2Installation of your RadioInstallation PlanningTo ensure trouble-free, efficient installation, inspect the vehicle and determine how andwhere the antenna, radio and accessories are to be mounted.It is possible to remote-mount the T2020II, T2040II and T2050II models as these havealphanumeric keypads, with the control head separate from the radio chassis. This enablesthe radio to be mounted in a discrete location, e.g. the rear luggage space, with the controlhead mounted in a convenient position for the vehicle’s occupants. See the M2000 servicemanual, available from your Tait dealer, for details of this modification.Occupant’s SafetyCheck that the chosen locations for the radio and accessories do not endanger the vehicleoccupants. Overhead mounting is not recommended, especially without an additionalsafety strap. Check that the radio may be conveniently operated when seat belts are worn.Caution: To prevent interference with vehicle electronic systems (such as ignition andanti-skid devices), the radio, its antenna and wiring should be mounted away from theseunits and their associated cables.Allow sufficient airflow around the radio to permit adequate cooling. Once you have found asuitable mounting position for the radio, hold it (fitted in the cradle) in the proposed mount-ing position and check there is clearance behind it for the heatsink, cables, etc. Check that theposition provides a large enough flat surface that the cradle will not be distorted.To Disassemble the Cradle1 Remove the radio from its cradle by sliding the plastic key supplied with the radio fullyinto the slot on the left front of the radio unit. The radio will now slide out forwardsfrom the cradle, as shown below:Figure 1: Cradle and KeyCradleRadio unitPlastic key
32 Disassemble the cradle by placing it on a firm surface and applying pressure down onone of the middle ribs of the plastic side moulding with a screwdriver. This will releasethe ribs along this edge from the slots in the metal cover with which they mate. Asimilar approach will release the other edge of the metal cover which can now be liftedclear (as shown below).Figure 2: Cradle DisassemblyMounting1 Hold the drilled half of the metal cradle cover in the position chosen for the radio anduse the four cradle cover mounting holes as a template to mark the locations fordrilling. Ensure that drilling at the selected points will not damage existing wiring.2 Indent the drilling positions with a centre punch and drill 4mm holes for self-tappingscrews, or 6mm holes for nuts and bolts. Reduce the hole size if using self-tappingscrews in metal which is less than 1mm thick.3 Drill any additional holes required for cables and fit them with suitable grommets orbushings.4 Secure the metal cradle cover to the mounting points with the M5 self-tapping screwssupplied, or with M5 nuts and bolts. Ensure that tightening the screws or bolts doesnot distort the cradle.To Reassemble the Cradle1 Reassemble the cradle by clipping one plastic side moulding to each side of themounted metal cover (as shown in Figure 3). Take care to locate the ribs on the plasticpart in the slots on the shoulders of the metal cover. They will only fit one way round.
42 Take the remaining metal cover and fit it over the exposed edges of the side mould-ings, again taking care to align the ribs with the slots. Clip it securely home.Figure 3: Cradle ReassemblyAntenna InstallationWarning: To comply with FCC RF exposure limits, the antenna must not be mounted at alocation such that any person or persons can come closer than the minimum safe distanceto the antenna.The antenna must be installed at or exceeding the minimum safe distance shown in Table 1.1 Use Table 1 to calculate the minimum safe distance for the antenna mounting posi-tion.2 If the antenna is of the ground-independent type, it should be mounted on the vehicleaccording to any guidelines supplied with the antenna.3 If the antenna is dependent on a ground-plane for its operation, it is recommendedthat it be installed in one of the positions shown in Figure 4.Table 1: Calculation for Minimum Safe Antenna Distance (cm)Antenna Gain (dBi)TransmitPower (W)134.56915 50 65 75 90 12525 65 80 95 115 160
5*1=most preferred *4=least preferredFigure 4: Recommended Antenna Positions4 Terminate one end of the coaxial cable at the antenna. Good quality 50 ohm coaxialcables such as RG58 or UR76 are suitable. Run the free end of the coaxial cable to theradio’s mounting position and cut it to length allowing 200mm to 300mm excess.5 Terminate the free end of the cable with the BNC crimp plug supplied, as shown inFigure 5:- Fit the crimp sleeve over the cable sheath.- Trim the outer sheath from the cable to 15mm (see Figure 5 below).- Trim the braid to 8.5mm.- Trim the dielectric to 11mm. (Take extreme care not to ‘nick’ the centreconductor with the trimming device.)- Fit the male pin onto the centre conductor with the shoulder pressed againstthe end of the dielectric.- Crimp the male pin onto the centre conductor.- Press the assembly firmly into the rear of the plug. (Ensure that no braid getstrapped between the dielectric and the inside of the plug.)- Slide the crimp sleeve over the braid and press against the shoulder of theplug.- Crimp the crimp sleeve onto the braid and plug body.24 133 222Figure 5: Antenna Connector AssemblyCrimp SleeveMale PinPlug
