If you need information not covered in this guide, please contact your Customer Care representative. TRADE SECRET. Trapeze Proprietary and Confidential.Copyright © 2017 Trapeze Software ULC, its subsidiaries and affiliates. All rights reserved. 7 of 35 Ranger v4.4 Installation Guide Jan 2018 Before You Begin 1. Carefully read the Installation Guide before installing this product. If anything is unclear, please contact your Customer Care representative for support. 2. Ensure that the NEGATIVE battery connection is disconnected before beginning work. Some components may lose short-term memory, that is, engine or transmission adaptive parameters, and radio presets after a protracted time without battery power. 3. Ranger device should be serviced by qualified, trained personnel only. Attempting to remove the cover or disassemble the device could expose you to dangerous high voltage points. 4. Do not attempt to install or operate a damaged device. If the unit has been exposed to excessive amounts of water; shows evidence of physical damage; or is not operating properly; unplug it from the power source and contact qualified service personnel. 5. Use of thread-locking compounds such as Loctite may cause serious damage to plastic enclosures. Many thread-locking compounds are not compatible with thermoplastics and can lead to stress cracking. This will require the unit to be returned to replace the ABS enclosures. 3.1 Care and Cleaning of the Touch Panel • • • • Do not use high-pressure air, water or steam to clean the surface of the touch panel. The action may cause the touch panel to malfunction. Clean the touch panel surface with a dry soft cloth; only alcohol or ammonia-based cleaners can be used with caution when necessary. Always dampen the cloth and clean the panel. Do not spray the cleaning agent on the panel itself. The touch panel is sensitive to long-term water exposure and any excess moisture should be wiped off. Do not apply adhesive materials to the surface of the touch panel. This can cause permanent damage. This restriction includes stickers, tape and static screen protectors. The use of aftermarket screen protectors is not recommended and may void the warranty of the touch panel. TRADE SECRET.

Ensure that the equipment is not in the path of any active airbags. Ensure that the driver still has access to all controls on the dashboard. Ensure that the driver has a clear view of the terminal from the seated driving position. Ensure that the terminal is within easy reach of the driver from the seated driving position. Ensure that the mounting location is a solid surface. Locations that allow even small amounts of initial movement will loosen the placement of the device over time. Before drilling any holes or using screws, check for vehicle wiring under the carpet or behind the instrument panel which could be pinched, cut or otherwise damaged. If mounting through the floor, put body sealer over the underbody projections. Stamped acorn nuts, filled with sealer, are available at most body shops for this purpose. This keeps moisture out of the carpet and insulation and forestalls rust in this area. If mounting under the instrument panel, be sure that there is no interference with the proper operation of the foot controls. Inquire if the vehicle is cleaned with a high pressure water wand. If so, ensure that all equipment is installed somewhere that protects them from this type of cleaning. 6.2 Examples of Suitable Mounting Locations TRADE SECRET.

The full list of these options are explained in the following sections. The Ranger part number label on the back of the unit can be interpreted to give configuration details for that particular unit. The following graphic shows an example of a label: 9.1 Numbering Structure The following list explains the different characters of the part number label to determine what options are included with any specific Ranger. (This numbering format is subject to change.) Numbering is in the format “RANGER 4.3 123456–7” (Example: “RANGER 4.3 T4050X–1”) Number Description 1st Number T = Trapeze Logo A = Asset Works Logo B = No Logo 2nd Number 4 = 4 GB SD Card (All units) 3rd Number 0 = No External RF or Handset Connectors 1 = External M5 for Handset 6 = External R–SMA for WIFI and QMA for GPS 7 = External R–SMA for WIFI, QMA for GPS and M5 for Handset 4th Number 0 = No cell modem (No SIM Card Required) 1 = Verizon EVDO Modem (No SIM Card Required) 2 = Sprint EVDO Modem (No SIM Card Required) 3 = USCC EVDO Modem (No SIM Card Required) 4, 5, or 6 = SIERRA MC8790V HSPA Modem (SIM Card Required) 7 = OPTION NV GTM661W HSPA Plus Modem (SIM Card Required) 8= Sprint EVDO Modem without Bluetooth (No SIM Card Required) TRADE SECRET.

