Installing the Mobile Collection 2.x System
Hardware Installation Guide 43
8. Lift the GoBook III screen up and gently push it back so that it rests on the Mobile
Collector screen rest.
Attach the GoBook MAX to the Vehicle Dock
As part of an optional remote installation, you may attach the GoBook MAX to a vehicle
dock on a pedestal near the driver. The vehicle dock should be pre-installed. Refer to the
Itronix Vehicle Cradle Installation Guide for detailed instructions.
The Itronix documentation refers to the laptop receptacle as a cradle; Itron uses
the term dock to identify this piece of equipment. The term dock is used repeatedly
throughout this manual; however, dock and cradle are interchangeable.
To attach the GoBook MAX to the vehicle dock
1. Angle the top of the GoBook MAX and center on the vehicle dock mounting guides,
then lower it so that the two rear locking mechanisms on the vehicle dock top fit into
the mating holes on the GoBook MAX underside.
2. Lower the GoBook MAX onto the vehicle dock within the mounting guides until the
underside of the GoBook MAX is flush with the top of the vehicle dock.
3. Insert the key into the mounting lock.
4. Press the locking mechanism so it engages the GoBook MAX.
5. Turn the key clockwise to lock the GoBook MAX in place.
Remove the key from the lock so that it is not accidently broken or stolen.
6. Plug the vehicle dock cable into a vehicle dock USB port. Two USB ports are located
on the back of the vehicle dock.
7. Plug the vehicle dock cable into the Mobile Collector radio by pulling the SMA
connector sleeve back, plugging the connector in to the Mobile Collector as shown,
and releasing the sleeve.
