Solar Panel Trickle Charging
The solar panel will trickle charge the battery when exposed to sunlight. 1 hour of sunlight equals up to 9 GPS updates. If the device is in
standby mode (1 report every 24 hours), then 1 hour of sunlight will provide enough charge for 9 days of standby time.
Installation - Wiring for XTracker Solar Trickle Charging Cable (Not Included)
The optional Trickle Charging Cable allows you to connect the device to a
vehicle’s
(12V-24V) battery, or any other wire with constant power.

Recommended installation locations on a vehicle
1)
The best spots for GPS trackers are close to windows, on the dashboard of the vehicles, or in the rear window and will provide the
most unobstructed view for obtaining a GPS position.
2)
Any thermal barriers or heating layers on the windshield may affect the signal.
3)
Other common installation spots are under the dashboard, or any other area/compartment with access to wiring/power locations.
4)
DO NOT install device within a metal container as this will disrupt the GPS signals.
