EDU and Holster Installation Procedures
Selecting a Location
The EDU has a 15-line LCD screen and a holster that holds and protects the unit when it’s not in use.
The most common holster installation location is the dashboard, closer to the passenger-side seat (see
the following illustration). Consider the following when choosing an exact installation location:
• The owner’s preference
• Whether there is a team or a single driver
• Whether there is enough clearance to easily lift the unit out of the holster
Note
If the map box or glove compartment is the chosen holster location, measure to make sure that the
driver can open the compartment after the unit is installed.
Installing the EDU Holster
Follow these steps to install the EDU Holster:
1.
Decide if you need to use the holster backing plate.
Note
The holster comes with an optional backing plate (MCN 50-2758) that can be mounted on the back
side of the mounting surface. If the mounting surface is not strong enough to support the weight of the
EDU (total weight 3.06 lbs.), use the backing plate.
Tie wrap the cable
for strain relief.
