so that knees or legs will not strike it during sudden braking of your
vehicle. Try to pick a well ventilated location that is shielded from direct
sunlight.
1. Install the mounting bracket in the vehicle using the supplied self-
tapping screws (4pcs) and at washers (4pcs).
2. Position the transceiver, then insert and tighten the supplied hexagon
SEMS screws.

Initial Installation
DC POWER CABLE CONNECTION
For best operation, connect directly to vehicle battery.
MOBILE OPERATION
The vehicle battery voltage must be between 11.5 ~ 14.5 Volts
DC. Be sure to use a battery that has sufficient current capacity.
If the current to the transceiver is insufficient, the display may
darken during transmission, or transmitting output power may drop
excessively.
1. Route the DC power cable supplied with the transceiver directly
to the vehicle's battery terminals using the shortest path from the
transceiver.
2. If using the supplied power cable make sure the entire length of
the cable is dressed so it is isolated from heat, moisture, and the
engine high voltage ignition system.
3. If using the optional Powerwerx TMCG-72 cigarette lighter plug
make sure your cigarette lighter socket in your vehicle can handle
12 VDC @ 12 Amps.
• Conrm the correct polarity of the connections, then attach
the power cable to the battery terminals; red connects to
the positive (+) terminal and black connects to the negative
(-) terminal.
• Use the length of cable nessary to reach your battery. In
particular, never remove the fuse holders from the cable.
4. Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative terminal.
5. Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver's power supply
connector.
• Press the connectors rmly together until the locking tab clicks.

• Do not substitute a cable with smaller gauge wires.
BASE STATION OPERATION
In order to use this transceiver for fixed base station operation,
you will need an optional SS-30DV DC power supply and optional
Base Station Enclosure (not included). Please contact your local
dealer for these items.
Before connecting the DC power to the transceiver, be sure to
switch the transceiver and the DC Power Supply OFF.
Do not plug the DC Power Supply into an AC outlet until you
make all connections.
