Note: You may provide your own power supply, but it must supply 12-15V at 1 Amp and must be limited
to less than 250VA (Watts). If you chose to provide your own, you are still required to purchase the battery
adapter cable and battery adapter for final connection to the A500 or T5-Series device.
Note: This configuration does not require you to connect the A500 or T5-Series device to the vehicle's
power source. If desired, for operational reasons, A500 or T5-Series devices may be used in VMT
configuration using a Vocollect battery.
Positioning the Talkman A500/T5 VMT
• Determine the best position for the device and all the associated components. If a similar device was
previously installed, check to see if the position it used is suitable for the device.
• Test the installation for at least 30 minutes before installing on another vehicle. Record all details:
• Check that the position of the device does not obstruct vehicle controls.
• Check that the device does not obstruct the driver's view.
• Check the position of the device for user comfort over long periods.
