NOTE: Be sure all wiring is unpowered before routing.
•Route wiring (for wire size see Section 4.0) through the mounting plate wire entrance (see Figure B), leaving enough to properly wire the transmitter.
•Route the wiring through the transmitter’s wire entrance.
•Slide the transmitter onto the mounting plate. Tighten with the mounting
•Repeat this complete mounting procedure for the receiver. Be sure to mount the receiver in
4.0 Wiring
Only apply power after all connections have been made and inspected.
•Use the following chart (Figure C) to determine the minimum gauge wire needed per length of wire run between the power source and the last unit on the run. The chart is based on one system (one transmitter and one receiver) connected to the same wire run from the power source.
If more than one system is added to the run, the maximum length per gauge decreases and is determined by dividing the length found in the chart by the number of systems on the run.

5.0 Setup and Alignment
NOTE: Precise, correct alignment is a critical process for these systems to operate effectively.
•Apply power to the units.
•Check the transmitter. The Power LED (see Figure A) should be on. If the lamp is not on, the unit is not receiving power.
•Locate the Alignment Tool (see Figure A) on either the Transmitter or Receiver.
•Slide the Alignment tool up and out of its holder (see Figure F) and slide it onto the Alignment Mount on whichever side of the Transmitter is most convenient for sighting through the viewfinder.

•From the side of the unit, look into the viewing port at the mirror. The view in the mirror is what is in
NOTE: Alignment may be made easier with the use of an alignment light (see Section 8.0).
• Rotate the optical module until the image of the other unit is centered in the mirror (see Figure G). If initially aimed too high or low, adjust the Vertical Fine Tuning screw (see Figure A) until the unit is centered.
•Repeat this complete alignment sequence for the receiver’s optical module.
•When properly aligned the Receiver’s green GOOD LED should be lit.
