheLMUtothesolidbodyofthevehicle,nottoplasticpanels.TheLMUcanbeplacedoutofsightby
removinginteriortrimandmoldingtoexposeavailablespace,thenreplacingthetrimoncetheLMUisin
place.
5.3.2Connectpower,ignition,andground.
Thepowerinput(redwire)mustbeconnectedtoaconstant(unswitched)+12VDCor+24VDCsupply;
preferably,connecteddirectlytothevehiclebatteryterminalorasclosetoitaspossible.Thisconnectionpoint
shouldbefuseprotectedtonotmorethan5Amps.
Theignitioninput(whitewire)mustbeconnectedtothevehicleignitionoranotherappropriatekeyoperated
line,suchasACCESSORY,ensuringthatpowertotheignitionwireisavailableonlywhenthevehicleignition
ison.
Thegroundline(blackwire)mustbeconnectedtochassisground.
Failuretoconnecttheselinesinthemannerdescribedmayresultindischargeofthevehiclebattery.

5.4.2GPSVerification
ThenextstepistoverifythattheGPSreceiverisseeingenoughsatellitestoobtainavalidGPSposition.
Again,installershavetwochoicesonhowtoperformthisverification.First,liketheCommVerification,there
isaGPSstatusLED(i.e.,theoneclosesttotheSMAconnector).IfthisLEDissolid,thentheLMUhasfound

IftheLEDisnotvisiblethenGPSservicemaybeverifiedusinganATCommand:

Installersarelookingforthe3DRTIMEsettingalongwithavalidLat,Longpair(i.e.somethingotherthan0).
IftheGPSreceiverdoesnothaveavalidlockwithin23minutes,installersshouldcheckantennaplacement
(seetheInstallationNotessectionforplacementsuggestions),theantennaconnectorandthattheantennahasa
