Routing the GPS Antenna
The GPS Antenna module is magnetic and supplied with double-sided
tape.
You can mount it to the top of the dashboard, so there are no metal
parts that obstruct the signal. We recommend mounting it inside the
vehicle on the passenger side of the dashboard, as shown below. Do
not leave it inside the glove box. Make sure the GPS antenna faces
up, and there are no obstructions in front of it.
Plug the GPS antenna into the VLine VL2 Camera AV1 port.
If using VAUX cable: Plug VAUX cable into the CAMERA AV1 on VLine.
Unplug GPS from the 10-pin to 4-pin adapter, and plug the GPS into
VAUX with the purple and green wires facing up.
Note that there is no GPS antenna for VLite (VLine Lite).
Routing the Microphone
Route microphone to a location where it will be able to pick up voice clearly.
We recommend to mount MIC nearby the rear view mirror but not directly
on windshield glass. Avoid sticking to the hard surface as it will pick up more
noise.
Plug the microphone into the MIC port of the VLine module

Testing VLine Operation
Test VLine Operation before mounting the dashboard back. WARNING:Make
sure to reconnect all unplugged connectors back to the vehicle before
cycling the ignition.
Cycle the ignition and press AUX to enter VLine mode. You might need to press
AUX few times.
If VLine appears on the screen, and all factory functions such as climate
controls, reverse camera, AF/FM stereo, are working, you can mount the dash-
board back.

Mounting the VLine Module
Mount the VLine main module in an easily accessible location, such as the
glove compartment, for easy access to the USB ports and to upgrade firm-
ware on the VLine module. Do not leave the unit inside the dashboard, as
it can damage the unit and its Bluetooth antenna and affect the Bluetooth /
Wifi reception.
Mounting Video Cable and Securing VLine
Important:Do not bend or pinchvideo cables,to avoid problems withvideo
signal. There should be no any bends of the video cable next to the con-
nectors that go to the back of the stereo or VLine, and no any sharp bends
anywhere else.
Secure VLine with zip ties, velcro or mounting brackets to make sure the
VLine does not bounce or move while the vehicle is in motion.
Install the interface in a location free from heat, humidity, moving parts, or
direct sunlight. Beware of hot-air flow from your vehicle’s climate control
system.
System’s operating temperature range is -30°C to +70°C (-24°F to +158°F)
