SYSTEM PLANNING Make a list of devices and plan your connections. Prior to beginning Installation, make a list of all components you plan to include in your RedVision ® system. Being logical in this stage will make configuration much easier. Try to connect each Output and its controlling Input on like-numbered channels.
INSTALLATION — MOUNTING MOUNTING HARDWARE When mounting the TVMS Rogue, any fasteners may be used so long as: They are suitable for the selected mounting surface and; They have a clearance-fit through the mounting holes on the Main Unit. Using four screws/bolts from M6 (1/4") to M4 (#8) with washers is recommended.
MOUNTING LOCATION Mount as close as possible to the auxiliary battery to avoid voltage drop. Refer to the 'Cable Size Selection Table' (page 27) for the correct cable size for your cable length. Do not mount the Main Unit to moveable panels in your vehicle. ...
MOUNTING CLEARANCES Leave at least 100 mm (4") of clearance around the connections on the TVMS Rogue for the wiring looms to be connected and disconnected. Allow clearance for strain-relief and cable management once wiring is complete. See 'Strain- Relief and Cable Management' (page 32) for further information.
MOUNTING STEPS WARNING: Use suitable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when operating power tools. NOTICE: Do NOT modify the plastic housing or mounting holes in any way. Modification to the unit will void the warranty. 1. Confirm that the clearances around the TVMS Rogue Main Unit are adequate; see 'Mounting Clearances' (page 15).

JOINING/EXTENDING CABLES The TVMS Rogue Power Input has heavy gauge cables that require good, low resistance joints that will not degrade over time. For extending cables, REDARC recommends a properly crimped splice connection that is covered with heat shrink. CAUTION: Failure to make a good reliable connection may result in breakdown of the wire insulation and cause a short circuit or potentially a fire.

POWER INPUT CABLE WIRING Before you begin, purchase the correct cable size needed for your installation (refer to 'Power Input Sizing' (page 27). Note: Poor quality cable can degrade over time when exposed to high Cable temperatures (such as in an engine bay). Make sure you purchase good-quality cable with a suitable temperature rating for your installation.
