4SAFETY INFORMATIONThe operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazardscommon to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. A list of severalpossible hazards is given:1. Explosive Atmospheres - Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle withthe motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a mobile radio,be sure to turn the radio off while fueling the vehicle. Do not carrycontainers of fuel in the trunk of the vehicle if the radio is mounted inthe trunk.2. Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems - Electronic fuelinjection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electroniccruise control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that maymalfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energypresent when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment,consult the dealer and enlist their aid in determining the expectedperformance of electronic circuits when the radio is transmitting.3. Dynamite Blasting Caps - Dynamite blasting caps may be caused toexplode by operating a radio within 500 feet of the blasting caps.Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios" signs posted wheredynamite is being used.When transporting blasting caps in your vehicle:a. Carry the blasting caps in a closed metal box with a soft lining.b. Leave the radio OFF whenever the blasting caps are being put intoor removed from the vehicle.4. Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles - Mobile radioinstallations in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas with theLP gas container in the trunk or other sealed-off space within theinterior of the vehicle must conform to the National Fire ProtectionAssociation standard (NFPA) 58 requiring:a. The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated by aseal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fittings.b. Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas container.c. The LP gas container shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle.

9INSTALLATIONSTEP 1 - PLAN THE INSTALLATIONFigure 1 shows an example of a typical connection diagram.  Beforebeginning, plan the radio installation carefully so that it will: Be safe for the operator and passengers, Be convenient for the operator to use, Be neat in appearance, Be protected from water damage, Be easy to service, Be out of the way of auto mechanics, Be out of the way of passengers, and Allow for good air flow around the unit’s cooling fins.For passenger safety, mount the radio securely so the unit will not breakloose in the event of a collision.  This is especially important in stationwagons, vans and similar type installations where a loose radio could beextremely dangerous to the vehicle occupants.The procedures in this section provide a guideline for installing the mobileradio.  In some applications, it may be necessary to deviate slightly from therecommended procedure and the order in which the equipment is installed.To assure the feasibility of the cable routes you plan to use, it is suggestedthat you run the cables before installing the radio.  Be sure to leave someslack in each cable so that the radio may be pulled out for servicing with thepower applied.It is recommended the unit be installed by one of the many Com-NetEricsson Authorized Service Centers located throughout the United States.Personnel at these centers are experienced in installations of this type andcan provide a safe, neat, and functional installation.STEP 2 - LOCATE THE TOOLS REQUIREDThe following tools are required to install the PANTHER 300M MobileRadio:• Electric drill for drilling mounting holes• Drills and circle cutters as follows: No. 31 (1/8-inch) drill
10 1/2-inch drill or circle cutter 3/4-inch circle cutter, hole saw or socket punch• Phillips and flat-blade screwdrivers• No. 10 Torx driverTorx is a registered trademark of CAMCAR Division  TEXTRON, Inc.STEP 3 – EQUIPMENT PREPARATIONMountingThis section describes the radio preparation for installation.  In mostapplications, the following procedures should be completed before the radiois mounted.  Depending upon the mounting location, these procedures couldbecome very difficult after the radio is mounted.  The preparation listincludes:• Configuring the Internal Speaker Jumper• Configuring the Ignition Sense Line Jumper• Connecting the Option Cable to the RadioRead through the procedures provided in this section.  If you are satisfiedwith the default factory jumper settings and your installation does notrequire an option cable, skip this section and go to STEP 4 – PROGRAMTHE RADIO on page 15.Removing the Top Cover and ShieldThe top cover and shield must be removed to change the Internal Speakerjumper (JP701) or the ignition sense line jumper (JP600), to connect theoption cable to the radio.1. The top cover is secured with three screws from the bottom of theradio.  Using a No. 10 Torx driver, loosen the three screws   on thetop of the radio as shown in Figure 2.2. Remove the two control knobs from the front of the radio.3. Pry the cover loose from the two tabs on the bottom of the radio.
11Figure 1 – Typical Connection Diagram
124. Remove the top cover by lifting the back and sliding it forward awayfrom the chassis.Figure 2 – Removing Top Cover
13Figure 3 – Factory Default Internal Speaker Jumper Setting (Enabled)Configure the Internal Radio Speaker Jumper (JP701)The PANTHER 300M radio is shipped from the factory with the internalradio speaker jumper (JP701) set to 1-2 as shown in Figure 3.  This settingenables the internal radio speaker.  Set the jumper to 2-3 if 1) only theExternal Speaker is to be enabled or 2) the Internal/External Speaker optionis to be enabled.Configure Ignition Sense Jumper (JP600)The Ignition Sense line enables or disables transmit or car horn alert optionthrough the vehicle ignition switch.  If the Ignition Sense option is desired,Ignition Sense jumper JP600 must be set to 2-3. The PANTHER 300M radiois shipped from the factory with the Ignition Sense jumper (JP600) set to 1-2 as shown in Figure 4.  This default setting disables the Ignition Senseoption.  If your installation will not take advantage of the Ignition Senseline, skip this section and proceed to the next section.To use the Ignition Sense line in any application, the option cable must be
14wired accordingly, see the section Connect To Ignition Sense on page 17.There are three parameters that define how the Ignition Sense feature willoperate - a jumper on the radio (as described above), and two programmableparameters in the personality.The programmable parameters enable/disable Transmission and/or HornAlert with respect to the vehicle ignition switch.  For more information onthe personality parameters, see the On-Line Help in ConventionalProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer (TQ-3385 R9A orlater).Figure 4 – Factory Default Settings For Jumper JP600
15Connect Option CableThis section applies to installations that require an option cable.  The optioncable (RPM 113 7674/1) is required if you are installing:• External Speaker • Internal/External Speaker Option• Car Horn Alert • Ignition Sense• External Modulation • External DemodulationTo connect the option cable to the radio:1. Remove the two Phillips screws holding the plastic cover in place, fromthe back of the radio, see Figure 5.Figure 5 – Removing Plastic Cover2. Insert the option cable through the hole left by removing the plasticcover.  This will allow the connector to fit through the hole in the backof the radio.3. Plug the option cable connector into J3 on the radio circuit board.4. Finally, attach cable with the two Phillips screws.STEP 4 – PROGRAM THE RADIOAll radios must be programmed with a radio personality.  There are manyparameters in the PANTHER 300M mobile radio that need to be setup anddefined for the radio to operate appropriately for each application.Conventional ProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer (TQ-3385 R9A or later) is the software used to create the personality for thePANTHER 300M radio.  The radio personality is a computer file that definesall the operating parameters for the radio.  For more information onprogramming the PANTHER 300M radio, see the On-Line Help providedwith Conventional ProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer(TQ-3385 R9A or later).  Typically, the radio is programmed before it isinstalled in a vehicle.
