RF ENERGY EXPOSURE AWARENESS AND CONTROL
INFORMATION FOR FCC OCCUPATIONAL USE REQUIREMENTS
Before using the two-way mobile radio, review the following important RF energy awareness and
control information and operational instructions. Comply with this information and instructions in
order to ensure compliance with RF exposure guidelines.
WARNING
CAUTION
This radio is intended for use in occupational/controlled conditions, where users
have full knowledge of their exposure and can exercise control over their
exposure to remain below RF exposure limits. This radio is NOT authorized for
general population, consumer, or any other use.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Harris could void the user's
authority to operate the equipment.
This two-way radio uses electromagnetic energy in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum to provide
communications between two or more users over a distance. It uses RF energy or radio waves to send and
receive calls. RF energy is one form of electromagnetic energy. Other forms include, but are not limited
to, electric power, sunlight, and x-rays. RF energy, however, should not be confused with these other
forms of electromagnetic energy, which, when used improperly, can cause biological damage. Very high
levels of x-rays, for example, can damage tissues and genetic material.
Experts in science, engineering, medicine, health, and industry work with organizations to develop
standards for exposure to RF energy. These standards provide recommended levels of RF exposure for
both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins
of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to
14221-1510-4000
ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend
specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios. These instructions are important because they
inform users about RF energy exposure and provide simple procedures on how to control it. Refer to the
following websites for more information on what RF energy exposure is and how to control exposure to
assure compliance with established RF exposure limits:
http://www.fcc.gov/oet/rfsafety/rf-faqs.html
http://www.osha.gov./SLTC/radiofrequencyradiation/index.html
1.2.1
Federal Communications Commission Regulations
Before it was marketed in the United States, the XG-25M two-way mobile radio was tested to ensure
compliance with FCC RF energy exposure limits for two-way mobile radios. When two-way radios are
used as a consequence of employment, the FCC requires users to be fully aware of and able to control
their exposure to meet occupational requirements. Exposure awareness can be facilitated by the use of a
label directing users to specific user awareness information. The radio has an RF exposure product label.
Also, this Installation and Product Safety Manual and the applicable Operator’s Manual include
information and operating instructions required to control RF exposure and to satisfy compliance
requirements.
1.3
COMPLIANCE WITH RF EXPOSURE STANDARDS
The XG-25M two-way mobile radio is designed and tested to comply with a number of national and
international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. This
radio complies with the IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure
environment at duty-cycle times of up to 50% (50% transmit, 50% receive), and it is authorized by the
FCC for occupational use. In terms of measuring RF energy for compliance with the FCC exposure
guidelines, the radio’s antenna radiates measurable RF energy only while it is transmitting (talking), not
when it is receiving (listening), or in a standby mode.
The XG-25M two-way mobile radio complies with the following RF energy exposure standards and
guidelines:
• United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Code of Federal Regulations; 47 CFR
§ 2 sub-part J.
• American National Standards Institute (ANSI)/Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE)
C95.1-2005.
• Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) C95.1-2005.
• IC Standard RSS-102, Issue 2, 2005: Spectrum Management and Telecommunications Radio
Standards Specification. Radiofrequency Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus
(All Frequency Bands).
CAUTION
Table 1-1 lists the recommended minimum safe lateral distances for a controlled
environment and for unaware bystanders in an uncontrolled environment, from
transmitting antennas (i.e., monopoles over a ground plane, or dipoles) at rated radio
power for mobile radios installed in a vehicle. Transmit only when unaware bystanders
are at least the uncontrolled recommended minimum safe lateral distance away from
the transmitting antenna.
Based on the highest radiated RF power and the highest antenna gain in antennas to be used with
XG-25M, the distances listed in Table 1-1 are considered as safe distances for controlled and uncontrolled
environments with the XG-25M mobile radio transmitting at a maximum 50% duty cycle:

1.6
COMMON HAZARDS
WARNING
•
The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards common to
the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. Possible hazards include but are
not limited to:
Explosive Atmospheres — Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle while its engine is running, be
sure to turn the radio OFF while fueling the vehicle. If the radio is mounted in the trunk of the
vehicle, DO NOT carry containers of fuel in the trunk.
Areas with potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. Turn the radio
OFF when in any area with a potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but not impossible that the
radio or its accessories could generate sparks.
•
Interference To Vehicular Electronic Systems — Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic antiskid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the types of electronic
devices that can malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency (RF) energy present
when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer for the make of vehicle
and enlist his/her aid in determining if such electronic circuits perform normally when the radio is
transmitting.
•
Electric Blasting Caps — To prevent accidental detonation of electric blasting caps, DO NOT use
two-way radios within 1000 feet (305 meters) of blasting operations. Always obey the “Turn Off
Two-Way Radios” (or equivalent) signs posted where electric blasting caps are being used. (OSHA
Standard: 1926.900).
•
Radio Frequency Energy — To prevent burns or related physical injury from radio frequency
energy, do not operate the transmitter when anyone outside of the vehicle is within the minimum safe
distance from the antenna as specified in Table 1-1. Refer to Section 1.2 for additional information.
14221-1510-4000
•
Vehicles Powered By Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas — Radio installation in vehicles powered by
liquefied petroleum gas, where the LP gas container is located in the trunk or other sealed-off space
within the interior of the vehicle, must conform to the National Fire Protection Association standard
NFPA 58. This requires:
 The space containing the radio equipment must be isolated by a seal from the space containing
the LP gas container and its fittings.
 Outside filling connections must be used for the LP gas container.
 The LP gas container space shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle.
•
1.7
Vehicles Equipped with Airbags — For driver and passenger safety, avoid mounting the radio’s
control head (or any other component) above or near airbag deployment areas. In addition to driverside and passenger-side front-impact airbags, some vehicles may also be equipped with side-impact
airbags. For occupant safety, verify the location of all airbags within the vehicle before installing the
radio equipment.
SAFE DRIVING RECOMMENDATIONS
The American Automobile Association (AAA) advocates the following key safe driving recommendations:
1.8
•
Read the literature on the safe operation of the radio.
•
Keep both hands on the steering wheel and the microphone in its hanger whenever the vehicle is in
motion.
•
Place calls only when the vehicle is stopped.
•
When talking from a moving vehicle is unavoidable, drive in the slower lane. Keep conversations
brief.
•
If a conversation requires taking notes or complex thought, stop the vehicle in a safe place and
continue the call.
•
Whenever using a mobile radio, exercise caution.
OPERATING RULES AND REGULATIONS
Two-way radio systems must be operated in accordance with the rules and regulations of the local,
regional, or national government.
In the United States, the XG-25M mobile radio must be operated in accordance with the rules and
regulations of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Operators of two-way radio equipment
must be thoroughly familiar with the rules that apply to the particular type of radio operation. Following
these rules helps eliminate confusion, assures the most efficient use of the existing radio channels, and
results in a smoothly functioning radio network.
When using a two-way radio, remember these rules:
10
•
It is a violation of FCC rules to interrupt any distress or emergency message. The radio operates in
much the same way as a telephone “party line.” Therefore, always listen to make sure the channel is
clear before transmitting. Emergency calls have priority over all other messages. If someone is
sending an emergency message – such as reporting a fire or asking for help in an accident, do not
transmit unless assistance can be offered.
•
The use of profane or obscene language is prohibited by Federal law.
14221-1510-4000
•
It is against the law to send false call letters or false distress or emergency messages. The FCC
requires keeping conversations brief and confined to business. Use coded messages whenever
possible to save time.
•
Using the radio to send personal messages (except in an emergency) is a violation of FCC rules. Send
only essential messages.
•
It is against Federal law to repeat or otherwise make known anything overheard on the radio.
Conversations between others sharing the channel must be regarded as confidential.
•
The FCC requires self-identification at certain specific times by means of call letters. Refer to the
rules that apply to the particular type of operation for the proper procedure.
•
No changes or adjustments shall be made to the equipment except by an authorized or certified
electronics technician.
CAUTION
1.9
Under U.S. law, operation of an unlicensed radio transmitter within the jurisdiction of
the United States may be punishable by a fine of up to $10,000, imprisonment for up to
two (2) years, or both.
OPERATING TIPS
The following conditions tend to reduce the effective range of two-way radios and should be avoided
whenever possible:
•
Operating the radio in areas of low terrain, or while under power lines or bridges.
•
Obstructions such as mountains and buildings.
NOTE
In areas where transmission or reception is poor, communication improvement may
sometimes be obtained by moving a few yards in another direction, or moving to a
higher elevation.

