Locator Antenna InstallationWebTech Wireless Inc. 3-5 Module 3Locator Antenna InstallationThis section describes the requirements and steps involved to install the GPS and GSM802.11g antennas.Proper antenna location and cabling technique is critical to optimal operation and performance of the Locator. This includes both coverage and throughput performance.Locator Mounting and Placement GuidelinesAvoid heat, e.g. proximity to heaters or ducts, engine exhausts, or direct sunlight.Allow access to the Locator connectors such that the LED is visible (where this is not a covert installation).Protect the mounted Locator from moisture.Place the Locator where physical damage to the unit is minimized, e.g. under the dashboard or in the trunk. Use a clean mounting surface if using Velcro.Mount and secure the Locator with screws and drill the holes.The Locator comes with holes in the flanges to enable mounting.If the installation is covert go to Covert GPS Antenna Installation on page 3-8.
WT5800 Installation Guide3-6 WebTech Wireless Inc.Antenna Installation Dos and Don’tsDOUse only the supplied (or WebTech approved) antennas designed for the correct frequencies.Mount GPS antennas with a maximum view to the sky. Mount antennas outside and on the vehicle roof (where possible).Mount antennas securely. With through-hole installations, confirm the installation is water tight (use silicone sealant).DON'TDon't mount antennas in areas with limited space for a ground plane. Ground planes should provide at least 6" (15cm) of metal in all directions.Don't mount antennas close to another antenna. Provide as much distance between antennas as possible. This includes the GSM802.11g and GPS. Don't mount antennas where they are covered or blocked by metal.Don't mount antennas close to people. Antennas should be mounted where vehicle occupants will be separated from the radiating element by at least 8" inches (20 cm).Don't mount antennas where they are close to electronic management and control systems.Don't mount GPS antennas where they will be on an angle. They should be horizontal to see as much sky as possible.Don't run the GPS antenna cable to the roof of a vehicle through the door. The vehicle door will eventually sever the cable and lose connection between the GPS and Locator.Don't tightly kink or wrap excess cable. Be careful not to trap any cables when refitting trims to the vehicle.Don't over tighten the connection between the antenna and the Locator. Ensure that the antenna is not loose. E.g. hand tighten then use a wrench to tighten another 1/8 of a turn (approximately).
Locator Antenna InstallationWebTech Wireless Inc. 3-7 GPS Antenna InstallationIf the installation is covert also go to Covert GPS Antenna Installation on page 3-8.Important The GPS antenna must be facing up.Figure 3-1 GPS antenna mounted on a roof and facing up to the skyNote Be careful when placing, moving or removing the magnetic-mount antenna. Do not drag it across the metal surface as this will damage the finish of the vehicle.Installing the GPS Antenna1. Determine the optimal location for the GPS antenna. Place and mount the magnetic GPS antenna (square black antenna) on an area of the vehicle where there is no obstruction of the sky, for exampleOn the vehicle roof orUnder a non-metallic dash in a vehicle with a sufficiently sloped windshield.2. Run the antenna cables to meet the Locator. 3. Confirm that the GPS has a fix (solid or flashing green LED) (refer to LED Definitions and Checkpoints on page 4-16).4. Secure the magnetic GPS antenna to the mounting area with adhesive, e.g. silicone. Or consider installing a through-hole mount antenna.5. Secure cables using cable ties and mounts where applicable.
WT5800 Installation Guide3-8 WebTech Wireless Inc.Covert GPS Antenna InstallationImportant Test the GPS thoroughly under operational conditions.Also go to 802.11g Antenna Installation on page 3-9.The following must be considered with respect to the antenna's location. These considerations apply toAll installations where it is essential the GPS antenna is hidden from view.Car and small truck installations where the Locator may be hidden from view and installed under the dashboard or behind the stereo system.Larger trucks with sloped front windscreen or fiberglass rooftop coated with a non-metallic paint. Covert GPS Antenna LocationEnsure the view of the sky is as wide as possible.Ensure the field of view is not obscured by any metallic object (including front windscreens with heating, UV filters or metallic tints). Point the top of the antenna towards the field of view.Enhance signal strength by mounting directly onto metal.Optimal Covert GPS Antenna Mounting LocationsUnder the front or rear window of the vehicle. Under the dash lining.Under a non-metallic parcel shelf.In an instrument or light cluster.

