    Determine the location of a 2-Amp circuit breaker to be used and how to connect to it (solder, screw terminals, lugs, etc). If only a higher-amperage circuit breaker is available, it may be used, but the David Clark 2-Amp Fuse Kit must also be used.
  • Page 27 Using the wire cutters and wire strippers, prepare the end of the cable as necessary for your installation (Figure 15). If using the David Clark 2-Amp Fuse Kit, please see Appendix B for assembly instructions. Connect the cable to the power source Connect the RED to the positive (+) terminal.

    7. Captain’s Priority Switch (Optional) The Captain’s Priority switch allows for the Captain to isolate himself along with Radio 1 and Radio 2 from the Co-Captain and the Passengers. When this switch is ON, the Captain will have exclusive access to Radio 1 and Radio 2.
  • Page 29: Auxiliary Audio Connection (Optional)

    8. Auxiliary Audio Connection (Optional) The Auxiliary Audio connection is intended for use with line-level devices only. Typical connections include a portable CD/MP3 player’s headphone jack or the “Preamp Output” RCA jacks on a car/marine stereo. IMPORTANT: To connect to the External Speaker terminals of a communications or weather radio that has balanced audio output, an external transformer MUST be used to prevent possible damage to the radio and/or the Series 9800 Marine Intercom.