6WiringExternal SpeakerSome T2000II models are fitted with internal speakers. However it is possible to fit anexternal speaker if so desired. A twin wire must be terminated in the power connector. Todisable the internal speaker, cut the link on the power connector as shown overleaf.T2000II models with no internal speaker must have an external speaker fitted. The powerconnector comes pre-wired with the speaker cable.Mount the external speaker in a convenient location close to the operator. Run the free endof the speaker wire to the speaker, and connect it to the speaker plug.Figure 6: Power Connector WiringPower Cable1 Disconnect the vehicle’s battery unless specifically prohibited from doing so by thecustomer, vehicle manufacturer, agent or supplier. In this event, exercise extremecaution throughout the installation and fit the fuses only when the installation iscomplete.Caution: Always disconnect the radio’s power lead before connecting a second batteryor using power from another vehicle (e.g. when “jump-starting” the vehicle).2 Determine where the battery leads will be routed.3 Cut the negative and the positive wires where the in-line crimp fuse holders will beplaced (as close to the battery as practicable).4 Insert each end of the negative wire into one of the in-line crimp fuse holders and crimpthem to force the metal contacts onto the wires. Terminate the wire at the battery earth.5 Repeat Step 4 for the positive wire and terminate it at the positive terminal of the battery.Caution: Prevent the power wires chafing on any metal parts.IgnitionExternal Internal Speaker Link(cut to disable)GroundLive }External Speaker+13.8VGround{PowerSupply
7Note: T2000II radios are designed to operate from a nominal 12V negative earth supply,and require currents of up to 8A. (The radios will tolerate a supply voltage range of 10.8Vto 16.0V). In vehicles with a 24V electrical system (e.g. many trucks), it is essential toprovide a suitably rated 24/12V converter (e.g. Tait T2007) to isolate the radio from thebattery and protect it against excessive voltages.6 If the economizer is to be controlled by the ignition line, terminate a wire in the powerconnector and connect the ‘ignition’ wire to a +12V supply which is live only when thevehicle’s ignition is switched ‘On’.External Wire (Horn/Hush/Emergency)The T2000II can be configured to operate the vehicle’s horn, radio or a hidden switch:1 Terminate a suitable length of wiring in the “external” port of the power connector.2 Run the free end of the external wire from the power connector to the appropriatevehicle wiring.The option’s interface is usually configured to switch or be switched in the ground state.Confirm the exact operation in the documentation supplied with the interface unit.Remote Control Head OptionThe control head of some T2000II models may be supplied ready for mounting remotelyfrom the radio chassis. In this case the control head should be located away from directsunlight, and the cable connecting it to the radio should be routed away from the antennawith care taken to ensure that the cable will not be subject to damage.If it is necessary to run the cable through a bulkhead or similar obstruction, you mayunplug the cable from the control head as follows:1 Unscrew the rear of the control panel and lift off the rear cover, taking care not to losethe two nuts located on each end.2 Disconnect the red connector from the printed circuit board socket to free the cable.3 Route the cable as required, fitting grommets where necessary to prevent chafing ofthe cable insulation.4 Fit the red connector to the printed circuit board socket – the connector is shaped sothat it can be fitted in the correct orientation only.5 Refit the cable to the cable clamp on the rear cover and slip the two nuts into thereceptacles at each end of the rear cover.
86 Refit the rear cover and replace the cover screws, tightening them carefully. Do notovertighten the screws.The control head can now be installed as follows:1 Mount the bracket for the control panel on a flat surface using the self-tapping screwssupplied.2 Place the control head in the bracket, position it for a good viewing angle, and fit the2 screws to secure it in place.Microphone ClipThe microphone clip must be earthed (to the negative supply line) if hookswitch control ofmonitoring, scanning or call termination is to operate. Refer to the radio’s operating in-structions to confirm requirements.Ensure that the microphone clip is mounted in a position where the microphone PTT keycannot be inadvertently activated or jammed on.Installation Checks1 Plug the microphone into the socket on the lower left-hand corner of the radio’s frontpanel. Push the cable grommet into the rectangular aperture in the panel.2 Insert the fuses into the power lead.3 Switch on the radio and confirm that it is operational.4 Connect an in-line power meter between the radio and the antenna and measure theforward and reflected power levels. Less than 1W should be reflected for 25W forwardpower. If this is not achieved, check the installation – including antenna length.5 Make a call to another party on the radio (as described in the operating instructions).Tait Electronics has made every effort to ensure the accuracy of information in thismanual. However, Tait Electronics reserves the right to update the radio and / or thismanual without notice.
