Installation
3-6 Outback HF Radiophone
Power supply
Ensure that the power supply to operate your Radiophone is
12V DC—usually vehicle batteries.
All installations should be checked by a qualified technician
before power is applied to the Radiophone.
The heavy duty six metre length of power cable has been
selected to minimise the voltage drop between the battery
and transceiver when in transmit mode. Installation using a
smaller core cable size is not recommended.
All cables should be protected from sharp edges and
mechanical abrasions.
It is recommended that a suitable cartridge fuse (32 Amp-
accessory code 711) is fitted in the active wire, close to the
battery, to protect the power cable from the possible risk of
fire through damaged insulation coming in contact with the
vehicle chassis. Normal glass in-line automotive fuses are
not recommended. The transceiver is fitted with adequate
internal protection.
Connect the power cable between the transceiver and the
battery.
Note: In extended control installations where the
power and control cables are long and follow a
common path, keep the cables separate by a
minimum of 200 mm. The cables can be brought
together for short distances, for example, to pass
through the same hole in a bulkhead. Failure to
observe this warning will cause distortion of the
transmitted audio signals.
