MOBILE INSTALLATIONS
A location in the Car or Truck should carefully be chosen for convenience of opera-
tion and non-interference with normal driving functions. Mounting may be under the
dash or the instrument panel or any place where a secure installation.can be made.
DC POWER CONNECTION
This transceiver may be operated from a 12 volt DC battery source on Negative or
Positive ground system. It is designed to operate within an input voltage range
of 11.6 to 15.6 volts DC. Make sure that the voltage to the transceiver does not
exceed 15.6 volts DC.
NOTE:
Before making any power connection, you must determine whether the vehicle or boat
has a negative or positive electrical ground system. Then make the following
connections.
1.
Using the end of the DC power cable, connect the fused Red lead to the "+"
(positive) side of the electrical system and the Black lead to the "-" (negative)
side of the electrical system. In case of the negative ground system, the Red
lead should be connected to the accessory post on the ignition switch, the
voltage regulator side of the ammeter and/or the accessory side of the fuse block.
The Black lead should be connected to the metal firewall or any other point that
is connected to the vehicle chassis(ground).
2.
In case of the positive ground system, the Black lead should be connected to
the accessory post on the ignition switch, the voltage regulator side of
ammeter and/or the accessory side of the fuse block. The Red lead should be
connected to the metal firewall or any other point that is connected to the
vehicle chassis(ground).
TRANSCEIVER MOUNTING
Before installing the transceiver in a car, truck and etc., be sure to choose a
location which is convenient to the operating controls and will not interfere with
the normal functions of the driver. The transceiver may be mounted to the under-
side of the instrument panel or„dashboard of a car, truck and etc., by means of
the special brackets which are supplied with the transceiver. Attach the brackets
to the underside of the instrument panel using self-threading screws (See Fig. 1).
