Antenna Installation Dos and Don’ts
DO
‰ 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).

GPS Antenna Installation
If 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
Note
GPS antenna mounted on a roof and facing up to the sky
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 Antenna
1.
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 Guide
Covert GPS Antenna Installation
Important
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.

Electrical Safety & Wiring Guidelines
Electrical Safety
Locate 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.
4-10
WebTech Wireless Inc.
Electrical Safety & Wiring Guidelines
Electrical Wiring Guidelines
Read these guidelines before preparing the harness.
Use appropriate pick-up points for power wiring
Important
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.
WebTech Wireless Inc.
4-11
WT5800 Installation Guide
Solder Connections
Important
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 correct
It is critical that the ignition wire is connected to the
vehicle ignition wire and not to the battery.
Don't Use Quick Taps
Quick 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.
4-12
WebTech Wireless Inc.
Electrical Safety & Wiring Guidelines
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 Background
Appendix A
Terminology and Background
This 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.
WebTech Wireless Inc. A-1
WT5800 Installation Guide
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.
A-2
WebTech Wireless Inc.
Terminology and Background
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.
