ENHANCING SAFETY THROUGH INNOVATION
HARDWARE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Install the included GPS antenna in a location with a clear view
of the sky. Common locations for the GPS antenna are on the
exterior of the vehicle (utilizing the magnetic surface), adhered
to the windshield of the vehicle, or on top of the vehicle’s
dashboard. In any scenario, make sure to locate the GPS module
away from any high heat sources. Do not secure the module
at this point; leave extra coax cable to allow for GPS final
placement.
2. Remove any paneling necessary to route the antenna cable to
the installation location of the bluePRINT SYNC module. While
routing, ensure there are no sharp bends or kinks in the coax
cable. Be sure to protect the coax cable from any sharp edges,
or high heat. SoundOff Signal recommends using split loom
to protect the antenna wire further. Secure the antenna wire
whenever possible.
3. Connect the SMA antenna connector to the bluePRINT SYNC
module.
4. On the opposite side of the bluePRINT SYNC module is an
Ethernet port for interfacing with bluePRINT
®
. Connect the
supplied Ethernet cable between bluePRINT SYNC and the
Control Panel data bus. The connection can be made at the
Central Controller or at the Control Panel itself. Use the provided
Ethernet parallel splitter when necessary.
NOTE: It is possible to use an aftermarket GPS
or multi-band antenna with bluePRINT
SYNC
®
.
However, due to variables of aftermarket
manufacturers, SoundOff Signal
®
does not offer
GPS signal troubleshooting in these cases.
Additionally, using a GPS antenna with the
incorrect frequency or gain can damage the
bluePRINT SYNC module, voiding the warranty.
See Page 3 for antenna specifications.

GPS T-SPLITTER WARNING:
GPS signal T-Splitters should not be used
with bluePRINT SYNC

. This goes for
an aftermarket antenna, as well as the
magnetic antenna included with bluePRINT

connected to bluePRINT SYNC, and not
shared with other devices.
