Chapter 6: Peripheral Devices & Accessories

Wiring Guidelines

6.11.2 Wiring Guidelines

Before installing the cables between the cradle and other devices, consider the following:

•Ensure that drilling holes will not damage the vehicle or its wiring.

•Protect cable runs from pinching, overheating and physical damage.

•Use grommets to protect cables that pass through metal.

•Use plastic straps and tie-downs to secure cables and connectors in their desired location, away from areas where they may get snagged or pulled.

•Keep cables away from heat sources, grease, battery acid and other potential hazards.

•Keep cables away from control pedals and other moving parts that may damage the cables or interfere with the operation of the vehicle.

6.11.3 Using The Picker Cradle

If your 7530 G2 is equipped with a shoulder strap or cover, these accessories need to be removed before installing the unit in a picker cradle. There is no need to remove handstraps, pistol grips or tethered devices from the unit.

•Slide the 7530 G2 into the cradle, and press firmly downward until it locks into place. On a vehicle, it’s a good idea to pull up on the 7530 G2 to be certain that it is secure.

•To remove the 7530 G2, press firmly on one of the knobs on either side of the cradle until it releases. You do not need to press both knobs.

6.11.4 Maintaining The Picker Cradle

Two latches in the cradle hold the 7530 G2 firmly in place. Although these latches are designed for at least 80,000 cycles, they will wear over time and will no longer lock the 7530 G2 securely in the cradle. For replacement parts and instructions contact Psion Teklogix (see Appendix A: Support Services And Worldwide Offices). Partial disassembly is required.
