Install Asset-Link so that the connector is accessible (after installation) for
maintenance and servicing. Access to the connector is a diagnostic
requirement.
When selecting a location consider both the ease of mounting and the
environmental conditions that the Asset-Link will be subjected to. The Asset-Link
was FCC certified for operation from –30 to +70°C but has been field tested for
operations down to –40°C, there will be a degradation in the efficiency of the
transmitter and an increase in power consumption at these low temperatures.
When operating at extreme temperatures the battery charger will not operate with
equal efficiency either – most sealed lead acid batteries (SLA) accept very little
charging current below –10°C. Consider mounting the unitand the battery in the
vehicle if continuous operation below these 0°C (32°F) is anticipated.
