SCRAM GPS Installation Best Practices

Proper Alignment of the Device Strap and Backplate

To ensure the backplate is oriented correctly for installation:

Place the bracelet face up on a desk with the strap on the right side.
Next, place the backplate under the strap with the large posts closest to the bracelet.

The farther away the backplate is positioned from the bracelet body, the larger the circumference of the strap.

The device strap is laid on top of the device backplate such that the two long posts on the backplate are nearest the device itself, and three notches in the strap align with the three pegs in the backplate. This is correct. — Proper Alignment of GPS Device Strap and Backplate

IMPORTANT! There are nine sizing notches in a “small” (sometimes referred to as “juvenile”) SCRAM GPS strap, and 14 sizing notches in a “regular” (adult) SCRAM GPS strap. Ensure that the three raised pegs in the backplate fit into three of the available sizing notches in the strap. DO NOT attempt to secure the strap on only the last two notches of the strap (8 & 9 for small, or 13 & 14 for regular); otherwise the backplate will not close flush against the device casing and may result in tamper alerts being generated in SCRAMNET GPS.

The end of the device strap is laid on top of the device backplate such that the last three notches in the strap align with the three pegs in the backplate. This is correct. — Proper Positioning of the end of SCRAM GPS Straps on Backplate (click to enlarge)

The end of the device strap is laid on top of the device backplate such that the only two of the last three notches in the strap align with the three pegs in the backplate, and the end of the strap interferes with the third peg in the backplate.
