Mounting the Phoenix

Caution: The touchpanel consists of a plastic film covering glass. Use care when handling the Phoenix during

mounting to avoid damage to the touch panel. Physical damage to the panel is NOT COVERED BY THE

WARRANTY.

Add Mounting Base to Unit

Lay the Phoenix on a flat surface with padding to protect the touchpanel (the bag the unit is shipped in works well for this).

If you ordered a Keyboard mount, lay one of the flanged plates from the keyboard mount on the back of the unit with the

flanges bent towards the unit. The ball on the base is offset from the center of the base so consider which way the offset

should be arranged for the mounting distance needed. Use the four 1/4-20 x 1/2” screws included with the unit and using a

with a 5/32 hex driver (not included) tighten sedcurly.

Figure 4 without keyboard mount Figure 5 with keyboard mount

Assemble the mounting arm

The mounting arm comes unassembled. Put the parts together as shown in Figure xx and tighten the nut 2-3 turns. Then

place the arm on the ball of the base on the back of the unit with the spring side of the arm furtherest away from the unit

Figure 6 Figure 7

Page 8

Mount the base to the vehicle

Select the location on the vehicle for the mount base. For the rail base, insert one screw through the two base parts and turn

on the lock nut finger tight. Hold the base up to the post or rail selected, and insert the second bolt through the base. Swing

the back plate around and over the bolt. Turn the second lock nut on finger tight. Tighten the bolts with a 3/16” hex driver

(not included).

Mount the unit to the vehicle

Hold the Phoenix by the junction of the arm and the base on the back of the unit. Lift the assembly to the base on the

vehicle. Open the arm until the end slides over the ball on that base. Tighten the wing nut firmly.

Once the Phoenix is attached, it can adjusted by holding the bottom of the Phoenix, loosening the wing nut on the arm by 1

turn moving the Phoenix to the desired position and re-tightening the wing nut on the arm.

ALWAYS hold the Phoenix before loosening the arm. Failure to hold the Phoenix can cause it to swing down

suddenly and may cause injury or damage the unit !

Mounting the Keyboard

Attach the long end of the two flat side supports to the flanged base on the Phoenix using four of the 8-32 screws and lock

washers provided in the keyboard mount kit. A 3/32” hex driver is required (not included). Attach the second flanged plate

to the short end of the sides with the flanges down using the four 8-32 screws and lock washers. Attach the keyboard to the

mount using the four remaining 8-32 screws and lock washers. See Figure 8.

Plug the USB cable into the top USB port on the Phoenix. Slide the USB cable into the slot in the USB cable retainer.

Position the cable retainer on the underside of the Phoenix and loosely insert the two ¼-32” screws provided. Push the

retainer firmly against the USB connector and tighten the two screws. See Figure 9.

Figure 8 Figure 9 Figure 10

Secure the keyboard cable under the keyboard mount using the 2 wire ties provided. See Figure 10.

Page 9

Attaching the Phoenix to Power

For the Phoenix to operate, you must provide power from the vehicle DC power supply (12V –48V) or from an AC/DC

power supply.

Vehicle Connection

For vehicles with 12 to 48VDC power available, the Phoenix should be connected directly to the battery or to a main power

connection. Consult your vehicle manufacturer or local representative for the best location to connect to power.

1. First run the cable from the Phoenix to the power connection location and secure the cable at several points with

wire ties. Leave a little slack at the Phoenix to allow for mount adjustment and for the cable to be disconnected

from the Phoenix.

2. Disconnect the power cable from the Phoenix.

3. Either cut off any excess cable or coil the excess in a convenient location and secure with wire ties.

4. Strip enough of the outside jacket to allow the positive and negative connections to reach.

5. Strip ¼” from the Black wire and crimp to a correct size wire lug to allow connection to the power source ground

terminal.

6. Strip ¼” from the Brown wire and crimp to a correct size wire lug to allow connection to the vehicle chassis.

7. Strip ¼” from the Blue wire and from both ends of the fuse holder.

8. Crimp the cable splice onto the Blue wire and one end of the fuse holder.

9. Select the correct size wire lug to allow connection to the positive terminal of the power source and crimp onto the

other end of the fuse holder.

10. Connect all wires to the proper source.

11. Connect the cable to the Phoenix. The unit will boot up at this point.

3. Positive Supply

4. Negative Supply

5. Chassis Ground

6. Blue wire

7. Black Wire

The fuse holder comes with a 2A fuse (Littlefuse 0312002.HXP) installed for use with 24/36/48 V vehicles. For installation

on a 12V vehicle, replace the 2A fuse with the 5A fuse (Littlefuse 0312005.HXP) provided.

Fixed Mount Power Supply

For desk or wall mount applications, order the AC power supply (P/N 91_18V_65W). Simply connect the power supply to

the unit.

Backup Power System

The Phoenix contains a backup battery that has enough capacity to support the suspend state for at least 30 minutes. When

power is restored to the Phoenix, it resumes the state it was in when the power was removed.

An internal charger automatically charges the backup battery within 4 hours when external power is supplied. When

installing the Phoenix leave it connected to power for 4 hours to recharge the backup battery.

Page 10

Status LED

The Phoenix uses three brightness levels on the green status LED to indicate the status of power and operation.

Installing an External Antenna

If you purchased external dipole antennas, simply screw them onto the two connectors on the top of the unit.

If you purchased a roof mount external antenna, follow the instructions included with the antenna.

Connecting a Scanner

Connecting a tethered Scanner

You can attach a tethered scanner to one of the serial or USB ports on the Phoenix. Be sure to order your scanner with the

appropriate cable.

USB Scanner

1. Loosen the screws on the USB retainer and move the retainer away from the USB connector.

2. Plug the cable into one of the USB ports. Depending on the scanner you are attaching, you may hear a series of

beeps and the Good Read light may flash.

3. Slide the USB retainer toward the connector until it is firmly against the USB connector. Tighten the two screws.

Serial Scanner

1. The serial ports can supply either 5V or 12V power on pin 9 of the connector. The factory default is 5V on COM1

and 12V on COM2. Verify which voltage the scanner requires.

2. If necessary, attach the cable to the tethered scanner.

3. Attach the scanner RS-232 cable to one of the COM connectors on the Phoenix. Depending on the scanner you are

attaching, you may hear a series of beeps and the Good Read light may flash. Tighten the screws to make sure the

cable stays attached during use.

4. See the Users guide to configure the serial ports to work with the scanner.

You can also use Bluetooth scanners with the Phoenix. For more information, see the Phoenix Users Manual.
