with the connectors facing
down. Please take extra
caution not to damage
internal components while
installing. For high vibration
applications, use shock
absorbing mounts. It is
advised to mount the unit as
high as possible, keeping
clear of metal obstructions
around the antenna which
might affect RF performance.
The main power to the
receiver should be connected
through a switched, fused line
capable of 20 amps. For best
results, connect the power
(+) to the receiver via an
auxiliary terminal of the
ignition switch, PTO switch, or
ignition relay. Be sure that the
ground (-) is connected
securely to the chassis or
battery with a star washer
which digs into the base metal
to insure good contact.
All connections must be
properly insulated to protect
against shorts.
Seal all connections with a
non-conductive silicone
grease to prevent corrosion.
BEFORE APPLYING
POWER!
Check power and ground
for proper polarity.
Check the wiring harness
for possible shorts before
connecting to output
devices (i.e. valves and
relays) by checking each
mating pin terminal.
Verify that the transmitter
batteries are fresh.
