Mounting on a Dashboard or Horizontal Surface
The diagram below illustrates a typical installation where the vehicle
computer is mounted on a dashboard or hortizontal flat surface.
Routing Electrical Cables
• Establish a neat route for the cable, staying clear of moving parts or
hot surfaces wherever possible.
• Fix the cable to existing cable runs inside the vehicle using cable ties,
but make sure they are away from any moving or hot surfaces.
• When the cabling must go through a panel, use a suitable gland.
• When fixing the conduit or cable on the outside of a vehicle, use
P-Clips. Either drill and tap the hole or use a nut and bolt to secure the
clip.
• Make sure the cable does not have tight bends. The minimum
recommended radius is 2.5".
• Solder all fuse holders. DO NOT crimp.
• After soldering the fuse holder, file the solder flat where it comes in
contact with the fuse.
• On electric vehicles, take the power from as close to the battery as
possible, but not directly from the battery terminals, and not before
any main fuse.