This antenna is adequate for most uses and required for all installations. Use a WebTech approved external high-gain antenna if superior coverage and throughput performance is required.An optional dual-mode (802.11g/GPS) through-hole dome antenna is available through WebTech Wireless Technical Support.Figure 3-2 Correct antenna orientation - vertical to sky
WT5800 Installation Guide4-10 WebTech Wireless Inc.Module 4Electrical Safety & Wiring GuidelinesElectrical SafetyLocate or confirm power sources prior to disconnecting the vehicle battery. Disconnect the vehicle battery prior to making any electrical connections.Important Safety Guidelines Include:Consult the vehicle manufacturer guidelines regarding disconnection of the vehicle battery or when making supplementary electrical connections. Before disconnecting a battery, understand the consequences to that vehicle, e.g. radio codes need to be available and know the reset procedure for airbag systems, ECU's etc.Remove or cover any jewelry if working on live electrical systems.Don't test electrical circuits using a test lamp. Use a high impedance multi-meter with both voltage and resistance ranges.Don't tamper with or disconnect the air bag or SRS electrical harness.
Electrical Safety & Wiring GuidelinesWebTech Wireless Inc. 4-11 Electrical Wiring GuidelinesRead these guidelines before preparing the harness. Use appropriate pick-up points for power wiringImportant Don't splice into individual lines going to other electrical devices that exhibit substantial momentary voltage drops. For example, wires going to heating mirrors or a vehicle's charging indicator are particularly susceptible.If possible wire to a power bar or suitable common terminal connection point. Use a multi-meter to confirm +12 V DC or +24 V DC (9 to 30 Volts) power. Do not use a test lamp.Battery connection (red wire) Ensure uninterrupted power to the Locator (supply voltage under 9Vdc) when the engine is being started.Connect to a continuous +12V DC or +24V DC (9 to 30 Volts) supply. Take from the secondary side of the main distribution fuse from the vehicle battery. Do not share a fused supply to any other equipment.Fuse the line at source to provide protection against shorting of the wiring harness (the Locator is internally protected).Negative Ground (Earth) connection (black wire)Always connect directly to a dedicated earth point within the vehicle electrical system.Use a unique earth point.When required, create a suitable earth point where no corrosion will occur. A duplicate connection with other systems could cause a build up in contact resistance.Supply voltage problems may occur and result in erratic Locator operation. Avoid earth points that also serve engine management ECU, ABS or air bag systems etc.Ignition connection (yellow wire)Important To prevent incorrect operation, ensure the power is not interrupted for more than 5 seconds when the engine is started (supply voltage under 9Vdc).Connection to an ignition signal which goes positive +12V DC or +24V DC (9 to 30 Volts) when the key is in the "run" position and is removed or goes to ground when the key is in the "off" position.
WT5800 Installation Guide4-12 WebTech Wireless Inc.Solder ConnectionsImportant Ring connectors are ONLY acceptable for ground point and when connecting to power bars with screws. No other crimp connectors are acceptable.Wire should be fully inserted into the connector with insulation intact - don't leave bare wire exposed If wires are combined, ensure the connector can handle the resulting gauge. Be sure to crimp connectors properly with the correct sized crimp tool. Confirm the physical connection is solid. Solder the wire to the crimped connection. Use toothed washers where bolting connectors to the vehicle. Make sure the ground connection is solid and reliable.Ensure wiring is correctIt is critical that the ignition wire is connected to the vehicle ignition wire and not to the battery.Don't Use Quick TapsQuick taps Are not good for critical power supply connections.Cut into the connected wire, reducing the life of the wire and reducing its voltage and current handling capabilities.Increase the risk of corrosion and crush-type wiring failures.Note Vehicle vibrations will eventually separate a quick tapped wire from the Locator, losing connection to the unit.Don't leave cut wires exposedCheck for accidentally cut wires, which can damage vehicle wiring or devices, and cause a fire. Tape or heat-shrink all wire cuts so there is no risk of shorting or corrosion. If a splice is necessary, strip-away a small portion of the insulation, solder the wires then protect by using electrical tape to re-insulate. Don't leave free connector contacts or pins exposed. Tape or properly terminate all connectors.
