, r e s U K 0 T G Geoforce Inc., All Rights Reserved 2 GT0 Installation and Mounting Guide helpdesk@geoforce.com - http://help.geoforce.com Step 1: Selecting a Mounting Location To ensure ideal performance please consider the following:
1. Select a mounting location that provides the best view of the sky. 2. A horizontal mounting position (lying flat, facing skyward). 3. Mount on the flattest and hardest surface possible. 4. Select a mounting location that isolates the GT0 from damage. 5. Recommended mounting area size is 7L x 4W. 6. Thoroughly clean the mounting area. Step 2: Record the Asset and GT0 Serial Numbers 1. Record the GT0 serial number. 2. Record the asset serial number (on which the GT0 was installed). 3. Send this information to your Geoforce account administrator. Step 3: Selecting a Mounting Method Mechanical Mounting Socket-Head Cap Screws (5/16 or 8mm bolt diameter) For installations that can be drilled and tapped and do not have access to the back side of the mounting surface. Hex-Head Cap Screws (5/16 or 8mm bolt diameter) For installations that have access to the back side of the mounting surface for securing a nut or bolt. Self-drilling Sheet-metal Screws (1/4 diameter) For installations with thinner mounting surfaces where a quicker install is needed. Heavy Duty Rivets (3/16, or 4,6mm shank diameter) For installations that do not have access to the back side of a thinner mounting surface and requires basic tamper resistance. It is recommended to use fasteners made of a material that resists corrosion and environmental weathering such as stainless steel. VHB Adhesive Mounting For installations that are isolated from abuse, extreme weather and temperatures the GT0 has a pre-installed pad of VHB adhesive tape that can be used to peel and stick to any clean surface above 50F (10C). Using VHB REQUIRES installing to the Geoforce VHB installation guide process. Temporary and Fastener Free Mounting Metal straps and Zip-ties (1/4 or 6mm strap width) For installations that are quick and temporary or that may require a simple mechanical backup for VHB installations. Step 4: Initializing the GT0 Remove RED magnet lanyard from GT0 to begin service. Hex Head Cap Screw The GT0 will capture and hold a Hex-Head Cap Screw or Nut while being secured from the back side. Socket Head Cap Screw Geoforce can provide information on example mounting hardware upon request. Graphic TBD Refer to the Geoforce VHB Installation Guide!

1) Insert and leave the GT0 control magnet in the magnet slot on the GT0 upper housing. This magnet insertion aborts any ongoing radio message event and prevents any new radio message events from starting. This is equivalent to the OFF state. NOTE: The BLE low-power communications interface remains active during this state. NOTE: Press magnet lanyard firmly into the magnet slot to ensure it is fully inserted and will not fall out. c n I e c r o f o e G
