If the black out screen function is not used, see section 4.2.2. - Page 19 User Manual Tx800 Installation For proper and safe installation, the input power cable must be connected to a fused circuit on the vehicle. This fused circuit requires a user supplied 5 Amp maximum time delay (slow blow) high interrupting rating fuse. If the supply connection is made directly to the battery, the fuse should be installed in the positive lead within 5 inches of the battery positive (+) terminal.
- Page 20 Installation User Manual Tx800 The input and output blocks each have two + and two – minus connectors. Either connector in the block can be used to connect the matching polarity wire. Use the looms and wire ties to secure all wiring then reattach the cover with the screws. If the blackout screen box is used, attach the stripped wire ends to the box.
