REV: 08/24/12 INTRODUCTION Zonar Systems Virtual Trainer Hardware Installation Tips for Professional Installers Zonar Systems equipment will provide years of reliable service if properly installed and maintained.Zonar equipment is typically installed in heavy vehicle applications and is often subject to extreme temperatures, dust, dirt, vibration, and shock. Proper installation is the critical first step to equipment longevity and optimal performance. This guide is meant to be a general guideline for the professional installer and technician. While we attempt to point out the most common installation questions and issues; common sense, good housekeeping procedures, attention to detail, safety adherence, and technical competence of the professional installer is critical for a successful installation. Please refer to your specific vehicle manufacturer guidelines for the installation of electrical components and wiring. A professional team of Zonar support technicians and engineers are available to answer your installation questions. Contact Zonar at 1-877-843-3847 or by email at customercare@zonarsystems.com. Thank you, Jeff Wells Field Service Manager - Zonar Systems As Zonar Systems is continuously improving the Product, Zonar may make changes to the Product at any time which may not be reflected in this document. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Virtual Trainer Introduction .......................................................................................2 System Overview ...............................................................................4 Equipment .........................................................................................5 System Specifications........................................................................6 General Guidelines.............................................................................7 Installation ........................................................................................8 System Checklist ...............................................................................9 Warranty & Notices - FCC Compliance ............................................10 Notes...............................................................................................11 2012 Zonar Systems EVIR, ZPass,Ground Traffic Control and V3 are trademarks ofZonar Systems.

Do not mount V3 in hot engine compartments or near hotexhaust components. Lay all components out prior to installation to check for proper cable length and interference issues. Avoid mounting Zonar equipment, antennas and wiring near other radio equipment (e.g.,two-way radios), PA equipment and high energy electrical sources (e.g., cables, relays, amplifiers, etc.). 1) 2) 3) 4) Do not drill into the V3 unit. This will void the warranty. Capture all drill chips during drilling operations. Do not allow chips to fall onto equipment, furnishings, etc. Deburr all drill holes on both sides of drilled surface. Example deburr tool:
Electrical 5) All drill holes must have a rubber grommet or similar anti-
chaffing system installed to protect cable assemblies (e.g. plastic conduit). Seal all penetration drill holes which may pass rain water. 2) 1) Consult the vehicles manufacturer for specific installation guidelines. (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for Multiplex electrical systems) All power leads (Red and White Power leads) must be connected to the vehicles protected circuitry (e.g. fuse panel, circuit breaker panel, protected circuits). Never electrically connect Zonar equipment to unprotected circuits (e.g. directly to battery). It is also required that all power leads (Red and White Power leads) be protected with a 3 to 5 amp fuse and inline fuse holder (included) for optimal system protection. Electrical fuses should be installed as close as possible to the source of power. 3) 4) Cable Management 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) Strain relieve and support all cable installations. Avoid sharp bends and tight radius installations of cables. Avoid moving components (e.g. doors, steering shafts, handles, fans, etc.). Provide an adequate Service Loop i.e. cable slack to allow for servicing of equipment. Avoid routing cables thru doors, windows, and other pinch points. Avoid routing cables in high personnel traffic areas. Avoid routing antenna cables near radio and PA equipment. CORRECT Bend radius adequate Hole has grommet INCORRECT Bend radius too tight Hole has sharp edges Hole has no grommet General Housekeeping 1) 2) 3) Capture all drill chips during drilling operations. Do not allow drill chips to fall onto electrical equipment, furnishings, heating ducts, etc. Magnets, sticky tape, vacuums, physical barriers,etc. may all be used to accomplish this task. Remove excess sealant. Sealant should be debris/contaminant free (e.g. drill chips), consistent, and uniform in appearance. Clip excess wire tie protrusions. 7 VIRTUAL TRAINER INSTALLATION Fig 7-1 Fig 7-2 Mount Adhesive Pad 6 Pin Molex To Host VIRTUAL TRAINER Mounting Plate & Unit 1) Follow General Guideline on page 7. 2) Suggested mounting areas include horizontally atop dashboard. Verify placement acceptability with state DOT/law enforcement prior to installation. See Fig 7-1. 3) Mount onto interior surface large enough to accommodate mounting bracket footprint. 4) Do not install below windows or doors which open to the vehicles exterior to prevent water damage. 5) Avoid mounting equipment in difficult to access areas. Avoid mounting in areas which do not allow for direct viewing. 6) Avoid mounting Zonar Equipment, antennas and wiring near other radio equipment (e.g., two-way radios), PA equipment and high energy electrical sources (e.g., cables, relays, amplifiers, etc.). 7) Avoid mounting equipment in dirty, dusty, or damp areas (e.g. near floors and entrance ways). 8 VIRTUAL TRAINER CHECK LIST Customer:
