Installation
The design of the IQ3 greatly simplifies the installation process, as there is no external data
logger or related components necessary. However, there are basic guidelines that must be
followed, in order to insure correct operation of the product.
Mounting Location
The IQ3 is designed to be utilized in a race vehicle environment and as designed as such.
However, there are external conditions that can influence the operation and longevity of the
product.
Heat
Avoid excessive heat, such as generated from exhaust systems, transmissions, etc.
Electrical Interference
Avoid electrical interference. Race vehicles
generate electrical interference from a variety of locations such as ignitions, alternators, ECU,
spark plugs, coils and radio/telemetry antennas. This interference can affect the data generated
by any or all of the sensors.
Moisture
Avoid excessive moisture. The logger is designed to be water resistant but not waterproof. If
washing the vehicle, cover before washing. Wipe any remaining moisture off of the IQ3, when
finished. Protect the microSD card slot from moisture.
Easy Access
Do not mount the IQ3 in a location that makes it difficult to access the memory card or any
connectors.
Movement
It is important to insure the IQ3 cannot become dislodged during use. Three #10 studs are
provided in order to provide secure mounting.
