The proper methods for the connection of the output from the VIM module must be determined by the installer at the time of installation. This document will be divided into two sections. The first will focus on the installation of the V7A and the second will focus on the installation of the VIM module. The V7A and the VIM will be paired at the time of manufacture and should be kept together until they are installed in a vehicle. The V7A and the VIM module communicate via a wireless connection using an encrypted serial protocol. While the link is designed to be very robust, there are some attributes that must be considered when installing these devices into a vehicle. It is assumed that both the V7A and the VIM module will be installed inside the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