16STEP 5 – INSTALL CABLESThe PANTHER 300M Mobile Radio is installed as a front mount radio.  Thelocation of the mount, the application, and the options to be installed shouldbe considered when planning the cable runs.  The cable diagram in Figure 1should be referenced throughout the installation process.Power CableThe power cable RPM 113 7674/10 consists of a two-wire cable, see Figure6.  The red fused lead supplies power to the radio directly from the vehiclebattery. Ignition Sense lead, through the separate option cable, is used bythe radio electronics to determine when the ignition switch is turned on.The black lead is the radio ground connection.To install the power cable:1. Remove the fuse from the power cable.2. When the power cable is wired directly to the vehicle’s battery, it isnecessary to route the red power lead through the vehicle’s firewall. Ifan existing hole is not conveniently located in the firewall, drill a 1/2-inch hole in the firewall for the cable run and insert a rubber grommet.This grommet is required to prevent lead chaffing. Additionalgrommets may be required if the leads must pass through shields orguards in the engine compartment.
17Figure 6 – Power Cable RPM 113 7674/10Route the lead away from high heat sources in the engine compartmentthat may cause lead damage and introduce a fire hazard. In addition, thelead  should not be routed near electrical noise sources such aselectronic ignition modules or cruise control modules.3. Secure the cable at several locations within the engine compartment toprevent possible damage to the cable.4. Connect the BLACK lead to the vehicle chassis.  Connect the lead asclose to the radio as possible.  DO NOT connect the BLACK lead tothe “NEG” or “-“ battery post.  Connect the RED lead to the positive(“POS” or “+”) battery post.  See Figure 6.NOTEThe power source must have a minimum current supplycapability of 13 amps.
18Connect To Ignition SenseThe ignition sense line is used to enable or disable transmit or the Car HornAlert option through the vehicle ignition switch.  For a detailed descriptionon how to configure the Ignition Sense line, see the section ConfigureIgnition Sense Jumper on page 13.   Regardless of how the ignition senseline is configured, the option cable must be wired as described below for thefeature to work.Connect Pin 13 of the option cable to an ignition “ON” sense point(preferably an “Accessory” point in the vehicle fuse panel) that is switchedon when the vehicle ignition switch is in the ACCESSORY and RUNpositions.  This lead should be connected so the vehicle fuse protection isused.  See Figure 6.NOTEThe DB-25 male connector that connects to the option cable isuser-supplied.
19CAUTIONThe “Accessory” point should drop to ZERO volts whencranking the engine and return to +12 volts after theengine is started. If a point is chosen that drops to avoltage between zero and +12 volts, the radio mayexecute a power-up cycle several times during start up.  Itis recommended that the terminal be measured with avoltmeter to be sure it shuts OFF (goes to zero volts)during the cranking of the engine.Certain problems may be encountered when accessoryequipment is connected to the ignition or accessory linesof the vehicle, where these lines may have large filtercapacitors and a leakage path present.  If the radio doesnot turn OFF within a reasonable amount of time after theignition is turned off, first try a different accessory orignition A+ pick up point in the vehicle.  Many vehicleshave more than one circuit that is switched by the ignitionswitch, and one may be available that does not have largefilter capacitors or a leakage path present.If a different pickup point cannot be found, then add a470-ohm, 1-watt resistor from the ignition A+ pick pointto ground. This will discharge the capacitor(s) or reducethe leakage voltage to a low value.  Current drain throughthis resistor will be minimal (less than 0.03A) when theignition is switched ON.
20Figure 7 – Mounting Bracket and Mounting Bracket Hardware KitRadio Mounting ProceduresThe following procedures are used to mount the radio.1. Using the bracket as a template, mark and drill the mounting holesusing a No. 31 (1/8) drill bit.  Be sure to leave enough room at the rearof the radio unit for the cable connections and airflow.CAUTIONBe careful to avoid damaging some vital part (fuel tank,transmission housing, etc.) of the vehicle when drillingmounting holes.  Always check to see how far themounting screws will extend below the mounting surfacebefore installing.If pilot holes must be drilled, remove all metal shavingsfrom drilling holes before installing screws.2. Mount the bracket using the four 3/4” Phillips sheet metal screws andspacers provided in the mounting bracket hardware kit.  (Refer toFigure 8.)
21Figure 8 – Mounting Bracket Installation3. Place the radio into the mounting bracket and secure with the four 3/8”Phillip’s screws supplied.