Electrical Safety & Wiring GuidelinesWebTech Wireless Inc. 4-13 Route cables properlyNever put cabling where it will be stepped on, e.g. under rugs or mats. Never wire in areas that will retain moisture. E.g. insulation under the carpet holds water and can be damp, making wiring connections highly susceptible to corrosion. Never put cable where a passenger or driver's feet rest on top of the wires. Never run the GPS antenna cable to the roof of a vehicle through the door. The vehicle door will eventually sever the cable. Where possible secure wiring in the wiring channel provided by the vehicle manufacturer. Use split looms and grommets where appropriate. Tie wrap and tape cables (or cable tie mounts) to keep secure.

Terminology and BackgroundWebTech Wireless Inc. A-1 Appendix ATerminology and BackgroundThis section provides an overview of WLAN terminology that will assist with the configuration of a WebTech Wireless Locator to a WLAN. It is not intended to provide users with in-depth instructions to set up a WLAN.What are WIFI, WLAN and WAP?WI FI is the name for a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN). WIFI communication technology is synonymous with the IEEE 802.11 family of wireless networking standards, which includes the three established standards 802.11b, 802.11a and 802.11g. The WT5800 Locator uses the 802.11g standard.A Wireless Access Point (WAP) is a component of a WLAN. It is a device that connects wireless communication devices to a broadband router (Router).Important The WLAN must be set up prior to configuring the Locator(s) and before vehicle installation.Note Follow the manufacturer's instructions to set up the WAP Router. An internet connection is required for the Router setup and it needs the DHCP server enabled, with default firewall settings recommended.Note To maximize a WLAN signal range requires several placement considerations, e.g. the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects may limit the range of the signal. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and background RF (radio frequency) noise. Refer to the Manufacturer's instructions for more information.
WT5800 Installation GuideA-2 WebTech Wireless Inc.What is a HyperTerminal?Note These instructions apply to a HyperTerminal operating in a Windows XP environment.HyperTerminal is a software communications program that is standard with the installation of a Microsoft Windows operating system. It is a tool used to connect other computers and devices together. The HyperTerminal is also used for testing modems and other terminal equipment, in this case, the WT5800 Locator.Why Is the Locator Configured to the WAP (the Router)?The Locator collects information using GPS technology. This information is stored on the Locator until it is transmitted to the Webtech Wireless Quadrant server. The WLAN enables this transmission of data. The Locator must identify the correct WAP device (the Router) to which the data will be transmitted. The unique identifier (SSID) and the corresponding encryption (WEP) enable the two devices to communicate with each other. See Set up and Open HyperTerminal on page B-1 for more information.What is a Service Set Identifier (SSID)?Each device in a wireless network MUST use the same SSID or the wireless network will not function properly.The Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the unique name assigned to the wireless network. The SSID in the Router has a factory default setting.Important Hackers know wireless factory defaults.Change the SSID default to a unique identifier and change it periodically.Disable SSID broadcast.While setting up the Router, write down the new and unique SSID for use during Locator configuration.If the unique SSID is lost or forgotten, consult the Router manual to find out how to recover or change it.
Terminology and BackgroundWebTech Wireless Inc. A-3 What is Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)?Each device in a wireless network MUST use the same WEP key or the wireless network will not function properly.Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a method of encrypting network data transmitted on a wireless network. The WEP encryption key must be set (and matched) in both the Router and in the Locator. This is done through HyperTerminal (refer to Configuring the Locator(s) Using HyperTerminal on page B-4).The Locator uses two encryption types. 1. WEP 64-bit encryption requires an entry of exactly 10 hexadecimal characters (the HEX key). 2. WEP 128-bit encryption requires an entry of exactly 26 hexadecimal characters (the HEX key).Valid HEX key characters are "0" to "9" and "A" to "F".While setting up the Router, write down the new and unique WEP key for use during Locator configuration.If the unique WEP key is lost or forgotten, a new one must be set up on the Router.
WT5800 Installation GuideB-1 WebTech Wireless Inc.Appendix B Set Up & Configure the Locator With HyperTerminalThis section applies to an infrastructure network installation and not ad-hoc data mode.