INTRODUCTION
This manual contains installation procedures for the XG-25M mobile radio and related options and
accessories. Procedures cover the mounting and cabling of the radio equipment, as well as basic invehicle radio test procedures. In addition, product safety-related information for the radio equipment is
included.
4.1
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The XG-25M mobile radio is a high-performance 136 to 174 MHz 50-Watt digital mobile radio. It can
operate in Project 25 (P25) conventional and analog conventional modes. The radio’s transmit output
power is rated at 50 watts, with the power level adjustable from 10 to 50 watts via radio personality
programming. The XG-25M is considered a front-mount radio, since its control head is an integral part of
the radio. The head cannot be mounted separately from the radio.

Figure 4-1: XG-25M Mobile Radio — Front and Rear Views
The XG-25M radio is designed to operate in a mobile environment, typically within a motor vehicle. It
must be connected to an external transmit/receive antenna such as one mounted to the vehicle’s rooftop or
trunk lid. Several different types of external-mount antennas are approved and available for use with the
radio, as listed in Table 1-1 and in Table 5-3.
20
14221-1510-4000
The radio provides half-duplex voice and data communications. Voice communications are accomplished
via a “push-to-talk” (PTT) type microphone and an external speaker connected to the radio’s control head.
The radio’s control head features a large text and graphics-based liquid-crystal display (LCD), and front
panel controls for user control of the radio.
The XG-25M must be powered by an external +13.6-volt (nominal) DC power source. In mobile
applications, the motor vehicle’s electrical system is utilized as the source of DC power. Specifications
are included in Section 3 of this manual.
The XG-25M may be equipped with an optional built-in Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking
receiver. The GPS antenna can be integrated into the mobile transmit/receive antenna (i.e., a
“combination” antenna). Alternately, the GPS antenna can be located/mounted completely separate from
the mobile transmit/receive antenna.
The XG-25M exceeds many tough environmental specifications included within military standard
MIL-STD-810G, the radio industry standard TIA/EIA-603, and the radio standard established by the U.S.
Forest Service.
The radio supports operation on APCO Project 25 compliant Common Air Interface (P25 CAI) radio
networks, and operation in a talk-around mode in accordance with the APCO Project 25. P25 radio
systems utilize Improved Multi-Band Excitation (IMBE) speech and data compression technology,
developed by Digital Voice Systems, Inc.
CAUTION
4.2
Harris recommends the buyer use only an authorized representative to install and
service this product. The warranties provided to the buyer under the terms of sale shall
be null and void if this product is installed or serviced improperly, and Harris shall have
no further obligation to the buyer for any damage caused to the product or to any person

RADIO PROGRAMMING
Unless otherwise stated, all radio installation and test procedures presented in this manual assume the
radio has been programmed by radio network administration personnel before it is delivered to radio
installation personnel.

