Chapter 2 Standard Configurations2.1 Planning the InstallationThe APX mobile radio operates only in negative ground electrical systems with a valid operating range of 13.6 V +/- 20%. Before starting the radio installation, make sure that the ground polarity of the vehicle is correct. Accidentally reversing the polarity could damage the radio and cause the cable fuses to blow.Planning is the key to fast, easy radio installation. Before starting the installation, inspect the vehicle and determine how and where you intend to mount the antenna, radio, and accessories. Plan wire and cable runs to provide maximum protection from pinching, crushing, and overheating.Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer user manual for warnings or recommendations.The installation of this device should be completed by an authorized servicer or installer. Failure to properly install the device may result in damage to the device, or improper operation.!C a u t i o nDraft

MN003109A01_aaStandard Configurations Planning the Installation 2-5NOTE: In dash mount configuration, it is mandatory that a rear accessory cable be attached at the back of a mid power transceiver, in order to ground the Emergency pin to GND. Or, an emergency footswitch or pushbutton switch must be attached at the back of a mid power.  If the emergency pin is not grounded, upon the attachment of the A+ cable at the DC connector, the radio detects a HIGH for the emergency pin state, and assume that emergency has been activated.

MN003109A01_aaStandard Configurations Planning the Installation 2-152.1.3 Radio Operation Wiring for Dash and Remote ConfigurationsDetermine from Table 2-1 or Table 2-2 the radio functionality you want to achieve, which is controlled by the vehicle ignition switch state, the physical wiring of the radio ignition sense (ACC) wire, and by the programmed CPS setting. For additional radio functionality as determined by the programming of the ignition switch in CPS, refer to the HELP menu in your CPS that is Ignition as: Required, Blank, Soft Power Off, TX Inhibit, PTT TX Inhibit, Ignition Only Power Up).Choose a clean ignition point which is not shared in the immediate vicinity by other high current accessories/devices to reduce the transients on the ignition line. Examples of  high-current accessories/devices are: Air Horn, relays, lightbars, and others. It is recommended to wire to the vehicle ACC line, not the START or the solenoid side of the ignition circuit. Refer to chapter 6 for best installation practices. The Ignition sense (ACC) cable uses either a 3-amp fuse (6580283E01) or 4-amp fuse (6580283E02).2.1.3.1  Dash Mount: Power, Ignition, and Emergency Cable Installation - Mid PowerThe standard dash mount rear ignition sense cable HLN6863 contains a “thin red” ignition wire, a jumper wire that shorts emergency to ground, and two gray wires attached to an external speaker plug. The thin RED wire is the ignition sensed wire. Refer to Table 2-1 or Table 2- 2  for its correct wiring configurations.NOTE: This cable MUST be attached in order for the radio to operate in Dash mount, regardless of how emergency is programmed in CPS or wired inside the vehicle. Either the emergency jumper wire or an emergency accessory (footswitch or button) must be wired to the rear of the transceiver in Dash mount. Otherwise, upon attachment of the radio power cable to the vehicle battery, the radio incorrectly determines that emergency operation has been activated, such as when an emergency footswitch is de-pressed and the emergency pin is ungrounded.Draft
MN003109A01_aa2-16 Standard Configurations Planning the Installation2.1.3.2  Remote Mount: Power, Ignition, and Emergency Cable InstallationThe single control head O2, O5, O7 or O9 remote mount configurations receive power from the J200 connector red and black wires. The yellow wire at J200 is one ignition sense wire. The J2 connector can also be used for ignition sense. If the HLN6863 is attached at J100 of the O2, O5, O7 or O9 control head, the “thin red” wire do NOT function as an ignition sense wire, since the J100 connector has no ignition sense electrical connection.NOTE: It is incorrect for installation to attach ignition sense at more than one wire or connector.  Refer to Table 2-1 or Table 2-2 for its correct wiring configurations.The O3 control head receives its power down the CAN cable, and detects the ignition state by the ignition sense pin at J2. The J2 connector can also be used for ignition sense. In Multi-Control Head installations, the yellow ignition wire must be connected to the head assigned ID # 1. Section 2.2.2.4: “Setting the Initial Control Head ID”  for further information.The design of the control head is different compared to the transceiver, therefore it is also NOT necessary to attach HLN6863 at J100 to prevent accidental emergency operation. The control head can have an emergency accessory attached at connector J100 instead of at the transceiver connector J2. Wherever the emergency accessory is placed, it is recommended to only attach at one location rather than multiple emergency accessories attached at different points of the radio. Draft

