Connections for in-vehicle use
Place the mag-mount antenna on the roof of the vehicle and connect the
antenna lead to the connector on top of the Patroller. Connect the external
power lead to the Patroller and plug into the cigar lighter socket of the vehicle.
Connections for hand-held use
Connect the short antenna to the top of the Patroller. Clip on the carry strap.
Connection to a Printer (optional)
The Patroller uses plain text printing and requires a printer that will support
this. Most dot matrix, inkjet and laser printers will, but Windows Printing
System (WPS) printers will not. Check the printer specifications to see that it
supports printing from MS-DOS.
Connect the printer lead to the Communications port. The lead supplied is
terminated with a 9 pin serial connector suitable for most printers with a serial
port. For printers with a parallel port, a serial-to-parallel converter is available.
Connection to a PC (optional)
Connect the PC lead to the Patroller Communications port, and then to one of
the 9-way COM ports on the PC.
