2After the cable is in place, wind heat-resistant tape around the fuse holder to protect it from moisture. Tie down the full run of cable.

3To prevent the risk of short circuits, disconnect other wiring from the negative (–) battery terminal before connecting the transceiver.

4Confirm 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 full length of the cable without cutting off excess, even if the cable is longer than required. In particular, never remove the fuse holders from the cable.

5Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative terminal.

6Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver.

•Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab clicks.

nFixed Station Operation

In order to use this transceiver for fixed station operation, you will need a separate 13.8 V DC power supply that must be purchased separately. The recommended current capacity of the power supply is 12 A.

Note: Do not plug the DC power supply into an AC outlet until you make all connections.

1Ensure that the transceiver and DC power supply are both OFF.

2Connect the DC power cable to the regulated DC power supply and ensure that the polarities are correct (Red: positive, Black: negative).

•Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the transceiver to a regulated power supply. Do not directly connect the transceiver to an AC outlet.

•Do not substitute the cable with smaller gauge wires.