MN003109A01_aa2-20 Standard Configurations Planning the Installation2.1.5 Motorola Solutions Branded SB9600 Siren/PA Configuration/ProgrammingThe Siren/PA is shipped pre-wired for 100 W operation. It can be rewired for 65 W, 75 W, or 130 W power levels.To change to another power level, perform the following:1. Open the Siren/PA connector cover to gain access to the two-connector speaker leads. Do not change the speaker common lead (pin 20). The other lead is connected to pin 35 (for 100 W operation).2. Using an appropriate pin removal tool, extract pin 35 and move it to one of the following pin locations:- pin location 36 for 75 W operation- pin location 28 for 65 W or 130 W operation3. For 65 W or 75 W operation, no further changes are required. Reassemble the connector. 4. For 130 W operation, you must parallel two 11 ȍ speakers, each rated at 65 W minimum. Proper phasing of the two speakers is important--when connecting two speakers in parallel, wire similar speaker terminals together to ensure maximum loudness and prevent "deadspots." For example, if the terminals are marked "1" and "2", connect the terminals marked "1" together and connect those wires to one speaker lead. Connect the terminals marked "2" together and connect those wires to the other speaker lead. 5. When the Siren/PA is configured for dual speaker, 130 W operation, it is necessary to remove a resistor and move two jumpers to set the correct power level. Remove the Siren/PA cover, and locate resistor R219 (0 ȍ). This resistor should be removed for 130 W operation. Locate jumpers JU100 and JU101. These jumpers should be installed for 130 W operation.6. Close and reconnect the Siren/PA connector cover.NOTE: Jumpers JU100 and JU101 do not affect the Siren output level. JU100 and JU101 compensate for the lower speaker load and the two speakers in parallel, by decreasing the gain U102-1. JU100 affects the radio PA level and JU101 affects the PA audio level.Pin locations of various power level configurations are listed in Table 2-5Before continuing, remember that under a high-line supply condition (16.6 V), up to 30 % more power goes to the speaker(s) after reconfiguring for 130 W operation. Do this only when your PA speakers are capable of handling the extra power.Table 2-5.

Select a location that permits routing the RF antenna cable as directly as possible.NOTE: For optimum radio performance, orient the mounting trunnion as shown in Figure 2-23. For new or existing installations of all use only the APX mobile trunnion, kit number HLN7002 (mid power) and HLN7003 (high power).Figure 2-23.  APX8500 Mid Power Trunnion Orientation DO NOT mount the radio on a plastic mounting surface without first reinforcing the mounting surface; the weight of the radio may crack or break the mounting surface.DO NOT mount the radio on any surface where the radio could be partially submersed in water. This is especially important if the cab area of the vehicle is cleaned by spraying with water. If the radio sits in water for a length of time, moisture may seep inside the radio and damage the electronic components.DO NOT allow water to stand in recessed areas of vertically mounted radios. Remove any moisture immediately to prevent it from seeping down into the radio.Care must be taken to shield the control head (front and back) from direct exposure to pressurized water. The pressurized water from a hose, in most cases, is more severe than the stated test and conditions in typical environments.!C a u t i o nRADIO APPLIES TO RADIOS IN DASH AND REMOTE INSTALLATIONSDraft

