A typical installation includes:
1. Mounting the computer (refer to “Mounting The 8570” on page 52).
2. Connecting the external antenna, if applicable (refer to “External
Antennas” on page 59).
3. Installing the power accessories (refer to “Power Options” on page 60).
Notes:
1. Make sure that the unit is mounted inside the roll cage of the vehicle.
2. The bolts used for all installations are SAE 1/4-20.
4.2.4.1 Attaching The Mounting Bracket
The 8570 can be attached to several types of mount: the Universal Dual Ball and
Socket Mount (page 48), a pedestal mount (page 50), or it can be attached jointly to
the Keyboard Mount and either of the other two items (Figure 4.3 on page 53).
To attach the 8570 to any of these mounting devices, Mounting Bracket PN 31658
must be used. Align the four holes on the bottom of the computer with those on the
Mounting Bracket (Figure 4.2 on page 53), and attach using the screws and washers
provided with the assembly.