6.3
LOCATING COMPONENTS
Plan the mounting locations of all components (radio, antenna, and cables) and determine the routes for
all wiring and cables. Particularly consider the connection of the radio for planning purposes.
•
Determine the customer’s preferences, if any, for location of components. Comply with these
preferences as long as they are consistent with safety recommendations and guidelines presented in
this manual and other generally accepted professional radio installation practices.
•
The radio may be mounted below or above the vehicle’s dash, or at some other location per customer
requirements, available space, and/or mounting surface strength. Dimensions for the radio are listed
in Section 3.1 on page 18. As noted in that section, these dimensions do not include space required at
the rear of the radio for cables. Several inches of clearance space is required.
•
When selecting a mounting location, verify sufficient clearance behind the radio can be maintained so
cables will not be stressed, crushed, twisted, or bent at severe angles. Also, the front and sides of the
radio must have clearance for air circulation, access to mounting screws, mounting hardware, etc.
•
Verify the drilling of holes and the insertion of screws will not damage or interfere with any existing
vehicle components (for example, a fuel tank, fuel lines, the transmission housing, etc.), or any
existing vehicle wiring.
•
For antenna location and installation-related information, refer to Section 7.
CAUTION
The radio must be kept out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources. Adequate
free-air ventilation must be provided to its cooling fins. The radio will automatically
reduce its transmit RF output power when its ambient temperature exceeds
approximately +140° Fahrenheit (+60° Celsius).
CAUTION
All cables should have a service loop near each connector end. Do not bend the cables
at severe angles near the connector end. Above all, after all components are installed,
verify no cable is under any tension. Failure to do so may lead to damaged cables,
causing intermittent radio operation or complete radio failure.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION
7.1
ANTENNA MOUNTING LOCATIONS
WARNING
At this time, review all information presented in the REGULATORY AND
SAFETY INFORMATION section of this manual (see page 6). A transmitting
antenna must be installed in accordance with the guidelines presented in both the
REGULATORY AND SAFETY INFORMATION section, and in this section.
As a guide for determining the best possible mounting location in order to reduce human exposure to
radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic energy during transmit mode, see Table 1-1 and Figure 7-1.
Antennas must be mounted in one of four (4) possible locations on the vehicle. Figure 7-1 shows the
recommended locations and antenna part numbers. Also, see Table 5-3 for additional information. Always
follow the antenna manufacturer’s instructions when mounting an antenna.
7.1.1
Direct Center or Center-Rear of Rooftop
The center of the vehicle’s roof is the best location for a rooftop-mount antenna (location  in the
following figures). For optimal performance, the mounting area under the antenna must be flat with a
minimum radius of six (6) inches of metal ground plane. It must be located directly in the center of the
roof to minimize human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy. Other obstructions such as a light bar or
another antenna may prevent the antenna from being mounted in the direct center of the roof. In this case,
the antenna should be mounted a minimum of one foot away from and behind the obstruction but in the
middle of the roof with respect to the left and right sides of the vehicle (location  in the following
figures).
7.1.2
Center of Trunk Lid
Certain vehicles do not allow for the antenna to be placed in the center or center-rear of the roof. In this
case, the next best location for the antenna is in the direct center of the trunk lid (location  in the
following figures). In this case, an elevated-feed-point antenna is recommended. Although this type of
antenna does not require a metal ground plane, it must be located directly in the center of the trunk lid to
minimize human exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
7.1.3
Rear Deck Lid for Stand-Alone GPS Receive Antenna
If the XG-25M mobile radio does not use a GPS combination-type antenna and it is equipped with a GPS
receiver, a stand-alone GPS receive antenna must be separately located and mounted. The vehicle’s rear
deck lid (location  in the following figures) is the recommended mounting location for this case. This
locates the GPS antenna inside the vehicle.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
An antenna must be installed before completing the radio installation.
NOTE
Table 5-3 (page 25) and Figure 7-1 list the mobile radio antennas available for use with the respective
radio. As presented in the previous section, various mounting locations exist. Optimal performance is
achieved via a rooftop antenna mounted in the direct center of the motor vehicle’s roof.
7.2.1
Installing NMO Antenna Mounts AN-125001-001, -002, -003 and -004
These NMO style antenna mounts can each be used with several different antenna elements. Only limited
access under the mounting location is typically required. The installation procedure is presented in
Section 7.2.1.3.
7.2.1.1
Standard NMO Antenna Mounts AN-125001-001 and AN-125001-002
These standard ¾-inch NMO antenna mounts require a ¾-inch hole in a relatively flat area of the vehicle
body, with a vehicle metal thickness of between 0.020 and 0.040 inches. AN-125001-002 has a very-lowloss coax cable (LMR/RF-195 or equivalent).
7.2.1.2
Thick-Roof NMO Antenna Mounts AN-125001-003 and AN-125001-004
Both of these thick-roof NMO antenna mounts use either a ⅜ -inch or a ¾-inch mounting hole in a
relatively flat area of the vehicle body, with a vehicle metal thickness of between 0.040 and 0.1875 inches
(3/16-inch maximum thickness). AN-125001-004 has a very-low-loss coax cable (LMR/RF-195 or
equivalent).
NOTE
7.2.1.3
For thick-roof NMO antenna mounts AN-125001-003 or AN-125001-004, using a
⅜-inch mounting hole will require better access to the underside of the mounting
location than if a ¾-inch hole is used. This is because, in the case of a ⅜-inch hole, the
antenna mount’s bushing assembly must be inserted from the underside of the
mounting surface.
When using a ¾-inch mounting hole to mount thick-roof NMO antenna mounts
AN-125001-003 or AN-125001-004, the thickness of the mounting surface must be at
least ⅛-inch (0.125-inch minimum thickness). This requirement is due to the thickness
of the alignment ring used to center the bushing assembly within the ¾-inch mounting
hole.
Installation Procedure for Mounts AN-125001-001 through -004
1. Select the antenna mounting location in accordance with the information presented in Sections 1 and
7.1 of this manual. If necessary, contact the Technical Assistance Center for assistance. See page 22
for TAC contact information.
2. Verify no obstructions exist immediately below the respective mounting location on the underside of
the vehicle body, such as vehicle ribbing/body framing, a wiring harness, air bag equipment, etc. Also
verify there is a sufficient access path and clearance for the mount’s coax cable. If there is an
obstruction or insufficient clearance, select another nearby mounting location.
3. Measure and mark the center point of the selected antenna mounting location. Be sure to center the
mark from side-to-side of the vehicle.
30
14221-1510-4000
4. Obtain a hole saw specifically designed for drilling NMO mounting holes of the required diameter.
(e.g., Antenex/Laird Technologies model HS34 or equivalent for a ¾-inch hole; Antenex/Laird
Technologies model HS38 or equivalent for a ⅜-inch hole).
5. If the vehicle’s headliner panel, carpet, seats, or otherwise, is below the mounting location, move or
remove the headliner panel, etc. as necessary to protect it. Alternately, apply a heat-resistant mask
material (such as a fiberglass mat or thin sheet metal with masked edges) as required to “catch” the
metal shavings and the metal plug (if any) produced by the hole saw. The plug (if any) may be
relatively hot if/when it drops out of the saw upon completion of the hole drilling process. ⅜-inch
diameter hole saws generally produce only shavings, not plugs.
6. With the hole saw and a drill, drill a hole at the marked hole center point. Position the drill square to
(i.e., 90 degrees from) the vehicle mounting surface so paint immediately outside of the perimeter of
the hole is evenly removed.
CAUTION
Excessive use of the hole saw and/or failure to position the drill “square” with
(i.e., at a 90-degree angle from) the vehicle mounting surface may result in
damage to the metal mounting surface, in the area immediately outside of the
perimeter of the hole.
7. Ensure the saw removed the paint immediately around the hole as the drilling operation completes. If
not, do so by reinserting the saw completely into the hole and spinning it as required. This allows
proper grounding via the mount’s lock nut on the top of the mounting surface. On the bottom of the
mounting surface, the “teeth” of the mount’s bushing assembly may not provide a good ground due to
thick vehicle undercoating, thick primer, oxidation/rust, etc.
8. For a ¾-inch hole, feed the unterminated end of the mount’s coax cable into the hole from the top
surface of the vehicle until the mount’s bushing assembly is in position to drop into the hole. The
bushing should be tilted at a slight angle and fed into the hole. The threaded shank of the mount’s
bushing assembly will not fall through a ¾-inch hole.
For a ⅜ -inch hole, feed the threaded shank of the mount’s bushing assembly into the hole from the
underside of the mounting surface. Hold it into position until the lock nut is installed.
9. If installing a thick-roof antenna mount (⅜-inch shank) into a ¾-inch hole, place the alignment ring
onto the threaded shank of the mount. This ring has an approximate ¾-inch outside diameter.
10. A tube of synthetic lubricant is included with the antenna mount. Apply this lubricant to the mount’s
rubber O-ring. Do not get any lubricant on the center contact of the mount’s bushing assembly.
11. As illustrated in Figure 7-2 and Figure 7-3, add the O-ring (C) and lock nut (D) to the top of the
mount’s bushing assembly (A). With the O-ring in the groove in the underside of the lock nut, thread
the lock nut onto the bushing assembly. Be sure the O-ring remains in the groove before tightening
the lock nut.
12. Using a 15/16-inch open-end wrench, tighten the lock nut until it fully compresses the O-ring and
makes good contact with the vehicle mounting surface. The groove’s ridges on the bottom of the lock
nut must make full contact with the unpainted metal surface of the vehicle.
13. Install the antenna element per the procedure in Section 7.2.4.

7.2.2
Installing NMO Magnetic Antenna Mounts AN-125001-007 and
AN-125001-008
1. Thoroughly clean the bottom of the magnetic mount and the selected vehicle mounting surface by
removing all dust, dirt, etc.
2. Carefully place the magnet mount onto the metal surface of the vehicle at the selected location. The
coax cable exiting the mount’s base should be orientated towards the point at which it will enter into
the interior of the vehicle. Do not try to reposition it by sliding it on a painted metal surface.
3. Route the mount’s coax cable to the radio location, passing it by the trunk lid’s perimeter gasket, door
perimeter gasket, etc., as necessary.
4. Install the antenna element per the procedure in Section 7.2.4.
32
14221-1510-4000
CAUTION
7.2.3
To remove a magnetic antenna mount, hold it at the bottom of its base and tilt it at an
angle to release the magnetic attraction force. Do not pull on the mount’s coax cable.
Do not drag the mount across the mounting surface.
Installing All Other Antenna Mounts
For any other type of antenna mount not covered in the previous sections, such as GPS combination
antennas, install the mount in accordance with the installation instructions included with the mount.
7.2.4
Attaching NMO Antenna Elements
1. Clean the top surface of the NMO mount and the surface of the vehicle immediately around the
mount.
2. Place the gasket included with the antenna element (not pictured in Figure 7-2 or Figure 7-3) around
the mount and against the surface of the vehicle. If a lubricant or sealant was included with the
gasket, apply it to the gasket before placing the gasket.
3. Apply the antenna element to the top of the mount and tighten it in a clock-wise direction (as viewing
from the top). Use an appropriate wrench if required. Do not over-tighten.
4. Install a placard (not supplied) on the vehicle’s dash panel, in accordance with the following
CAUTION. Place the placard in plain view of the vehicle operator’s position.
Before entering any automatic vehicle (“car”) wash equipment, remove the antenna
element from the antenna mount, and secure the element in a safe location inside the
vehicle. This will prevent the wash equipment from damaging the element and/or
mount. After exiting the wash equipment, thoroughly dry the top of the mount before
re-installing the element.
CAUTION
5. Continue with the connection procedure presented in the next section.
7.2.5
Installing the Coax Cable and TNC RF Connector
1. Route the coax cable from the antenna mount to the location where the mobile radio will be installed.
Remove headliner panel, interior panels, etc., as necessary. The cable must be kept out of casual
contact from persons within the vehicle. Tie and stow the cable as necessary to protect it from
possible chafing. Observe and follow this WARNING:
Do not cut an antenna cable any shorter than six (6) feet (1.83 meters), as measured
from the base of the antenna mount to the TNC connector that mates to the radio.
WARNING
2. Using an appropriate crimp tool, crimp the supplied TNC RF connector to the end of the antenna
cable. For crimping instructions, see Figure 7-4 or the instructions supplied with antenna mount.
3. The antenna cable is connected to the radio’s TNC receptacle-type (female) RF connector per a

