To match with the radio, the antenna and cable shall with characteristic impedance of 50ohm, or the antenna system will not efficient enough and will disturb TV, radio or other electronics. 1. Screw the antenna connector into the antenna jack. 2. Grounding the antenna system to ensure best performance of this radio. WARNING:
Connect antenna firstly before transmiting, or it might damage the radio. To avoid the risk of fire, electric shock, radio damage, all base station shall equip of lightning protector Be sure choose a matching antenna, you may enquiry our dealers. 3. The position of antenna can be put as following example:
POWER CONNECTION This radio adopt 13.8V power supply, never connect it to 24V battery, And the 13.8V car battery shall with sufficient current, or the LCD will become dark and Transmit power will drop down. 3 1. Connect positive red power cable with the + terminal of the battery. 2. Connect negative black power cable with the - terminal of the battery. 3. Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver's power supply connector. We suggest not use cigar lighter as it often bring down the voltage. Locate the power cable away from high temperature, moisture, portfire and cable insulator. Use a full power cable even it is longer than need, do not take off the fuse holder from the cable. Connected to chassis Replacing Fuse This radio adopt 10A, 250V fuse. If the fuse blows, determine the reason, then correct the problem. After the problem is resolved, replace the fuse. If newly installed fuses continue to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your autho-rized dealer or an authorized servicecenter:
1. Pull the two fuse cover in difference direction and open it. IN-LINE FUSE HOLDER 10A 250V FUSE
, 2. Replace the broke fuse with good one, and close the fuse holder. 3. Be sure to use suggested fuse, or it might damage the radio. IN-LINE FUSE HOLDER IN-LINE FUSE HOLDER FUSE IN-LINE FUSE HOLDER 4 Install Microphone Hanger Choose a ideal location which will not interfere the driver. Using supplied self-tapping screws and pads(2 sets) to fix the hanger. Install External Speaker If use an external speaker, please choose 8ohm speaker with 3.50mm mono band
(doulbe cable) plug. 1. Locate the external speaker in a suitable place. 2. Plug into the speaker jack. 5 GETTING ACQUAINTED Front Panel 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 23 TX PWR 4 1 53 97
