External
GSM Antenna
For
fringe recepetions areas we recommend the use of an external antenna.
This is an on-glass 8 dB gain antenna which is virtually unnoticable.
Optional external antenna pack
Installation
Installing
Carminder can be as easy as connecting just two wires. However
if you are wanting to take full advantage of the available features
then you will need to connect up to 9 wires.
Outputs
Outputs
used for controlling things such as central locking must be connected
to the negative terminal of a 12V (100mA max) automotive relay.
Inputs
Arm
and Alarm inputs can be connected directly to your existing alarm
system or directly to ignition and sensors. Panic input can be
connected to a momentary push switch or even to an airbag / impact
sensor.
Backup
Battery
It
is highly advisable to install a SLA (Sealed Lead Acid)
backup battery. This will ensure that the Carminder will continue
to operate if an intruder manages to disconnect your vehicles
battery.
GPS Antenna
Install
the GPS antenna as high up under dash as poosible. The GPS receiver
will work through plastic and fibre glass but not metal.