NOTE
7.2.6
If the mobile radio installation includes unity-gain antenna element part number
AN-225006-001, this element must be tuned (trimmed) for maximum performance
(i.e., minimum reflection) during the test procedures presented in Section 15. Other
antennas used with the radio are factory-tuned and therefore do not require tuning in
the field.
Install GPS Antenna (Required Only if Radio has GPS Receiver Option)
If the XG-25M radio is equipped with the GPS receiver option, the GPS receiver requires connection to
an externally-mounted GPS antenna. The GPS antenna must be kept at least six (6) inches away from any
other antenna mounted on the vehicle and it must have at least six inches of surface ground plane beneath
it.
NOTE
Connection to a GPS antenna is only required if the (optional) GPS receiver is installed
in the radio and if its functions will be utilized/required. Refer to Section 12 for
additional information.
A combination (“combo”) antenna kit includes a GPS antenna built into the base of the
mobile antenna. Refer to Table 5-3 (page 25) for available combo antennas.

Installation Procedure for Inside-Rear-Deck Mounting in Ford Crown Vic
The following GPS antenna installation procedure is recommended for inside-rear-deck mounting of GPS
receive-only antennas, such as AN-025187-001 or AN-025187-003, in a Ford Crown Victoria. Other
vehicle makes/models may use similar installation scenarios:
1. Carefully remove the center rear
brake light assembly by removing
the screws on each side of the
assembly. Lift and set it aside.
2. Route the cable from the GPS
antenna through the rear deck,
next to the cable assembly for the
rear brake light.
3. Position the antenna near the rear glass.
For an antenna that is not a magnetic-mount, secure it to the deck
near the rear glass in accordance with the instructions provided with
the GPS antenna.
4. Reassemble the rear deck brake light assembly while using caution
to not to crimp/pinch the GPS coaxial cable. A small relief notch
may need to be cut in the housing of the light assembly cable
passage.
5. The cable and its (male) SMA connector must be protected from damage, dirt, and/or metal shavings
which may be generated during the mechanical and electrical installation of the radio. Temporarily
tying the connector and cable-end in a small plastic bag is recommended.
6. Route the cable to the area near where the radio will be installed. Tie and stow the antenna cable as
necessary to prevent cable chafing or damage from moving items, like the trunk lid’s hinges and
springs. The antenna cable is connected to the radio’s SMA receptacle-type (female) RF connector

RADIO INSTALLATION
8.1
MOUNTING THE RADIO
The Mounting Bracket Kit for the radio includes a heavy-gauge steel U-shaped mounting bracket. The
radio should be attached to a mounting surface using this bracket. The bracket can be mounted above or
below the radio. Kit contents are shown in Figure 8-2, and bracket dimensions are shown in Figure 8-3.
Both the radio and the mounting bracket have multiple holes in both sides for adjusting the radio within
the bracket. The design allows for both front-to-rear tilting of the radio within the bracket for the best
viewing angle, and a front-to-rear position offset. The radio has six (6) threaded mounting holes, three (3)
per side, and the mounting bracket has ten (10) corresponding holes, five (5) per side. The radio must be
secured to the bracket using at least four of the six M5 socket-head screws included in the Mounting
Bracket Kit (2 screws per side).
Typically, the radio is front-to-rear centered within the bracket. However, it can be front-to-rear offset by
approximately 2 inches (5.1 centimeters), if required. Also, the radio can be positioned straight in the
bracket (i.e., parallel with the bottom surface of the bracket), or it can be tilted up or down at an angle of
between approximately 10 to 20 degrees. When positioned straight and centered front-to-rear within the
bracket, the radio extends approximately 2.5 inches (6.4 centimeters) from the front and rear edges of the
bracket. In the rear, additional clearance must be included for cables. The area directly at the front of the
radio must be completely clear of all objects (e.g., gear shift, other radio equipment, etc.) so the operator
can easily access and view the radio’s control head.
The mounting bracket must be attached to a secure metal surface that meets or exceeds the minimum
1/16-inch-thick steel sheet metal requirement in accordance with the following WARNING. For example,
it can be attached directly to the bottom of the dash if the gauge of the sheet metal is high and the surface
is firm and flat, or it can be attached to the transmission hump, etc., if a mounting wedge (not included) is
utilized. The radio weighs approximately 6 pounds (2.7 kilograms).
WARNING
CAUTION
36
At a minimum, the mounting surface should be 16-gauge (approximately 1/16-inch
thick) steel sheet metal. Mounting to plastic or other material with low tensile and
shear strength could lead to an unsafe and/or failed mounting condition, turning
the radio and its mounting bracket into a projectile during a high-shock incident
such as a motor vehicle accident. If the selected mounting surface does not meet
the minimum 16-gauge steel sheet metal requirement, the surface should be
reinforced with a metal backing plate (not supplied) or it should be reinforced
using some other approved mounting method.
In addition to improving safety of the installation, firm mounting also prevents
unreasonable vibration that could damage the radio, adversely affect transceiver
performance and/or cause its cable connections to loosen. An improperly mounted radio
may experience degradation in the quality of voice and data communications.

When selecting a mounting location for the radio, verify sufficient clearance can be maintained around
the radio for installation and service access. A minimum clearance of approximately four (4) inches
(10 centimeters) is recommended at the rear, left and right sides of the radio. As previously stated, the
area directly at the front of the radio must be completely clear of objects so the operator can easily access
and view the radio’s control head.
As illustrated in Figure 8-3, the bracket is both left-to-right and front-to-rear symmetrical. It has eleven
(11) holes for securing it to a mounting surface. At least four (4) of these holes must be used to secure the
bracket to the mounting surface. Five 20-millimeter-long self-tapping screws are included in the
Mounting Bracket Kit for this purpose. However, some other type of hardware (not supplied) may be
used, such as #10-32 stainless-steel self-locking hardware (i.e., machine screws with washers and locking
nuts), or self-drilling screws. Self-drilling screws such as “TEK” screws do not require drilling of a pilot
hole prior to installation. Do not use common self-threading sheet metal screws because they will loosen
over time with vehicle vibrations.
The following mounting procedure is recommended:
1. Determine the best radio-to-bracket position and angle by test-fitting the radio into the mounting
bracket at the selected vehicle mounting location. Slide the radio between the sides of the bracket and
temporarily secure it to the bracket with several of the M5 socket-head screws from the bracket kit.
When positioned straight and centered front-to-rear within the bracket, the radio extends
approximately 2.5 inches (6.4 centimeters) from the front and rear edges of the bracket. In the rear,
additional clearance must be included for cables. The area directly at the front of the radio must be
completely clear of all objects (e.g., gear shift, other radio equipment, etc.) so the operator can easily
access and view the radio’s control head.
2. At the rear of the radio, verify sufficient clearance is available for cables and service access.

