INSTALLATION OF TRACKER
Once all three units are operational and provisioned after verifying the
Check-in/OK messages have been delivered correctly, they can be placed
in their desired permanent locations. For permanent installations, ensure
the appropriate connectors (screws…etc.) are used to avoid any damage
to the vessel.
Although it is recommended to install the tracker in a concealed location,
it should also be located in a place where the user can push the SOS
button if required. Consider placement of the Tracker where the pitch
and roll of the vessel is at a minimum.
Installation 15
1. Line power should be able to reach the Tracker with the included power
cable (6 ft/1.8m). Use the double-sided adhesive tape for temporary
mounting of the Tracker during the testing phase. Simply place the
tape on the bottom of the Tracker mounting bracket and stick it to your
installation surface.
2. Test the unit to ensure it can receive GPS signals and transmit
messages from the selected location by pressing the Check-in/OK
button so that the Check-in/OK message is sent to the desired chosen
location, such as an SMS to your mobile phone.
3. Remove the Tracker mounting bracket,
included, and mark the four holes with
a pencil before drilling the holes into
the surface. Carefully align the mounting
bracket where the holes are marked and
use a screwdriver to fasten the four
screws onto the surface. As an option
to using screws, tie wraps can be used
in the four corner holes on the Tracker.
Be sure that the Tracker is mounted
securely and the satellite arrow logo
remains pointing to the sky at all times.
4. Slide the Tracker unit into the Tracker mounting bracket.
5. Attach optional line power to a 12 V or 24 V battery.

SPOT HUG USER MANUAL
NOTE: Since SPOT HUG is a theft prevention device and needs
to be hidden from plain sight, it is important to note that the
HUG Tracker unit be installed under an RF transparent material
(e.g. fiberglass, wood, plastic less than 3 inches thick) and
with the antenna facing up to the sky (logo side). The arrow
logo on the side of the Tracker must be mounted in a position
where the arrow is facing up in order to receive GPS signals
and send satellite messages with optimal efficiency. The
Tracker should be installed away from any satellite interference
mediums, such as metallic objects and other transmitters such
as Wi-Fi or other RF devices. HUG devices should be at least 12
inches away from other GPS and electronic devices.
