Touch Screen

JLT6012A is equipped with a Projected Capacitive Touch screen. Also called PCT or PCAP. The touch screen is calibrated from the factory and needs no further calibration.
It has a resistant glass surface that can be cleaned with a damp cloth, ordinary soap, or hand-dish washing fluids. Purpose-made cleaning fluids may also be used. It’s normally operated with fingers, and may also be used with a purpose-designed stylus for PCT or PCAP. A stylus designed for resistive touch screens will not work.
NOTE: As the surface is made of glass it will withstand most common substances, but Do NOT use fluids like bleach or any strong alkali cleaning agents such as sodium or potassium hydroxide for cleaning as it may etch the glass and leave grey marks.

JLT standard cable configuration: Red = Positive, White = Remote, Black = Ground
The power cable must be dimensioned to handle up to 40 Watts or use cable supplied by JLT.
Recommended cable area 0.75 mm², AWG 18 or larger.
Important: Do NOT apply any solder to the cable ends. It will eventually make the connection unreliable and loose during use.

Mounting

Cable Strain Relief and Rubber Sealing Plugs
Use included cable ties to attach cables to the strain relief plate.
Install rubber sealing plugs to unused ports.

JLT provided Mounting Kits: RAM®
RAM® Mount -> Computer: Use included screws and washers.
Usage of thread locking products like Loctite® is recommended.

Mounting with other brands and parts
When mounting a JLT unit to a VESA bracket, use M6 screws with the correct length.
The inserting part of the screw should be a minimum of 5mm and must NOT exceed 8.5mm. (That is 8 complete turns on the screw).
If screws are too long, build up with washers to adjust the inserting part of the screw.
If this is not done and the screws are too long, they will deform the aluminum case inwardly when applying great force.
Torque: Maximum 6Nm

Important:

The vehicle computer and bracket must be firmly secured to a surface that can support the vehicle computer´s weight and include optional accessories such as a keyboard and scanners.
Computer weight = 2.9 kg or 6.4 lb

Keyboard mount

An accessory keyboard mount is available from JLT that mounts towards the two M6 screw holes on each side. Fasteners are included with the mount. If other fasteners or screws are being used the depth of mounting holes are maximum of 8mm.
The keyboard mount has multiple mounting hole alternatives and comes with a Velcro® adhesive tape to adapt to any keyboard. It’s adjustable to allow different keyboards and heights. Mounting screws come with the selected keyboard if supplied from JLT Mobile.