3. If the mounting surface is not flat (such as the top of a transmission hump), construct a suitable
mounting wedge as necessary, and attach the wedge to the surface using an approved attachment
method. Never mount the bracket directly to a non-flat surface.
4. On the mounting surface, mark the selected location for the bracket, and then remove the radio from
the bracket.
5. Clean and remove any foreign material from the mounting surface.
6. Using the bracket as a template, and/or the dimensional information shown in Figure 8-3, mark and
drill at least four (4) mounting holes into the mounting surface as required per the type of hardware
used.
39
14221-1510-4000
CAUTION
Before drilling holes and/or installing mounting screws, verify these operations will not
damage or interfere with any existing vehicle component (the fuel tank, a fuel line, the
transmission housing, existing vehicle wiring, etc.). Always check to see how far the
mounting screws will extend below the mounting surface prior to installation. Always
deburr drilled holes before installing screws.
7. Temporarily remove the bracket and deburr all of the newly drilled holes.
8. If necessary, apply an approved paint or rust-inhibitor at the holes in the mounting surface.
9. Set the bracket back into place.
10. Install and tighten the mounting screws/hardware.
11. Verify the bracket is firmly secured to the mounting surface. A secure mount prevents unreasonable
vibration, which could damage the radio and/or cause its cable connections to loosen.
12. If the rear of the radio is easily accessible when the radio is positioned in the selected position within
the bracket, it is recommended that the radio be temporarily inserted into the bracket. Otherwise, do
not mount the radio into the bracket at this time, because several cable connections must be made at
the rear of the radio.
8.1.2
Inserting the Radio into the Mounting Bracket
The radio should now be inserted into the mounting bracket according to this procedure:
1. Lay the radio into the mounting bracket with the front of the radio facing in the correct direction
(usually towards the rear of the vehicle).
2. Secure the radio to the bracket using at least four (4) of the six (6) M5 x 10 mm stainless-steel sockethead screws included with the Mounting Bracket Kit. These screws have captive lockwashers. Kit
contents are shown in Figure 8-2. This kit is Item 1 listed in Table 5-2 (page 24).
3. Tighten all screws using a 4-millimeter hex key wrench until each lockwasher is fully compressed
and the radio is firm and flush in between the brackets.
4. Check the mounting area for proper clearance for cable service looping and for air circulation, plus an
area to secure and rest the excess cable lengths.
NOTE
8.2
Proper mounting is one factor that ensures optimal radio performance. An improperly
mounted radio may experience degradation in the quality of voice and data
communications.
DC POWER CABLE INSTALLATION
8.2.1
Overview of On/Off Power Wiring Configurations
The following power wiring configurations are supported:
•
40
Radio turns on and off automatically with vehicle’s ignition switch/key — This configuration
allows the on/off state of the vehicle’s ignition switch/key to control the on/off power state of the
radio. The white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable is connected to a fused switched power source,
typically identified as vehicle “Accessory” power. This source must switch on (up to positive (+)
battery voltage potential) when the vehicle’s ignition switch/key turns on, and it must switch off (to
near zero volts) when the ignition switch/key turns off. The required fuse rating is 3 amperes. When
14221-1510-4000
using this configuration, the on/off/volume control must be left in the on position for automatic
power-up/down to function properly.
•
Radio turns on and off with a manual switch — This configuration is used when, for example, the
radio has to remain on even when the ignition key must be removed from the vehicle and a separate
on/off switch is acceptable. The white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable is connected to one side of
a manually-controlled switch, and the other side of this switch is connected to unswitched and fused
vehicle power. The required fuse rating is 3 amperes. When using this configuration, the
on/off/volume control must be left in the on position for automatic power-up/down to function
properly.
•
Radio turns on with its on/off/volume control (“hot wired”) — This configuration allows radio
on/off power control only via its on/off/volume control. It may be desired if, for example, the radio
has to remain on even when the ignition key must be removed from the vehicle and a separate on/off
switch is not desired and/or not acceptable. The white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable must be
connected to unswitched and fused vehicle power. The required fuse rating is 3 amperes.
In all of the above cases, the radio’s main DC power input (red wire) must be connected through an inline fuse to unswitched vehicle DC power. The red wire must be connected to raw battery power (positive
battery terminal) via the supplied fuse.
8.2.2
DC Power Cable and Main Fuse Holder Installation
The radio’s DC Power Cable has a 3-pin connector, a 20-foot red wire (for the main power connection), a
20-foot white wire (for the switched power source connection), and a 4-foot black wire (for the ground
connection). It is supplied with waterproof fuse holders, two AGC-type fuses, and non-insulated ring
terminals. The following installation procedures are recommended:
8.2.2.1
Black Wire Connection (Ground Wire)
1. Connect the radio’s DC Power Cable to the radio by mating its 3-pin connector to the radio’s 3-pin
power cable connector as follows: Visually align the key and firmly push and turn the outer locking
ring clockwise until it stops. A click will be sensed to confirm proper mating.
2. Prepare to connect the cable’s black wire to vehicle ground by locating an area of vehicle metal
within approximately two (2) feet of the radio. This surface must have a solid and stable connection
to vehicle ground. If not, add grounding strap(s) as necessary.
3. Strip the area of any paint or dirt to expose a bare metal surface, approximately ¾-inch square.
4. Drill a hole in the approximate center of the bare metal surface, and deburr it. A ⅜-inch non-insulated
ring terminal is supplied with the cable to make this ground connection. Therefore, hole diameter
should be appropriate for the utilized grounding screw/bolt size and type used to connect the ring
terminal to the bare metal surface. This hardware is not supplied.
5. Cut the black wire to the required length plus some additional length for a service loop, then strip
insulation back approximately ¼-inch.
6. Crimp a ⅜-inch non-insulated ring terminal (supplied with the cable) to the end of the black wire.
7. Attach the ring terminal and black wire to the bare metal surface using stainless-steel self-locking
hardware (i.e., machine screws with washers and locking nuts) or other appropriate hardware to
ensure a reliable terminal-to-metal contact. Tighten securely.
8. Apply an approved paint or rust-inhibitor over the remaining exposed bare metal surface and around
the ring terminal.
41
14221-1510-4000
8.2.2.2
Red Wire and Main Fuse Holder Connection (Radio’s Main Power Wire)
1. Continue installation of the radio’s DC Power Cable by routing its 20-foot 10-AWG red wire to the
location of the vehicle’s battery (or its main DC bus bar or stud). Remove interior panels, door kick
panels, etc., and route the wire through existing channels in the vehicle body as necessary. Protect the
wire from possible chafing where necessary. Tie and stow the wire as necessary.
CAUTION
CAUTION
WARNING
Plan the routing of the 10-AWG red wire carefully, using an existing access hole in the
vehicle’s firewall if possible. Alternately, drill a new hole approximately ½-inch in
diameter and install a small rubber grommet (one supplied with the bracket kit) to
protect the wire from chafing at the hole’s sharp metal edge. To prevent fumes from
entering the passenger compartment, this hole/grommet/wire combination must
also be sealed with a silicon-based sealer before completing the installation.
Do not install any wiring or fuse holder over or in the near vicinity of the vehicle’s
engine. Excessive engine heat can cause permanent damage to these components and
can lead to intermittent electrical connection to the battery.
Before making connections to the battery’s positive post, carefully disconnect the
battery’s negative (ground) cable(s). This will prevent tools or other metallic
objects which come in contact with the battery’s positive terminal from shorting to
vehicle ground, causing sparks or even a fire or an explosion! When disconnecting
the negative cable(s), cover/insulate the positive post(s) if it is not already so a tool
cannot short between the posts. Some vehicles, such as those with diesel engines
have more than one battery; in this case, disconnect the negative cables at all
batteries.
Radio fuses should not be installed until all wiring is complete. This will prevent
