5.8 MONITOR POSITION DISPLAY

The monitor position display is supplied with a 10' (3 m) long 4-conductor cable. The installer will need to surface mount the enclosure in
a dry area and connect the cable to power and the communication link of the monitor. Display is designed for use with 180° total
horizontal axis travel.

5.8.1 ENCLOSURE MOUNTING

Select proper location for display. The display is not weatherproof and needs to be inside a protected area such as in the cab.

(89 mm)

5.8.2 ELECTRICAL WIRING

The monitor position display needs to be connected to +12/24VDC (red) and ground (black). The blue & white wires from the position
display cable need to be connected to the blue & white wires from the monitor. A terminal box or a high quality, protected splice can be
used to make these connections. See section 5.0.0 for connecting power and communication cable.

5.9 CONNECTING MONITOR CABLE DIRECTLY TO PROTECTED POWER SUPPLY

The electric RC monitor has an operator station, which is fully functional, mounted on the monitor. If no other operator stations are
selected, the installer will only need to connect power to complete the installation.
5.9.1 ELECTRICAL WIRING
Route cable from monitor and connect to a protected circuit from the truck's power distribution center. Connect the red wire to positive
and the black wire to negative (ground). Cut and discard blue and white wires.

When installing the electric RC monitor on an aerial device truck, refer
to section 5.10.2.1 or 5.10.2.2.

5.10.1 ELECTRONICS ENCLOSURE MOUNTING

Select proper enclosure location. Enclosure is designed to be surface
mounted and the size is 5 3/4" x 8 3/4" (146 x 222mm). Height of
enclosure is 2 1/4" (57mm). Refer to Figure 5.10.1 for mounting hole
dimensions.
5.10.2 ELECTRICAL WIRING
On aerial devices the installer will supply the required cables that run
up the ladder or boom. Be sure to perform voltage drop calculations to
verify that the supply voltage will remain at an acceptable level during
monitor operation.
