General Installation Information
Consider the following information while planning a TT210 system installation.
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Qualcomm could void the user’s
authority to operate this equipment
Verify the Trailer/Container Is in Good Condition
Before beginning an installation:
• Thoroughly evaluate the area prior to installation to ensure the area where the installation
will take place is in good condition. Determine if the TT210 system can be installed on the
trailer/container. The following are some deterrents that can impact an installation or result
in additional procedures:
- The trailer/container-nose plywood goes all the way to the roof.
- The vertical support rails are too narrowly placed.
- There is obvious and extreme damage to the trailer/container nose at the TT210
system installation area.
• The trailer/container top rail above the 7-way should be flat and free of bends or deep
dents.
• The trailer skin above the 7-way, about an inch from the top rail, should be sturdy and free
of any serious damage.
• The 7-way connection points should be inspected for general cleanliness and corrosion.
• Verify that there is voltage on pin 7 and at all 7-way connection points when external power
is applied.
Survey the Trailer/Container
Survey the trailer/container and decide where exactly to install the hardware. Typically in dry
van installations, the terminal is in the 7-way bay and the cargo sensor is in the adjacent bay.
Terminal and Cables
Make sure that the TT210 system terminal and cable locations do not hinder normal operation
or maintenance of the trailer/container. Also make sure the TT210 system terminal and
cables are installed and/or stored safely out of the way of possible damage by cargo or other
factors.
What to Consider Before Installing the System
• Drill holes only when necessary and in concurrence with the customer.
• Qualcomm recommends you use existing holes on the trailer/container for cable routing
whenever possible.
• Use silicone (RTV) sealant when necessary to prevent leakage.