the radio from powering up prematurely and/or causing an in-rush of current that
could lead to shorting of the battery, sparks, or even fire.
2. Obtain the orange waterproof (HFB type) fuse holder included with the DC Power Cable.
3. Observe and follow the previously presented WARNING!
4. Cut the red wire to the required length for connection to the battery’s positive (+) battery terminal (or
the main DC bus bar or stud).
5. Prepare to splice the fuse holder into the red wire by cutting it again, at approximately three (3) to six
(6) inches from the end.
6. Strip all three (3) wire ends back approximately ⅜-inch, place a fuse holder shell on each wire, and
securely crimp a fuse holder terminal to each wire end. Before crimping, verify fuse holder shells are
oriented in the correct directions (i.e., with each large end towards the wire end).
7. Label this fuse holder and red wire appropriately (e.g., “VHF Radio Main Power: 15-AMP FUSE”).
8. Do NOT install a fuse into the fuse holder at this time.
9. Crimp an appropriate electrical terminal to the short red wire. A corrosion-resistant ⅜-inch ring
terminal is included with the cable for this purpose, but another size corrosion-resistant terminal type
(not supplied) may be used if required.
42
14221-1510-4000
10. Connect the ring terminal directly to the battery’s positive post (or if present, to a stud on the battery’s
main/non-switched power distribution terminal block).
8.2.2.3
White Wire Connection
A review of the information presented in Section 8.2.1 (page 40) may be beneficial at this time. As
required per the chosen power-up configuration, connect the white wire by following one of the three
procedures presented in the respective sub-section that follows.
8.2.2.3.1
Radio Turns On and Off with Vehicle’s Ignition Switch/Key
With this wiring configuration, the radio automatically turns on and off with the vehicle’s ignition
switch/key. The white wire is sometimes referred to as the “white ignition switch wire” or the “ignition
sense input wire.” In this configuration, the white wire connects to a switched power source, typically
identified as “Accessory” power, that switches on and off with the vehicle’s ignition switch/key. When
using this configuration, the on/off/volume control must be left in the on position for automatic powerup/down to function properly.
NOTE
The white ignition sense wire must be connected to a fused power source that switches
from approximately zero volts to approximately +13.6 volts when the vehicle’s ignition
switch/key is turned from the OFF position to the ACCESSORY and RUN positions.
Use of a switched power source that is subject to voltage changes as a result of other
actions, such as opening a vehicle door, may result in undesirable radio power cycles.
1. Locate the vehicle’s switched ignition or “Accessory” power connection point that will be used for
the switched ignition 12-volt DC power source. This point is typically located at or near the vehicle’s
fuse panel. It may be necessary to consult the vehicle manufacturer’s wiring diagram.
2. Route the white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable from the back of the radio to the area near this
connection point. Protect the wire from possible chafing as necessary.
3. Obtain the other waterproof (HFB-type) fuse holder included with the radio’s DC Power Cable.
4. Cut excess length from the white wire and splice the fuse holder into it, near the location of the
connection point.
5. Using an appropriate electrical terminal, connect the white wire to the switched power connection
point. An open-barrel spade terminal is included with the cable for this purpose, but another type of
terminal (not supplied) may be used as required.
6. Obtain the 3-amp AGC-type fuse included with the cable, and install it into the fuse holder.
7. Tie and stow all wiring as necessary so it remains out of the way of casual contact and wire chafe is
avoided.
43
14221-1510-4000
8.2.2.3.2
Radio Turns On and Off with a Manual Switch
With this wiring configuration, the radio is manually turned on and off via an on/off switch mounted
separately from the radio, not through the vehicle’s ignition switch/key. This configuration is used when,
for example, the radio must remain on even when the ignition key must be removed from the vehicle and
a separate on/off switch is acceptable and/or required. In this configuration, the white wire connects to a
fused switched power source such as that provided by a toggle switch mounted on the vehicle’s dash
panel. When using this configuration, the on/off/volume control must be left in the on position for
automatic power-up/down to function properly.
1. Route the white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable from the back of the radio to an area near the
location of the panel-mounted on/off switch. Protect the wire from possible chafing as necessary.
2. Cut a short section (6 to 8 inches) off the end of the white wire and strip the ends.
3. Obtain the other waterproof (HFB-type) fuse holder included with the radio’s DC Power Cable, and
crimp one half of it to one end of the short section of wire.
4. Using an appropriate electrical terminal, connect this short white wire to unswitched 12-volt DC
power source at or near the vehicle’s fuse box.
5. Cut another section of white wire from the cable. This wire must be long enough to reach from the
fuse holder to the location of the panel-mounted on/off switch.
6. Strip one end of this wire and crimp the other half of the waterproof fuse holder to this wire end.
7. Strip the other end of this wire and, using an appropriate electrical terminal, connect it to the common
terminal of the switch.
8. Connect the white wire of the power cable to the load (switched) side of the switch.
9. If not already, mount the switch to the vehicle’s dash panel, or other customer-selected location.
10. Obtain the 3-amp AGC-type fuse included with the cable, and install it into the fuse holder.
11. Tie and stow these wires as necessary so they remain out of the way of casual contact and wire chafe
is avoided.
12. Label this power switch accordingly. For example: “RADIO ON/OFF.”
8.2.2.3.3
Radio Is “Hot Wired”
In the “hot-wired” configuration, the radio is turned on and off only by the control head’s on/off/volume
control located on the front panel of the control head. In this configuration, the white wire must be
connected to unswitched and fused 12-volt vehicle power. Follow the procedure presented in Section
8.2.2.3.1, except connect the white wire to unswitched battery power instead of switched (“Accessory”)
power. Be sure to fuse this connection with the provided in-line fuse holder and 3-amp AGC fuse.
44
14221-1510-4000
EXTERNAL SPEAKER INSTALLATION (OPTIONAL)
The radio has a built-in speaker on its front panel. If a speaker external of the radio is required, install it in
according to the following procedure. Total available speaker cable length is approximately 10 feet
(308 centimeters). Therefore, to include service loops in these cables, the speaker must be mounted within
approximately 9.5 feet (290 centimeters) of the radio.
1. Select a location for the speaker that will allow for proper listening range with a moderate volume
setting.
2. Install the speaker using the hardware and mounting bracket supplied with it. For the speaker’s part
number, see Table 5-2 (page 24).
3. Route the speaker cable to the rear of the radio.
4. Connect the Option Cable 14002-0174-08 (item 3 in Table 5-2) to the DB-44 connector on the rear of
the radio. Tighten the cable’s two (2) jackscrews securely. See Section 11.1 for additional information
on this cable.
5. Mate the Option Cable’s 2-pin connector (identified P2) to the 2-pin connector on the end of the
speaker cable. A mild click will be sensed to confirm proper mating.
6. Route the cables out of the way of casual contact. Tie and stow as necessary.
10 MICROPHONE ATTACHMENT
There are several versions of microphones available for use with the radio. Each has a 12-pin connector
that mates with the mic connector on the front panel of the control head. A microphone clip is included
with each microphone. The radio can be configured to provide a monitor function when the microphone is
cradled in the clip. Connect the mic to the control head and install the clip as follows:
1. Position the mic’s connector just in front of the control head’s mic connector so it can engage straight
into the mic connector. The small notch on the end of the mic’s connector must be positioned straight
up so it engages with the key in the connector of the radio.
2. Mate the two connectors by pressing them fully together. A click should be sensed when the
connectors latch together.
3. Using the microphone clip as a template, drill mounting holes in the surface of the selected location.
4. Select a mounting surface location that has clearance for the mic when it is clipped to the clip, and
then attach the microphone clip to the surface. Use self-locking hardware (i.e., machine screws with
washers and locking nuts), self-drilling screws, or other appropriate hardware as necessary. Tighten
securely. The microphones have integrated hookswitches. Therefore, the microphone clip does not
require grounding.
5. Clip the microphone to the clip.