In CPS, navigate to Radio Wide/Advanced/Record Audio and select TX + RX Audio.2.3.2 Battery Selector SwitchIn vehicles which have installed a Battery Selector Switch, the ignition sense (yellow) wire should be the only wire connected to the battery selector switch (see Figure 2-45). Radio transceiver and control head power wires (red) must be connected directly to the vehicle battery. If the control head power wire and the control head ignition sense wire are both connected to a battery selector switch, but the radio transceiver power lead is not, improper power-cycling and off-state battery drainage may occur. If the desired state of the radio is a total battery drain elimination, then all power and ignition sense wires must be routed through the battery selector switch, so that the control head and radio transceiver both see the loss of battery power at the same time.Figure 2-45.

Chapter 3 Universal Relay Controller InstallationThe Universal Relay Controller (URC) is an extension of and an orderable accessory for O7 or O9 control head. URC is used to control high power switching peripherals, e.g. lightbar. URC works on all lightbars which can be controlled by power application. URC is connected to the transceiver's MMP port. The URC design consists of a microcontroller and uses 10 relays to control the switching device. A separate ground for isolation exists between the relay and MCU sections, which is provided by the use of iCoupler from Analog Devices. Each relay is connected to an output with 15 A fuse. The maximum load allowed on each output is 12 A. Two cables, each with the maximum of 60 A, can be used to connect to the input connector at the bus bar. Each cable is connected with a 60 A circuit breaker. One-wire EEPROM is employed to enable MMP to recognize the URC accessory ID. CPS can be used to program the relay patterns.When installing URC, make sure to plan the installation carefully and leave additional room in the front and rear of the box for cabling and accessory connections; and also to the sides of the radio so that you may access and install the trunnion screws.The recommended mounting location for URC is in the car trunk, either next to the transceiver or within the area not further than 4.5 m away from the transceiver. Ensure that sufficient cooling is provided. Do not cover URC with baggage, blankets, and others3.1 Universal Relay Controller MountingThe mounting location must be accessible and visible. Select a location that permits routing the cable as directly as possible.NOTE: For optimum URC performance, orient the mounting trunnion as shown in Figure 3-1.Figure 3-1.  Universal Relay Controller OrientationAn adjustable trunnion, which allows a number of mounting positions, is supplied for mounting the URC. The installation must not interfere with the operation of the vehicle or its accessories.Do not backfeed power into URC.!C a u t i o nDraft

Remove the cap nut of power cable gland assembly, and insert the power cable through the cap nut and neoprene seal in the cable gland body. Use power cable with either AWG 6 or AWG 8 only (recommended OD range of cable is 5.5 mm to 9 mm) that is able to withstand 80 A and 50 A respectively, to ensure water sealing of the controller. User can decide to install one or two power cables based on the requirements. The power cables (A+) are not supplied.2. The loose end of the power cable with cable strip length 7.94 mm (5/16”) is then placed on the power lug and secured down by a set screw. The cap nut is then reassembled with tightening torque 18 lb-in.3. The other end of the power cable should be connected to circuit breaker (Motorola Solutions part number 40012006001) end which indicates "AUX" and then, to power supply on the other end which indicates "BAT", instead of connecting to power supply directly.4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to install the second power cable, if required.5. If only one power cable is installed, it is recommended to cover the other side of the power cable gland with power cable gland seal with tightening torque 18 lb-in.3.2.2 Ground Cable1. Remove the cap nut of ground cable gland assembly, insert the ground cable through the cap nut and then reassemble the cap nut. Use ground cable with AWG 14 only (recommended OD range of cable is 2 mm to 4 mm) that is able to withstand 5 A. The ground cables (A+) are not supplied.NOTE: The ground is used to switch the relays, and not act as a ground to the actual device being controlled.2. The loose end of the ground cable with cable strip length 7.94 mm (5/16”) is then connected to a two-pin terminal block. Both pins on the terminal block are inter-connected and either pin can be used. The cap nut is then reassembled with tightening torque 7 lb-in.Figure 3-3.

