Mounting the Control Center
The Control Center position should be discussed with the vehicle owner
prior to installation, since the antenna may be visible to the vehicle’s
operator. The best location for the Control Center is centered high on
the front windshield. For optimal range, the Control Center should be
mounted vertically. It can be mounted horizontally in relation to the
windshield or under the dashboard away from metal, but range will be
diminished. AM/FM radio antennas embedded in the vehicle glass,
metallic window tint or dot matrix (small black dots at top of windshield)
can also affect range when determining the mounting location.
After determining the best mounting location, follow these steps:
1. Clean the mounting area with a quality glass cleaner or alcohol to
remove any dirt or residue.
2. Plug the Control Center cable into the Control Center.
3. Mount the Control Center using the supplied double-sided tape.
4. Route the Control Center cable to the control module and plug it
into the 6-pin connector.

Important: To achieve the best possible range, DO NOT leave the
antenna cable bundled under the dash. Always extend the cable full
length during installation, regardless of the antenna mounting location.
