Choosing a Location
Choose a location for the EchoLDX where the display is easy to view
and the keypad is readily accessible. When selecting a location, avoid
exposure to extreme environmental conditions, including:
• Excessive heat or cold
• High vibration
• Corrosive fluids and gases
• Wet or damp locations
Avoiding these conditions will improve the EchoLDX's performance
and will ensure long-term reliability.
All standard external connections to the EchoLDX are made through
the connector (marked as 2) on the bottom of the unit.

Mounting the Pedestal and Installing the Echo LDX
The EchoLDX can be attached to any flat surface using the mounting
assembly. When positioning the assembly on the mounting surface,
allow sufficient clearance beneath the EchoLDX for the Power/Data
cable and on the right side of the unit for the maintenance and
upgrade cable.
To mount the pedestal:
1. In the vehicle, select a mounting surface for the pedestal and
temporarily place the MDT at the top on the pedestal. Ensure
that the MDT is accessible by all possible operators.
2. Verify that there is clearance behind the mounting surface for
the mounting screws. Choose the appropriate screws to install
the pedestal to the mounting surface—either sheet metal screws
or machine screws with lock nuts.
3. Remove the MDT from the top of the pedestal.
