DocumentDocumentVehicle Powered RV Toll Pass Installation Instructions for Class A Motor Homes 16-0188-001 Rev A X2 6/22 The RV Toll Pass is an interior-mounted transponder, powered directly from the vehicle through a wire harness assembly connected to switched power. The RV Toll Pass can be powered from a vehicle fuse panel. Factory installations may utilize the vehicle power rail. The transponder may also be concealed in a vehicle headliner or securely attached to a vehicle windshield. These instructions provide general guidelines for these types of installations. This information is intended for use by authorized TransCore dealers, installers, and service personnel. Trusted Transportation Solutions Installation Instructions Supplies Needed for Installation Before you begin, open the installation kit to ensure that you have all of the parts listed in Table1, and review the recommended tools and supplies. Note: The harness assembly should be installed into the vehicle by a qualified technician. Table1Included Parts List RV Toll Pass Vehicle Powered Transponder (1) RV Toll Pass Power Harness (1) Quick Disconnects for 20 AWG wire (2 large, 2 small) Fuse Taps (2 large, 2 small) Ring Terminals for 20 AWG wire (2) - Zip Ties (6) Recommended Tools and Supplies · Needle nose pliers · Screwdriver set · Socket set · Voltage meter · Wire crimper · Wire snips · Wire strippers · Commercial glass cleaner and paper towels (windshield mount only) 2 TransCore Proprietary RV Toll Pass Power Harness Assembly The RV Toll Pass transponder should be connected to the vehicle fuse panel through a power harness made specifically for the transponder. Figure1 shows a diagram of the RV Toll Pass transponder and power harness assembly. CAUTION: Do not power the RV Toll Pass transponder directly from 12/24VDC. You must use the power harness assembly. Transponder The transponder can be mounted in the headliner of the vehicle or on the windshield in compliance with installation specifications. Power Harness The power harness may be connected to switched power at the vehicle fuse panel. Power Cable A power cable with a keyed locking connector provides a secure connection from the transponder to the power harness. CAUTION: Do not modify the power cable. Modifications will nullify TransCore's standard 1-year warranty. Black and Red Wire Pair Connects the Power Harness to the vehicle Fuse Panel and Ground using the Quick Disconnects, Fuse Taps, and Ring Terminals. Note: This wire pair may be trimmed to meet specific installation requirements.

Locate the black and red wire pair on the power harness. Trim wire length as required. Crimp one of the supplied quick disconnects onto the red wire. Ensure that the crimped connection is secure (Figure2). Figure2Crimp Quick Disconnect onto Red Wire 2. Crimp one of the supplied ring terminals onto the black wire (Figure3). Ensure the crimped connection is secure. Figure3Crimp Ring Terminal onto Black Wire 3. Attach the ring terminal to a ground point on the vehicle such as a bolt or nut that is attached to bare metal. 4 TransCore Proprietary RV Toll Pass 4. Locate a fuse (max. 25 Amp) in the fuse panel that has voltage present ONLY when the ignition switch is in the key on/engine off position. 5. Remove the fuse. Using a voltage meter, determine which side of the fuse receptacle DOES NOT have power when the ignition switch is in the key on/engine off position and attach a fuse tap to that side. CAUTION: Do NOT place fuse taps on the hot side of the fuse. 6. Reinstall the fuse and attach the red wire with the quick disconnect to the fuse tap (Figure4). Use zip ties as needed to take up wire slack and organize wires. Figure4Reinstall Fuse and Attach Red Wire with Quick Disconnect Connecting Transponder to the Accessory Power Rail Note: For transponder mounting or location questions, contact TransCore Technical Support. For factory installation directly to the vehicle's power rail, observe the following guidelines: 1. The transponder must be on switched power. 2. The power harness requires an in-line fuse up to 5A. 3. Power must be connected to the accessory power rail. 4. The transponder can accept continuous voltage, max 30VDC. 5. The transponder draws 20 mA. TransCore Proprietary 5 Installation Instructions Installing Transponder in Headliner Note: For transponder mounting or location questions, contact TransCore Technical Support. The RV Toll Pass transponder may be concealed in the vehicle headliner as close as possible to the front of the vehicle and windshield. The transponder must be horizontally polarized, on a nonmetallic or non-carbon fiber surface, at least 4 inches away from any metal. 1. Determine the proper location for the transponder. 2. Run the power cable behind the dashboard assembly and vehicle panels as needed in order to conceal the power cable. Refer to Figure5 for cable routing guidelines. X XX Do not allow the cable to cross over the tag Do not loop cable around the tag Do not coil the cable on top of the tag Cable should be as straight as possible and not loop around, over, or on top of the tag Figure5Cable Routing Guidelines 6 TransCore Proprietary RV Toll Pass 3. Connect the power cable to the transponder (Figure6). Ensure that the cable is connected securely. Figure6Connect the Power Cable to the Transponder 4. Once the optimal mounting location is determined, prepare the mounting surface, making sure that the area is free of dust, dirt, and debris. 5. Peel the backing off of the transponder to expose the adhesive. Apply the transponder using moderate pressure. NOTE: Installation is semi-permanent and the transponder cannot be repositioned once it is in place. Installing Transponder on the Windshield Note: For transponder mounting or location questions, contact TransCore Technical Support. The RV Toll Pass transponder may be mounted on the interior windshield, with the longest side parallel to the bottom of the windshield. Other tags must be kept at least 3 inches away from the transponder. The area on the dashboard beneath the transponder must be kept clear of paperwork and metallic items. Determine the proper location for the transponder One-piece windshield If the vehicle has a one-piece windshield, the transponder should be centered on the windshield, 4 inches away from the top of the windshield (Figure7.) Two-piece windshield If the vehicle has a two piece windshield, the transponder should be mounted on the passenger side, 3 inches away from the center dividing bar and 4 inches below the top of the windshield (Figure8). 1. Run the power cable behind the dashboard assembly and vehicle panels as needed in order to conceal the power cable. Refer to Figure5 on page 6. TransCore Proprietary 7 Installation Instructions 2. Connect the power cable to the transponder. Refer to Figure6 on page 7. Ensure that the cable is connected securely. 3. Once the optimal mounting location is determined, prepare the mounting surface, making sure that the area is free of dust, dirt, and debris. The windshield temperature should be at least 68ºF (20ºC) for optimum bonding. 4. Peel the backing off of the transponder to expose adhesive. Apply the transponder using moderate pressure. Note: Installation is semi-permanent and the transponder cannot be repositioned once it is in place. 4" Centered Figure7Mounting Position for One-Piece Windshield 4" 3" Figure8Mounting Position for Two-Piece Windshield 8 TransCore Proprietary RV Toll Pass Uninstalling Transponder Mounted with Adhesive Tape When the Transponder is installed on a vehicle mounting surface using high-bond adhesive tape, installation is semi-permanent and the transponder cannot be moved once the installation is complete. If the transponder needs to be removed, a tool specifically designed for removing high-bond tape should be used (Figure9). Failure to do so can result in damage to the mounting surface. TransCore recommends using a plastic trim removal tool or a string saw. Note: The transponder will be damaged from this procedure and must be replaced with either a new or refurbished transponder. 1. Slide the removal tool between the transponder and the windshield. 2. Working in small sections, gently pry or cut the adhesive away from the mounting surface. Liquid soap may be used as a lubricant. 3. When the bond has loosened, remove the transponder from the mounting surface. 4. Soften the adhesive residue remaining on the mounting surface with a commercial adhesive remover. Allow the solvent to soak for 5-15 minutes, then use a scraper to remove any remaining adhesive. 5. Clean the mounting surface with cleaner and paper towels.
