* It is strongly recommended to connect a separate flyback diode across the high inductive loads (e.g. relay). For details, refer to the connection
diagram shown in Figure 10.

The indices of these inputs and outputs and information how to use this CAN interface can be found in the manual
"AVL_PFAL_Configuration_Command_Set.pdf" and "AppNote_CAN_FMS_CAN_OBDII_Howto.pdf".
7.6. Mounting
FOX3-2G/3G/4G offer different mounting possibilities, depending on the kind of the antenna used.
1. When installing one of FOX3-2G/3G/4G with internal antennas, please make sure the FOX3-2G/3G/4G' back
side with the text "THIS SIDE TO SKY" is facing up to the sky, with no metal objects above or under the device
case that can interfere with GPS reception.
2. When installing a FOX3-2G/3G/4G with external antennas, there are two connectors on the device for
connecting a GPS/GNSS antenna such as FAL-ANT-11 (shown in figure below) or FAL-ANT-12. During the
installation, please make sure the receiving side of the GSM/GPS antenna is up, with no metal object above or
under the antenna and device that interfere with GPS reception.
Each of FOX3-2G/3G/4G provide 8 holes to be attached to suitable locations (see figure below). It can be mounted in
different directions and different locations such as on wall or in vehicle. Fasteners can be Hexagon head with collar
self drilling screws DIN 7504 K, ST3.5 x 32(12) mm and different length. There are no screws included in the delivery
pack. More detailed information how to install the device in the vehicle, refer to the application note
"AppNotes_AVL_Installation_Guide.pdf".
FOX3-2G/3G/4G are NOT waterproof or sealed devices. Care must be taken to ensure the devices are kept away from
water or any other liquids.
