7 Installation Requirements
___________________________________________________________________
Note: Use the overview on page 2 to check that all the items in the FLEX CM
Telematics Unit package are present.
___________________________________________________________________
The FLEX CM Telematics Unit can only collect data and communicate with other
devices if:
• A SIM card is inserted and a contract for GPRS data transfer has been
concluded.
• The GPS antenna has already been properly installed in the vehicle and the
connection cable has been run to the FLEX CM Telematics Unit’s installation
location (see the following note).
___________________________________________________________________
Note: For detailed information on how to install the GPS antenna, please refer to the
enclosed manufacturer’s instructions.

8 Required FLEX CM Telematics Unit connections
• Connection to the power supply
• Connection to the ignition signal and to ground
• Connection to the vehicle via a CAN interface
9 FLEX CM Telematics Unit installation locations
You can choose the installation location. We recommend, however, that you install
the device into the dashboard.
Please also note the following warnings and instructions:
___________________________________________________________________
Warning: Do not cover any defroster vents on the dashboard with the FLEX CM
Telematics Unit and note any other devices (in the background) before fixing the
device.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Note: The driver must have a sufficient field of vision under all operating and weather
conditions when the device is mounted on the dashboard.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Note: When installing the device observe a safety distance of at least 25 cm between
the device and any person travelling in the vehicle.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Note: If the FLEX CM Telematics Unit is to be installed in locations where higher
requirements must be met (presence of humidity, vapour, oil, etc.), the device should
be installed with the connection strip facing down.

Note: Fix the cables at short intervals (approx. every 500 mm) so that they do not
vibrate.
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Note: When installing into the dashboard, make sure that the FLEX CM Telematics
Unit can be removed quickly, e. g. to carry out a manual firmware upgrade or for
installing a different antenna.
Tip: Put the sticker (included in the package) over the DIP switch and USB interface
openings in the housing to prevent any foreign matter getting into the device.
___________________________________________________________________
10 Installation Position
To fulfill the IP class of the device, the device has to be installed that the opening for
connectors/cables are on bottom side.

12 Setting the termination resistance
Delivery condition: The CAN interface termination resistors are disabled (the switches
are set to OFF and point in the direction of the top interface connector).
The DIP switches for setting the CAN termination resistance on the FLEX CM
Telematics Unit are located above the mini USB connection (see page 4).
___________________________________________________________________
Note: The DIP switches only have to be set when connecting the FLEX CM
Telematics Unit using the 22-pin main connector (see page 4).
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Caution: When using the FLEX CM Telematics Unit together with the CAN interface,
the two termination resistors must be enabled, if the resistors terminate the CAN line
(the switches set to ON and point in the direction of the mini USB connector).
___________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________
Note: When using CAN interfaces on the 6-pin or 8-pin plug, termination resistors are
not pre-installed.