CAUTION
Observe caution before connecting any external device to the radio via its 44-pin I/O
connector. If an external device has its own DC power source/cable (i.e., if it is
powered separately from the radio), both the radio and the external device must be
properly grounded before connecting the two units and before making a positive (+)
power connection to either unit. Otherwise, fuse(s) inside the radio may fail (open)
and/or other equipment damage could occur.
Connector P2 is the cable’s 2-pin connector that provided connections for an optional speaker.
Connection is not required if only the radio’s internal speaker will be used.
Connector P3, the cable’s 6-pin connector, is a connector for basic accessories (e.g., hookswitch, etc.).
Connector P4, the cable’s D-subminiature 25-pin connector, provides audio and data connections for
optional equipment.
Connector P5, a D-subminiature 9-pin connector, provides NMEA-formatted GPS serial data connections
for the external computer processing the NMEA-formatted GPS data received by the radio’s internal GPS
receiver. See Section 12 on page 50 for additional information. This is serial port A of the radio.
Connector P6 provides a serial data interface used for radio programming. Like P5, this is a
D-subminiature 9-pin connector. This is serial port B of the radio.

11.2 SERIAL DATA CABLE CA-013671-020
Serial Data Cable CA-013671-020 (20 feet long) can be used to extend data connections from the radio to
data communications equipment such as a Mobile Data Terminal (MDT) or a GPS NMEA-format device.
The cable’s assembly and wiring diagrams are shown in Figure 11-2 below.
The cable’s male DB-9 connector (J1) mates to a female DB-9 serial port connector of Option Cable
14002-0174-08, either connector P5 or P6.
The cable’s female DB-9 connector (J2) mates to a PC’s male DB-9 serial port connector. If the utilized
PC is not equipped with a DB-9 serial port connector, the use of a suitable adapter is required, such as
USB-to-RS-232 Adapter Cable CN24741-0001. As of the publication of this manual, CN24741-0001 is
available via the Customer Care center; refer to Section 4.4 on page 22 for contact information.

Figure 11-2: Serial Data Cable CA-013671-020
12 GPS NMEA-FORMATTED DATA CONNECTION
To obtain GPS NMEA-formatted serial data from the radio, the radio must be equipped with the GPS
receiver option, and Option Cable 14002-0174-08 is required. For radios equipped with a GPS receiver,
follow this procedure to complete the GPS NMEA-formatted serial data connections:
1. Obtain Option Cable 14002-0174-08. Each “leg” of this cable is approximately 65 inches long (166
centimeters).
2. Connect the cable’s 44-pin D-subminiature (DB-44) male connector to the DB-44 female connector
on the rear panel of the radio. Tighten the two jackscrews with a small flathead screwdriver. Do not
over-tighten.
3. Connect the cable’s DB-9 female connector identified as P5 to the computer’s serial port DB-9 male
connector—either directly or extended via cable CA-013671-020 (a 20-foot-long cable); see Section
11.2. Tighten the screws firmly, and then route the cabling as required. If the computer is not
equipped with a DB-9 serial port connector, the use of a suitable adapter is required, such as
USB-to-RS-232 Adapter Cable CN24741-0001.
4. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions on processing the NMEA-formatted GPS data from the radio.
50
14221-1510-4000
NOTE
If the Option Cable 14002-0174-08 is not available, a 3-wire serial cable can be fieldfabricated. On the radio end, this cable must interface to the three GPS-related signals of
the radio’s 44-pin I/O Cable connector (pins 7, 31, and 32). See Table 11-1 for additional
information.
Industry software to process GPS information through this interface is not supported by Harris.
13 MOBILE DATA CONNECTION
If the radio installation must support mobile data communications of a computer running Mobile Data
Terminal (MDT) or similar software, follow this procedure to connect the computer to the radio:
1. Obtain cable CA-013671-020 (or equivalent). This is a 20-foot-long standard serial data cable.
2. Connect this cable’s male DB-9 connector to the female DB-9 connector on the rear of the radio.
Tighten the two (2) jackscrews securely.
3. Route the cable through the vehicle’s interior wire/cable channeling to the computer. Remove interior
panels, door kick panels, etc., as necessary. Protect the cable from possible chafing and tie-and-stow
it as necessary.
4. Connect the cable’s female DB-9 connector to the computer. If the computer is not equipped with a
DB-9 serial port connector, use a suitable adapter, such as USB-to-RS-232 Adapter Cable
CN24741-0001.
NOTE
Before data communications can occur on a P25 system, the respective data option must
be enabled. Contact the Technical Assistance Center (TAC) for additional information.
TAC contact information is included on page 22.
51
14221-1510-4000
14 INITIAL POWER-UP TEST
1. At the radio’s main waterproof (HFB-type) fuse holder installed near the vehicle battery, insert the
15-amp fuse that was included with the radio’s DC Power Cable.
2. Tie and stow all fuse holders at this location to prevent excess vibration/movement.
3. Carefully reconnect the vehicle’s battery ground cable.
4. If not already, temporarily connect the mobile antenna cable from the vehicle-mounted mobile
antenna to the female TNC RF connector on the rear panel of the radio. This is a temporary
connection until test procedures in Section 15 are complete.
5. If the radio is equipped with the GPS receiver option, permanently connect the antenna cable from the
GPS antenna (or mobile/GPS combo antenna) to the female SMA connector on the rear panel of the
radio. The male SMA connector on most GPS antenna cables has a 5/16-inch hex collar, so the use of a
wrench of this same size is normally required for tightening. However, some may have collars with
only knurled surfaces, so a standard wrench or torque wrench cannot be used. In either case, do not
over tighten the connector and do not twist the cable when tightening.
6. If the installation is wired so the vehicle’s ignition key/switch turns the radio on and off, turn the
switch to the Accessory or Run position.
7. If the radio is not already powered up, do so by rotating its on/off/volume control clockwise out of the
detent position.
8. Verify the radio has powered-up by observing its display. If the display is not functioning, refer to
Section 8.2.1 as necessary.
As long as the software configuration parameters have been loaded, successful installation is almost
immediately realized:
•
After a short boot-up sequence, the radio displays login information and/or a talk group.
•
If no errors are displayed, the installation is most-likely properly wired.
•
If an error is displayed, recheck all cable connections, verify all fuses are properly installed, and
verify battery power on the load side of the fuses, etc. If problems persist, contact the Technical
Assistance Center (see page 22).
•
Consult the Operator’s Manual for operational information.
Refer to Section 15 for performance test information.
52
14221-1510-4000
15 PERFORMANCE TESTS
This section includes procedures to verify the performance of the installation’s mobile antenna system.
There are three (3) procedures in this section:
•
Changing Operating Mode for Tests
•
Testing by Transmitting into a Dummy Load (a 50-Ohm RF Terminator)
•
Testing by Transmitting into the Mobile Antenna
CAUTION
The accuracy of test results depends upon a DC power source in the range of 13.6 volts
DC ±10%. The current capacity of the power source must be greater than 15 amps.
Make sure the vehicle’s battery is fully charged by running the engine for a few
minutes before the test, and keep the engine running during the test procedures. Abide
by the following WARNING!
If the vehicle’s engine must remain running, the vehicle location should be well
ventilated so exhaust fumes from the engine do not cause harm!
WARNING
CAUTION
NOTE
If a vehicle equipped with this radio requires jump-starting, the radio installation’s
main fuse should be removed from the holder prior to jump-starting. Doing so will
prevent damage to the radio system.
Prior to installation, the radio’s power level should be configured appropriately. The
wide range of power levels indicated in the following procedures takes into account
such things as: customer’s requirements; measurement errors, especially to include
uncalibrated equipment; cabling losses; and voltage and temperature variations. By no
means should the result from Performance Testing in this section be construed as the
exact value of power level output from the radio, as the value is set and more
accurately measured in the factory. The values obtained in these test procedures
determine a successful installation only.