(This may change at a later date.) 9.4 Handset, GPS, Wi-Fi Options (3rd Number) Look at the back of the unit to check which connectors are available for the handset, GPS, and Wi-Fi options. Even though these connectors are there, this does not necessarily mean they need to be used. The Ranger unit can be used as a hands-free speaker phone when equipped with a voice capable modem hence the handset connector should never be required. The connector, however, may be available on some units. If you require a handset, contact your Customer Care representative. There are many types of GPS and Wi-Fi antennas available such as mag mount and window mount. Choosing one to fit the needs of a particular installation should be done with the help of a Customer Care representative. 9.5 Modem Option (4th Number) If an HSPA modem is selected, a SIM card must be installed into the unit as shown in the following graphic. The card should click into place when installed correctly. It can be ejected by pushing it inwards until a click is heard, and then can be removed. TRADE SECRET. Trapeze Proprietary and Confidential.Copyright © 2017 Trapeze Software ULC, its subsidiaries and affiliates.

The card reader can read magnetic or contact type cards. Specifications: ISO 7811 Magnetic card reader/ISO 7816 Smart Card Reader (combined into the same enclosure). 9.7 Ignition Sense Option (6th Number) Before the Ranger unit is assembled, the ignition input option is set with internal jumpers. If the Standard Ignition input option is selected, the ignition sense threshold is set to 1.6V and the ignition sense line should be connected to an appropriate point on the vehicle as described in the section on Connection Points. If the Alternator Charge Voltage Detection option is selected, the ignition sense threshold is set to 12.9V, and the ignition sense line on the main cable should be connected to the battery voltage. Care should be exercised in selecting this option. In some cases, the vehicle battery charging system is not strong enough to maintain sufficient voltage on the battery for the Ranger unit to detect. This is often the case with highly customized vehicles that contain aftermarket items that consume significant power such as heaters, AC units, and wheelchair lifts. 9.8 Main Cable Option (7th Number) Customers can choose whether they want the “Octopus” cable, which has connections terminated to appropriate connectors, or the 24pin Molex option where a secondary cable connects to it and provides an interface to the appropriate points on the vehicle. Typically, customers order the 24pin Molex option if they are upgrading from Ranger 1 or 2 to Ranger 4. TRADE SECRET.

Jan 2018 24 of 35 Ranger v4.4 Installation Guide Jan 2018 10 Connection Points 10.1 Splicing T-Taps are not a suitable form of splicing into existing cabling. All splices must be soldered. Adhesive-lined heat shrink must be applied for protection. 10.2 Power Power connections should be made directly to the battery and fused as close to the battery as possible. Avoid using a cigarette lighter or “Power Point” receptacles as power sources. Trapeze does not recommend wiring power directly to a vehicle kill switch because the Ranger unit will not power down correctly. Appropriate fuses are provided with the installation equipment. Typically, powering the Ranger unit directly from the battery ensures that voltage drops are kept to a minimum. If it is necessary to power the Ranger unit from an existing circuit, avoid using circuits that are used to power high current accessories such as AC units, heaters, or wheel chair lifts. 10.3 Ground Point The ground point should be that point where the (-) terminal from the battery is connected to the body. Typically, this connection to the battery is a 6 or 8 AWG black wire connected to the wheelhouse or radiator support. Do not fuse the ground lead. If the ground-side fuse were to open, the entire supply current is conducted by an alternate current return path, which may cause the feed line to overheat possibly resulting in damage. 10.4 Vehicle Speed Sensor for Odometer Pulses (Optional) Most installations use the Ranger GPS receiver for mileage tracking, however, in some cases, a wired odometer connection may be required. Many vehicles have a Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS) point that provides a pulse train from the transmission. Vehicles that do not have a VSS point with adequate signal characteristics require the installation of a transducer. It is the responsibility of the installer and customer to locate a VSS point or determine the appropriate location for a transducer. Your Customer Care representative may be able to assist in locating a suitable VSS point. He/She can also provide information on the type of signal that is required for accurate odometer tracking. 10.5 Emergency Switch (Optional) The emergency switch is usually installed somewhere that would allow for covert operation. This location needs to be chosen by the customer prior to the start of installation. A switch can be provided if required. It is sometimes possible to use an existing switch already on the vehicle. Contact a Customer Care representative to discuss your specific requirements. 10.6 Switched Ignition Signal It is important to utilize an unused ignition point. Connecting to an ignition point that is currently being used to switch other devices can cause improper operation of those devices. The ignition sense input can be configured in two ways: standard ignition detection or alternator charge voltage detection. Interpret the part numbering label to determine how the unit is configured. If it is configured to use the alternator charge voltage detection option, connect the ignition sense line to the battery, otherwise, use an ignition signal from the vehicle. See Ranger Configurations and Optional Parts for more information. If the Ranger installation requires using an ignition point on the vehicle (i.e., standard ignition detection method), there are usually two options available to connect to an ignition sense line: auxiliary electrical panel or a fuse panel. If neither of these options are possible, then contact your Customer Care representative to discuss TRADE SECRET.