Assemble the wires into the lightbar gasket retainer and lightbar gasket. The URC can support lightbars through control wires with outer diameter ranging from  1.52 mm to 3.77 mm (0.06” to 0.148”), with wire gages ranging from AWG 12 – 20.2. Each individual loose wire (prior to stripping off the wire jacket) needs to be inserted one at a time through the chassis. Ensure the lightbar wire is straight before inserting the wire into the chassis. Each wire is sealed individually by the radial gasket seal. When a thick wire that is AWG 14 wire or wire OD > 2.90 mm is inserted through the chassis, there is potential torn at the rubber gasket. Remove the rubber gasket residual and continue to the next step.3. Thin wires 2.5 mm and below should be dressed into the retention feature using a black stick (see Figure 3-5); thick wires above 2.5 mm should be routed above the retention feature. Strip off the wire until 7.94 mm (5/16”) after the wire is inserted into the URC, and install the wire into respective lightbar terminal block.4.

The lightbar gasket should be replaced at each reassembly of the wire.NOTE: Use of other cable gages except as recommended in this manual may result in water intrusion. Any reassembly of wire needs a new lightbar gasket replaced. If the current loading for one wire is higher than 12 A, the wires should be splitted before being assembled to the URC system. Wires kit (PMKN4109_) is provided to ease installation of the URC. Incorrect use of the wires kit, e.g. improper connection at external loose end wires, may impact the robustness of the URC.  Remove the wires and gasket residual inside the URC after the wire installation, before closing the top housing of the URC.3.2.4 O7/O9 to URC CableThe O7/O9 to URC cable (Motorola Solutions part number 3064153H02) can be assembled either before or after reassembling the top housing. Assemble the RJ45 port of the cable into the RJ45 connector on the URC and turn the locking collar instead of cable, 90 degrees to the right to ensure it is locked properly. After that, test whether the cable is locked properly or not by trying to pull out the cable.Figure 3-7.  O7/O9 to URC Cable InstallationBlack StickDraft

Chapter 4 Options and Accessories Installation4.1 Dash-Mount Accessory Installation - Mid PowerFor dash-mounted configurations, the accessories must be installed through the accessory connector assembly that is located on the rear of the radio, adjacent to the power connector. Motorola Solutions-approved accessories are supplied with male terminals crimped to a 20-gauge wire specifically designed to fit the plug of the accessory connector assembly. Insert the male terminal into the accessory connector assembly in the appropriate location and connect the accessory connector assembly in the rear accessory port. Do not use other generic terminals in the plug. Generic terminals can cause electrical intermittencies and may cause damage to the plug.4.1.1 Dash-Mount Emergency Pushbutton or Footswitch Installation Mount the footswitch using the hardware that comes with the kit. Open the accessory cable connector housing; remove the jumper wire. Connect the emergency switch wires to pins 14 and 15 (see Figure 4-1). Close the connector housing; route the finished cable from the switch location to the control head location.NOTE: The emergency footswitch should be attached with A+ unattached.  A+ should be attached after successfully securing the screws in the connector.Figure 4-1.  Emergency Switch Wiring DiagramThe radio is sold with correct accessory cables and jumpers in order to have emergency  de-activated by default, regardless of the setting in CPS. However, if cables are not used, or if jumpers are removed without replacing with an emergency accessory button/switch at one of the accessory ports, the radio power-up upon the application of A+. The display may not show an indication that the radio is on, and this can result in an incorrect operation of the radio as well as excessive current drain of the vehicle battery when the engine is off.ACCESSORIESCONNECTORJ2 IN DASH MOUNTJ100 IN REMOTE MOUNTPIN 14PIN 15NOTE 1SPST NORMALLY CLOSEDEMERGENCY SWITCHNOTE 1:   REMOVE BLACK JUMPER WIRE INSIDE                 ACCESSORY CONNECTOR HOUSING.
