Typical Installation
Mounting Instructions
1. Attach and secure the desired mounting bracket to the highest point on the safety
cage, following these precautions:
• The plate must be mounted so the antenna is not damaged while the vehicle or
any of its parts are moving.
• The antenna mounting portion of the bracket must be parallel to the floor.
• If using two antennas, they must be mounted at least 12 inches (304.8mm) apart.
2. Attach the female connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna connector on the
vehicle mounted Thor VM3.
3. Secure the whip antenna to the mounting bracket.
4. Connect the antenna cable to the whip antenna.
5. Use cable ties to secure the coaxial cable to the vehicle as necessary. Make sure the
cable is routed so it is not damaged by any moving parts of the vehicle.
6. Connect the cable to the antenna connector (Wi-Fi Main or Wi-Fi Aux) on the Thor
VM3. If only one antenna is used, be sure to connect it to the Wi-Fi Main connector.
7. Repeat the steps above for the second 802.11 antenna.
