Intermec 2430 Installation Instruction

The 243X vehicle dock is designed to be installed on a vehicle, such as a
forklift truck, or in an office setting. These installation instructions explain
how to install the standard (Part No. 071805) and powered (Part No.
071695) vehicle dock for your Trakker Antares

® 

243X hand-held terminal.

The 243X vehicle dock kit contains these parts:

•

Vehicle dock

•

Serial communications adapter (powered kit only)

You can order the optional swivel stand (Part No. 070803-001) separately.

You may also need the following tools and materials (not included):

•

Common hand tools

•

Mounting hardware (depends on the thickness of the mounting
surface)

•

Electric drill and drill bits

Read the following guidelines before you install the vehicle dock.

•

Choose a location for the vehicle dock where the operator can easily
see the 243X screen and use the keypad. If possible, install the
vehicle dock in a location that prevents glare from overhead lighting
and sunlight. Make sure there is enough clearance to insert and
remove the 243X.

•

Secure the power cables (powered kit only) at least every 45 cm (18
in) throughout the length of the cable run, using adjustable clamps or
tie-wraps.

•

Route all cables (powered kit only) to minimize exposure to damage.
Make sure the cables will not be pinched or rubbed by any moving
parts on the vehicle. In some applications, you may need to sheath
the cable to prevent it from being pinched.
