3. At the marked positions, drill holes slightly smaller than the screws.
4. Align the bracket with the threaded holes on the sides of the radio case so the bracket is beneath the radio. Secure the bracket using the two threaded
knobs. Never overtighten the knobs.
Once the radio is positioned, connect it to a source of AC power using the supplied 13.8V, 750 mA AC adapter. Insert the barrel of the AC adapter to the jack on
the rear, upper right side of the radio marked. Insert the connector of the supplied indoor telescoping antenna to the BNC Antenna Connector and apply moderate
pressure to secure it.
Setting Up an Audio Recording Device or Computer Recording
It is best if you plan ahead when you initiate the basic setup of the scanner if you include the components to record incoming reception. You need an audio
recording device which can be controlled by a Voice Operated module (VOX) either externally or from within the unit and the correct connecting cable. The
REC (record) jack on the rear apron provides a constant-level audio output which is not affected by the setting of the volume control. Use a mono or stereo cable
that ends in a 3.5mm plug for the scanner. The recorder might have its own requirements as to the proper plug. Check the recorder's instructions to be sure.
Connect the cable to an external or internal VOX control so that the recorder operates when audio is present.
You can also connect the cable to the appropriate input jack on your PC so that with controlling software, you can record to your hard disk.
In order for the function to operate, you must set the channel to record. You must also set the system's record option to either All Channel, which will record all
channels regardless of any channel's setting, or Marked Channel which only lets recording occur if you have selected record for that channel. Which you choose
will depend on various factors.
Vehicle Installation
You can mount your scanner in your vehicle, using either the supplied bracket or the optional DIN-E sleeve.
Mounting Using the Bracket
With the bracket removed from the radio, use the holes in the bracket as a template to initially mark the location you plan to use in your vehicle. Be absolutely
certain of what might be behind the mounting surface before making any holes, be it above, or below, or in front of your dash, armrest console, or other location.
If you drill carelessly, expensive damage can result. If in doubt, consult your vehicle dealer's service department or a qualified professional installer.
Important: AVOID AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ZONES. Ignoring this installation concern may result in bodily harm and the inability of the airbag to perform
properly.
