The Patriot has a breakaway wire to feed through the firewall and it plugs into the controls box. This control unit has a spring clamp for the brake peddle arm that actuates braking in the toad. Once connected and powered up with 12V (center console outlet is usually hot with key off) you activate a setup sequence that extends the brake arm 3 times. A properly positioned unit will set into the floor and seat front good and solid without tilt during the setup cycle extensions.

For my Jeep I typically lower sensitivity from the default ON of 5 to 4 or even 3. This can be conducted at the controller or from the cab remote. You can watch the brake activated light on the cab controller to know when the Patriot is engaging and feel the drag kick in. Dial in the brake engagement sensitivity from the cab for your conditions. I've never felt the need to dig into other non-default settings.
