Mounting the Shadow Tracker™ unit
The Shadow Tracker™ unit is NOT weather proof and must be
mounted inside the vehicles passenger compartment. The
unit must NOT be placed in direct sunlight. The
recommended mounting location is under the dashboard, but
the unit may be mounted anywhere inside the vehicles
passenger compartment out of direct sunlight.
Connecting the Antenna to the unit
Connect the included GPS antenna to the port located on the
rear of the Shadow Tracker™ unit labeled Antenna. Be careful
not to bend the antenna connector when connecting or
disconnecting it from the Shadow Tracker™ unit.
Placing the Antenna
The antenna is attached to the vehicle with the included
magnetic mount. Antenna placement is critical for the best
performance. The antenna requires an unobstructed view of
the sky for accurate satellite acquisition. Recommended
placement for the GPS antenna is on top of the vehicle with a
clear view of the sky. You may choose to mount the antenna
'out of sight'. Keep in mind that the antenna will obtain a
stronger, less disrupted signal if it is mounted under plastic
or glass rather than covered by metal.
