CAUTION : Be careful not to accidental swap the GSM and GPS connectors. The device will not
function if the antennas are swapped. In order to comply with RF exposure
requirements, install the antenna so that a distance minimum of 20 cm can be
maintained between the antenna and persons.
To connect the FAL-ANT-14 combined GSM/3G/GNSS antenna to the FOX3-KMD device:
✔ Plug the Bordeaux connectors together and Blue connectors together.
To remove the FAL-ANT-14 GSM/3G/GNSS antenna from FOX3-KMD device:
✔ Press down the latches on the antenna connectors and then pull the antennas.
Do not mount the antenna visible on the dashboard but mount it in a location underneath the dashboard. Hiding
the antenna is key to successful security in the event of theft. FOX3-KMD devices generate events in case of the
GNNS antenna is connected, disconnected or cut off. If an intruder cuts off the GNNS antenna cable, an event is
generated which can be used to trigger alarm notifications to the user.
