Introduction

Satellites are in a 12-hour orbit at 12,000 miles above the earth. There are 24

satellites in the system and generally there are at least 5 satellites orbiting

overhead at any one time. The GPS 210 Series relies on the signal from mul-

tiple satellites to determine its location on earth. The satellite signal is received

via the combination GPS / Cellular antenna supplied with the GPS 210 Series.

This antenna must be installed in a location with an unobstructed view to the

outside of the vehicle to receive signals from these satellites. This network cov-

ers virtually the entire population of U.S, Canada,and Mexico that is within

reach of a cellular network.

General Safety

This installation manual covers the installation of the GPS 210 Series. This

manual is for the professional and novice installer and should be used to

ensure a safe and functional install of the GPS 210 Series. The following infor-

mation should be noted with respect to operating the GPS 210 Series in vari-

ous environments, since the cellular transceiver component works through RF

(Radio Frequency).

Vehicles Equipped with AirBags

• DO NOT place objects, including communication equipment, in the area

over the airbag or in the air bag deployment area.

• If the communications equipment is improperly installed and the airbag

inflates, this could cause serious injury.

• Contact the vehicle manufacturer's corporate headquarters, if necessary,

for specific airbag information for the vehicle.

• DO NOT run cables under the area reserved for the driver’s feet.

Damage to equipment

• DO NOT install components that have been dropped, even if they appear

to be functional.

• Internal damage is likely to occur.

Basic Tools Needed for Installation

• Metric and standard socket set

• Screwdriver set

• Side cutters, wire cutters

• Knife or box cutter

• Wire strippers

• Hand Crimper for insulated terminals

• Pliers

• Electrical tape

• Automotive upholstery or trim remover

• Flashlight or trouble light

• Cordless drill with accessories

• Assorted common bit set

• Palm210 with Palm LS210 Serial Cable

• Digital Multimeter (recommended), or 12 volt test light

It is strongly recommended that a Digital Multimeter be used when probing

electrical systems in the vehicle to avoid any damage to computers or airbag

systems.

Antenna

Antenna location is critical to the operation of the system. The antenna provid-

ed is a combined GPS/RF antenna. The GPS/RF combined antenna must be

mounted flat with the GPS receiver facing up (square portion on antenna). The

antenna does not require a ground plane to function properly.

Stealth Antenna Mounting

The best location for a stealth installation is beneath the rear speaker deck

panel or below the front window concealed in the dash of the vehicle. The

GPS/RF combination antenna will work best if it has a clear view to the sky and

as much of the horizon as possible. Any metallic objects between the antenna

and the satellites will degrade the signal and reduce the overall performance.

• The GPS signals will travel through the clear glass but will be reduced if

the window has any metallic coating or tint applied.

• The antenna must be mounted securely so that it does not become a pro-

jectile in an accident or move during normal operation.

The GPS 210 Series Device

The GPS 210 Series may be installed in any type of 12-volt vehicle. The unit

should be mounted so it will not be exposed to damage from people or objects.

The GPS 210 Series has four mounting holes. Use nylon tie straps to firmly

mount the GPS 210 Series. Some examples of mounting locations include

under the dash above the knee bolster, under the centre console, side kick

panel and behind the glove compartment. The backup battery should be

mounted in the same manner, close to the GPS 210 Series.

Connecting the Power Harness

Main Harness

Orange 12 Volts Constant

Green 12 Volts Constant

Blue 12 Volts Ignition

Black (X2) Ground

Green/Yellow Test (not used)

The following wires require connection to the vehicle wiring harness.

• Constant Power Wires (orange and green) +12VDC when the key is

removed from the ignition.

Note: There are two fuses inline.

• 5 amp fuse for constant power

• Ignition Sense Wire (Blue) +12VDC when the key is in the “Run/On” posi-

tion only.

• Ground Wire (Black) to a metal surface on the vehicle frame or kick panel.

• A good ground connection must be established for the GPS 210 Series to

operate properly. Resistance to ground is the main cause of failure.

• Ensure the location you choose for your ground connection is made of

metal, not plastic.

• Scrape away any paint on the vehicle ground to make a clean mounting

surface.

Feature Module

The GPS 210 Series uses a feature module to control external features such

as:

• Starter Disable, Door Unlock, and Alarm trigger notification.
