Connecting System Components

The following sections provide instructions for properly wiring
the antenna unit to the components inside the vehicle.

Locating the Switchplate

Before running cables, you need to determine the location for the
TracVision L2 switchplate.

1. The switchplate should be installed in a dry, flat

location within reach of the cables that will
connect to the antenna unit.

2. Once you’ve decided on a suitable location, create

a panel cutout in the mounting surface. Figure 2-11
illustrates the mounting dimensions and a full-size
template has been provided in

Appendix C

. All

connecting cables will be routed through this
cutout.

Figure 2-12 shows the antenna unit’s baseplate connectors.

Figure 2-13

on the following page shows the switchplate’s

connectors. Refer to these figures when connecting cables to the
antenna unit and the switchplate.