7. Key the radio’s transmitter via the microphone’s PTT button.
8. Compare the wattmeter’s reading with the target RF output power range of between 39.8 and 63
watts (50 watts ±1 dB). This transmit output power range assumes the radio is currently configured at
the maximum transmit power level.
Transmit only for as long as needed to take the measurement, then immediately
disable the transmission.
NOTE
9. If the wattmeter reading is within the range, record the measured value in the appropriate space on
the data collection form near the end of this manual.
If the wattmeter reading is outside the range, verify the radio’s power supply voltage (i.e., battery
voltage) is within the specified range, recheck all connections, and measure the RF output power
again. If this fails to produce a reading within the range, replace it and repeat this procedure. If
problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center (see page 22).
15.3 TRANSMITTING INTO THE MOBILE ANTENNA
1. Connect the antenna cable from the vehicle-mounted antenna to the wattmeter as shown in Figure
15-1.
2. If not already, turn the radio on and set it to the required operating mode (based upon available radio
programming and test equipment).
3. Set the radio to a test talk group or conventional channel, if available.
55
14221-1510-4000
NOTE
It is recommended that a test talk group/channel be allocated for this testing.
Otherwise, interference with other radio users in the system may occur. Also, during
transmissions, always observe the RF exposure-related safety information
presented in Section 1.2 (begins on page 6).
4. Position the wattmeter’s element to measure forward RF output power. Rotate it if necessary. The
arrow on the face of the element must point away from the radio and towards the antenna for forward
power measurements.
5. Set the wattmeter to measure average RF power.
6. Key the radio’s transmitter via the microphone’s PTT button.
7. Compare the wattmeter’s reading with the target RF output power range of between 39.8 and 63
watts (50 watts ±1 dB). This transmit output power range assumes the radio is currently configured at
the maximum transmit power level.
Transmit only for as long as needed to take the measurement, then immediately
disable the transmission.
NOTE
8. If the wattmeter reading is within the range, record the value in the appropriate space on the data
collection form near the end of this manual.
If the wattmeter reading is outside the range, verify the radio’s power supply voltage (i.e., battery
voltage) is within the specified range, recheck all connections, and measure the forward power again.
If the installation employs a ¼-wave unity-gain antenna, observe the following NOTE. If these
checks/corrections fail to produce a reading within the range, check all cabling and connections and
repeat the testing procedure to this point. In the event the wattmeter reading still falls outside the
range, replace the antenna, make sure all connections are seated firmly, and repeat the testing
procedure. If problems persist, contact the Technical Assistance Center (see page 22).
NOTE
If the mobile radio installation employs a ¼-wave unity-gain antenna (part number
AN-225006-001), the driven element (i.e., whip) of the antenna must be trimmed to
the proper length in order to minimize antenna system VSWR. Refer to the
instructions included with the antenna for trimming instructions.
9. Position the wattmeter’s element to measure reverse (reflected) RF power from the antenna. The
arrow on the face of the element must point away from the antenna and to the radio to measure
reverse power.
10. Key the radio’s transmitter via the microphone’s PTT button.
11. Compare the wattmeter reading with the RF power output range of 2 watts or less.
Transmit only for as long as needed to take the measurement, then immediately disable
the transmission.
NOTE
56
14221-1510-4000
12. If the wattmeter reading is within the range, record the value in the appropriate space on the data
collection form near the end of this manual.
If the wattmeter reading is outside the range, make sure the antenna is consistent with the specified
frequency range of the radio. Recheck all antenna connections, and measure the reverse power again.
If the installation employs a ¼-wave unity-gain antenna, observe the NOTE that immediately follows
step 8. If these checks/corrections fail to produce a reading within the range, replace the antenna and
repeat the entire antenna test procedure. Any value exceeding the maximum allowable reflected
power value will result in a diminished RF output signal. If problems persist, contact the Technical
Assistance Center (see page 22).
13. Disconnect the coaxial cable jumper and wattmeter.
14. Permanently connect the cable from the vehicle-mounted antenna to the radio’s antenna cable by
mating the two TNC connectors together. Use two pairs of soft-jaw pliers to gently tighten this
connection. Do not over tighten and do not twist either cable.
15. Make several test calls on the radio system to verify operation of the mobile radio. Before making the
calls, select other talk groups or conventional channels, as required to verify operation.
To prevent RF leakage and ensure peak performance, make sure the RF connectors are
tight, but do not over-tighten so connector damage will not occur.
NOTE
Improper installation of the RF cables may lead not only to poor radio
performance but also to harmful exposure to RF electromagnetic energy.
WARNING
Testing is complete. The radio is now ready for normal communications.

18 WARRANTY
A. Harris Corporation, a Delaware Corporation, through its RF Communications Division (hereinafter
"Seller") warrants to the original purchaser for use (hereinafter "Buyer") that Equipment manufactured
by or for the Seller shall be free from defects in material and workmanship, and shall conform to its
published specifications. With respect to all non-Seller Equipment, Seller gives no warranty, and only
the warranty, if any, given by the manufacturer shall apply. Rechargeable batteries are excluded
from this warranty but are warranted under a separate Rechargeable Battery Warranty (ECR-7048).
B. Seller’s obligations set forth in Paragraph C below shall apply only to failures to meet the above
warranties occurring within the following periods of time from date of sale to the Buyer and are
conditioned on Buyer’s giving written notice to Seller within thirty (30) days of such occurrence:
1. for fuses and non-rechargeable batteries, operable on arrival only.
2. for parts and accessories (except as noted in B.1 and B.5), ninety (90) days.
3. for XG-25P, XG-75, P7300, P7200, P7100IP, P5500, P5400, P5300, P5200, P5100, P3300,
M7300, M7200 (including V-TAC), M7100IP, M5300, M3300 and SG5300 radios, two (2) years,
effective 10/01/2007.
4. for Unity® XG-100P and XG-100M, three (3) years.
5. for Six-Bay battery Chargers (12082-0314-xx and CH-104570-xxx), one (1) year.
6. for all other equipment of Seller’s manufacture, one (1) year.
C. If any Equipment fails to meet the foregoing warranties, Seller shall correct the failure at its option (i)
by repairing any defective or damaged part or parts thereof, (ii) by making available at Seller’s factory
any necessary repaired or replacement parts, or (iii) by replacing the failed Equipment with equivalent
new or refurbished Equipment. Any repaired or replacement part furnished hereunder shall be
warranted for the remainder of the warranty period of the Equipment in which it is installed. Where
such failure cannot be corrected by Seller’s reasonable efforts, the parties will negotiate an equitable
adjustment in price. Labor to perform warranty service will be provided at no charge during the
warranty period only for the Equipment covered under Paragraph B.3, B.4 and B.5. To be eligible for
no-charge labor, service must be performed at Seller’s factory, by an Authorized Service Center
(ASC) or other Servicer approved for these purposes either at its place of business during normal
business hours, for mobile or personal equipment, or at the Buyer’s location, for fixed location
equipment. Service on fixed location equipment more than thirty (30) miles (48 km) from the Service
Center or other approved Servicer’s place of business will include a charge for transportation.
D. Seller’s obligations under Paragraph C shall not apply to any Equipment, or part thereof, which (i) has
been modified or otherwise altered other than pursuant to Seller’s written instructions or written
approval or, (ii) is normally consumed in operation or, (iii) has a normal life inherently shorter than the
warranty periods specified in Paragraph B, or (iv) is not properly stored, installed, used, maintained or
repaired, or, (v) has been subjected to any other kind of misuse or detrimental exposure, or has been
involved in an accident.
E. The preceding paragraphs set forth the exclusive remedies for claims based upon defects in or
nonconformity of the Equipment, whether the claim is in contract, warranty, tort (including
negligence), strict liability or otherwise, and however instituted. Upon the expiration of the warranty
period, all such liability shall terminate. The foregoing warranties are exclusive and in lieu of all other
warranties, whether oral, written, expressed, implied or statutory. NO IMPLIED OR STATUTORY
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE SHALL
APPLY. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE SELLER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES.
This warranty applies only within the United States.
