•
Suitable mounting hardware (not supplied)—for mounting
Locator to a vertical surface, such as a cart: screws, double-sided
tape or cable ties.
Installation Considerations
Considerations
Installation
•
Position the Locator vertically with the antennas pointing
upwards—The supplied stand angles the Locator at approximately 70°. Do not mount the Locator at a lower angle if mounting to a solid surface, and never lay the Locator flat.
•
Keep the antennas away from metal—If mounting the Locator
to a metal cart, ensure that the antennas project above the frame
of the cart. Do not lean the Locator against a metal object.
•
For best performance, place the Locator in an unobstructed
location—Where possible, keep the Locator away from the body
or large objects.
•
Performance may not be optimal while the Locator is being
charged—The Locator continues to operate while the batteries
are charging, but performance may not be optimal. Keep the
power cord away from the antennas to improve performance.

Steady flashes
Batteries are low. Recharge immediately. The
Locator will continue to receive tag messages
for a further 20-30 minutes, and will then shut
down. (All data are saved).
On
Error. Connect to the Client PC to automatically
download firmware.
3 Attach the two antennas.
The antennas use a BNC connector. Push the antenna onto the
mast, and give it a ¼ turn clockwise to secure it.
Note: The antennas have a protective covering to prevent them
from touching metal. Do not encase, wrap, or otherwise cover
the antennas.
4 Install the mounting plate using one of the following methods.
A Fasten to the stand using the three screws supplied.
B Install to a vertical surface using mounting hardware appro5
priate to the surface material, such as screws, double-sided
tape or cable ties.
Install the Locator to the mounting plate.
Slide the Locator into the mounting plate. If desired, the Locator
can be secured by inserting a small lock or cable tie through the
top hole on the mounting plate and Locator.

Plug the Locator into a 120 VAC outlet using the supplied AC
adapter. The CHARGING light will remain on until the charge is
complete. A full charge takes 3 hours, providing approximately 24
hours of operation.
The Locator should be charged every few months when not in use
to maximize battery life.
Warning: Only charge the Locator using the supplied adapter. Failure
to do so may cause the battery to become hot, explode or ignite and
cause serious injury.