It is highly preferable to find an ignition source that goes high only when the engine is actually on. If this source cannot be found, an ignition source that goes high only when the ignition is in the ON position is the next recommended source. 10.6.1 Auxiliary Electrical Panel (Preferred) Many bus manufacturers include an auxiliary electrical panel for interfacing peripheral devices. The following graphic is an example of an auxiliary electrical panel in a Ford van: Typically, one of these terminals is a switched ignition point. A ring terminal should be used when connecting to this type of ignition interface point. Ask the local maintenance personnel if you need assistance to find this panel. 10.6.2 Fuse Panel An unused ignition activated position in the fuse panel is another option. This installation requires an Add-ACircuit fuse holder as shown in the following graphic: It is not acceptable to use a “fuse sleeve”. TRADE SECRET.

Use caution when routing wires between the passenger and engine compartments to avoid chafing or pinching the wires. Use grommets over any exposed sharp edges and strain reliefs to keep wires in place. Seal all holes to prevent moisture intrusion. 2. Route and secure all wiring under the hood away from mechanical hazards such as exhaust manifolds and moving parts. 3. Avoid running power leads in parallel with vehicle wiring over long distances. 4. If cabling is routed under the instrument panel, be sure that there is no interference with the proper operation of the foot controls. 11.2 Strain Relief Ensure that there is no strain exerted on cable connectors where they enter the unit. Avoid placing the unit in a position where the cable connectors entering the back of the unit are under pressure or strain of any kind. Ensure the power cable is fully inserted before replacing the cable cover. In the event of undue stress or strain on installed cables and connectors, permanent damage may occur that can weaken the connections. This may result in intermittent or complete loss of communication and or power. Always include strain relief every 2-3 feet on long cable runs. As the Ranger unit can be tilted and rotated freely by the driver/user, cabling should be installed such that moving/adjusting the position of the unit does not exert any significant stress on the cables. 11.3 Labeling It is important to always label cabling at connection points. This practice and using cables with consistent coloring will make maintenance easier. 11.4 Wire Types The following are the minimum specifications for the hook-up wire that should be used during the installation process: • • • • Ranger Power and Ground 300V, 105°C PVC, 18AWG stranded Ignition 300V, 105°C PVC, 22AWG stranded Odometer Interface 300V, 105°C PVC, 22AWG stranded Ranger Inputs (example: Emergency Input) 300V, 105°C PVC, 22AWG stranded 11.5 Electrical Measurements Always ensure that there is adequate voltage at the point where Ranger is being powered. Compare this voltage to the voltage at the battery. The two voltages should be almost the same or a different power point should be chosen closer to the battery. 11.6 Connection Types 11.6.1 Acceptable Connection Types TRADE SECRET.

Cellular, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth antennas are capable of transmitting. Ranger units should be installed and operated with a minimum distance of 20 cm (8”) between the radiator and the operator or any passengers. The orientation and mounting location of Ranger v4 can have an effect on antenna performance. To optimize GPS performance, mount the Ranger vertically with a clear view of the sky. 12.2 External Antennas If desired, external Wi-Fi and/or GPS antennas can be used with Ranger v4. Specific antenna selection depends on the individual system setup. Contact your Customer Care representative for assistance in selecting an appropriate antenna. To comply with FCC and Industry Canada rules, an external Wi-Fi antenna must be a monopole type with gain of no greater than 5dBi. Use short lengths of low loss cabling whenever possible. Wi-Fi performance is especially susceptible to cable losses. Some important features to consider are: • • • • • Compact construction Durability Weatherproofing Temperature stability Mode of Installation Ground plane style antennas are ideally mounted on the center of a metal vehicle roof. Glass mount antennas should be mounted away from metal objects. When using an adhesive antenna, it is extremely important to make sure that the surface of the mounting location has been thoroughly cleaned. Use isopropyl alcohol to clean the surface just before securing the adhesive pad. 12.3 Cable Routing The bend radius of the antenna coaxial cable depends on the type used. Apply bend radius per the antenna manufacturer's recommendations. Avoid routing the antenna cable in parallel with the vehicle wiring over long distances. Do not coil excess antenna cable slack. 12.3.1 Connectors • • R–SMA - The reverse SMA connector is used for Wi-Fi and requires a 1N-M torque wrench to be properly secured. QMA - The QMA connector is used for GPS and is a snap-on version of the SMA connector. TRADE SECRET.
