DIGITAL ELEVATION SENSOR ROOF CONNECTIONS
The illustrations below show the different methods of connecting wires at roof level. Method will depend on model. Wire
colors MUST MATCH (i.e. red to red, green to green, black to black, white to white).
This wire harness connects to the digital
elevation sensor on the antenna.
NOTE: This terminal is NOT
weatherproof and CANNOT be
left outside on the roof.

DO NOT strip
wires, terminal
is self strip-
ping.
Squeeze pliers until
red plunger is flush
with rest of terminal.
Supplied with the DM-2000 only.
NOTE: This terminal is weatherproof and can be left outside
on the roof as LONG AS IT IS SECURED PROPERLY to prevent
whipping in the wind.
STEP 13. Place the nut on the threaded rod.
STEP 14. Measure and cut the threaded rod with a
hacksaw. Use the chart, Figure 11, to determine the
length.
STEP 15. Remove the nut over the cut end of the
threaded rod. This cleans the threads after cutting.
STEP 16. Thread the cut end of the rod into the hub,
STEP 17. Install the ceiling plate. The rotate/lock
lever must point toward the rear of the vehicle.
Be sure rotate/lock lever is pointing toward back
of vehicle and hole in ceiling aligns with hole in
the ceiling plate.
NOTE: Make sure large and small keyways line up
in the hub and directional handle!
STEP 18. Measure and cut the directional handle;
see Figure 12 and chart, Figure 11. NOTE: A tube
cutter is recommended for cutting the directional
handle. This gives a square cut; a hacksaw does not.
If using an extension, see Step 22, page 9.
Figure 13, page 9, shows what points to measure
between, with and without a roof wedge.
