[. . . ] It will also enable you to run diagnostic tests to ensure your device is functioning properly. Once downloaded to your PC's hard disk, install INFORAD MANAGER by clicking on the downloaded file and consult the help files on the main menu. The installation process will prompt you when to connect the INFORAD processor (2) to your PC via the supplied USB cable (7). During this installation phase you will need to register the serial number of your device from the one-years free access to database updates. [. . . ] the antenna uses a special adhesive compound resistant to water for mounting purposes. Remove the protective film and apply the antenna to a dry and clean surface pressing firmly for several seconds For security reasons, never leave the antenna cable hanging where it may come into contact with the wheels or moving parts of your vehicle. Installing the LED warning lamp (4) : The flexible LED warning lamp advises you of approaching danger zones by flashing green, orange or red. It needs to be fitted within clear view of the rider field of vision, preferablely on the front forks or handlebars by means of the supplied plastic mounting strips (see diagramme below). For security reasons, never leave cables hanging where they may come into contact with the wheels or moving parts of your vehicle. Docking station power cable (5) : INFORAD requires an electrical power source of 5 to 24 V (400mW) provided through the cable (5). IMPORTANT: In the event that you fit the power cable directly to the bike's battery, always disconnect the INFORAD processor to avoid discharging it. This tells you that the device is on and the process of `satellite capture' has started. This process, depending on the line of sight with the satellite network, will take from between 1 and 5 minutes. The presence of tall buildings or tree cover will delay the satellite capture process. Once sufficient satellites have been captured (a minimum of 3 are required for operation), the LED lamp will emit a constant green light. Lamp colour Flashing green Fixed green Flashing orange Fixed red Flashing red Meaning Device not yet operational, searching for satellites. The green light never stops flashing: If your INFORAD's green light continues to flash for a sustained period of time (greater than 15 minutes), this indicates the unit cannot find the necessary number of satellites (3 minimum) and the following should be checked: 1. When you plug your Inforad in for the very first time it can sometimes take a little longer to acquire satellites. Please be patient; it should not take more than 5 minutes at most. It is easier for your Inforad to first acquire satellites when your vehicle is stationary. A brief wait before setting off is all that is normally required. If the green light continues to flash, check that there is a clear line of sight between the antenna and the sky. Perhaps a saddle or luggage strapped to the back of your bike is blocking the signal. You may be too close to a tall building, tree coverage or some other obstacle that impairs the GPS signal. [. . . ] If your broadband or dial up connection is working please read the final point. In some cases, antivirus or personal firewall software can impair downloads or registration and can even block connections from and to the INFORAD MANAGER application. Temporarily disable or lower the security settings of this software and attempt to reconnect again. If the above points fail to resolve your problem please go to the `Contact Technical Support' link which can be found in the `About' section of your INFORAD MANAGER application. [. . . ]
