Safety Warnings Introduction This chapter contains important information on the safe installation of the radio. You must read this information before starting the installation! You must read and observe the safety information on radio operation provided in the product safety and compliance information and the user’s guide! Warning!! RF exposure hazard To comply with FCC RF exposure limits: ■ VHF radios must be installed using an antenna mounted centrally on the vehicle roof, with a gain of 2.15dBi or 5.15dBi. ■ UHF radios must be installed using an antenna mounted either centrally on the roof with a gain of 2.15dBi or 5.65dBi, or centrally mounted on the trunk with a gain of 5.65dBi. This antenna must not be mounted at a location such that any person or persons can come closer than 35 inches (0.9m) to the antenna. Warning!! Safe radio mounting ■ Mount the radio securely so that it will not break loose in the event of a collision. An unsecured radio is dangerous to the vehicle occupants. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with the vehicle operator controls. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with the vehicle operator’s view. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with air bag deployment. Warning!! Interference with vehicular electronics Some vehicular electronic devices may be prone to malfunction, due to the lack of protection from RF energy present when your radio is transmitting. Examples of vehicular electronic devices that may be affected by RF energy are: ■ electronic fuel injection systems ■ electronic anti-skid braking systems ■ electronic cruise control systems. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the vehicle manufacturer or dealer in order to determine whether these electronic circuits will perform normally when the radio is transmitting. TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 Warning!! Vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas Radio installation in vehicles powered by LP (liquefied petroleum) gas with the LP gas container in a sealed-off space within the interior of the vehicle must conform to the National Fire Protection Association Standard NFPA 58. This standard states that the radio equipment installation must meet the following requirements. ■ The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated by a seal from the space containing the LP gas container and its fitting. ■ Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas container and its fittings. ■ The LP gas container space shall be vented to the outside of the vehicle. Caution Negative earth supply The radios are designed to operate only in a negative earth system. Caution Insufficient heat dissipation with non-standard radio installations An unobstructed flow of air is required over the underside and rear of the radio to ensure adequate cooling. The installation U-bracket described in this guide has been designed to ensure such an airflow. If a non-standard installation method is used, ensure that sufficient heat can be dissipated from the cooling fins at the rear of the radio as well as from the ridged underside of the radio. To achieve this, there must be a gap of more than 3/8 inch (10 mm) between the underside of the radio body and the mounting. 3/8 inch (10 mm) TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 10 TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 1 Preparing the Installation This chapter provides you with the information required to: Overview 1.1 ■ know the regulations regarding the installation of mobile radios ■ provide the tools required for installation ■ choose the appropriate installation configuration Regulations MPT 1362 Code of Practice Tait Electronics recommend that mobile radios be installed in accordance with the MPT 1362 Code of Practice. Vehicle Manufacturer’s Installation Instructions Follow your vehicle manufacturer’s instructions on the installation of mobile radios.

For special configurations for desktop and remote site installations, refer to the service manual. The installation configurations described below are based on the following hardware link configuration: ■ hardware link 1 (+13.8V battery power sense): fitted ■ hardware link 2 (ignition sense): fitted For more information on the hardware links, refer to the service manual. Direct Connection to the Power Source The radio’s power cable must always be connected directly to the power source (battery). Important Although it is possible to connect the radio in line with the vehicle ignition, this installation method is not recommended, as it may draw too much current, resulting in damage to the vehicle wiring and steering column or ignition switch. This may also cause the supply voltage of the radio to drop below the specified level. The radio can always be turned on and off using the on/off button, independent of the ignition signal. Installation without Ignition Signal Connect the power cable directly to the power source as described in “Connecting the Power Cable” on page 19. Note Installation with Ignition Signal If hardware link 1 is fitted and the ignition signal is not used, the standby current is 28mA. To reduce the standby current to 1mA: – remove hardware link 1, or – connect pin 4 (AUX_GPIO3) to pin 15 (GND) of the auxiliary connector, and program the AUX_GPIO3 line as described below. Connect the power cable directly to the power source as described in “Connecting the Power Cable” on page 19. Connect pin 4 (AUX_GPIO3) of the auxiliary connector to the ignition signal as described in “Connecting to the Auxiliary Connector” on page 21. Note 12 The AUX_GPI3 line must be programmed to ‘Power Sense (Ignition)’ and active to ‘High’. For more information, refer to the online help of the application software.

TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 2.2 Selecting the Mounting Position Requirements for Safe and Convenient Installation Make sure the mounting position complies with the requirements of the following safety warnings: Warning!! Safe radio mounting Gap between Radio Body and Mounting Surface ■ Mount the radio securely so that it will not break loose in the event of a collision. An unsecured radio is dangerous to the vehicle occupants. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with the vehicle operator controls. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with the vehicle operator’s view. ■ Mount the radio and the microphone where they will not interfere with air bag deployment. Note It may be required to mount the radio upside down in order to maintain a gap of more than 3/8 inch (10 mm) between the bottom surface of the radio body and the mounting surface. Inspect the vehicle and determine the safest and most convenient position for mounting the radio. Make sure that there sufficient clearance behind the radio for the heatsink and cables. IP54 Protection Class Considerations Important The radio is specified to fulfil the requirements of the IP54 protection class. However, the following must be considered: The radio must not be mounted in areas, where an accumulation of water or other liquids can result in the temporary submersion of the radio (e.g. when using a high-pressure cleaning device). The IP54 protection class does not apply when: TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 ■ the control head is removed from the radio body ■ the bungs are removed from the auxiliary connector or the aperture for the external options connector (fitting an auxiliary connector or external options connector will not restore the IP54 protection class) ■ the microphone grommet is not installed 15 2.3 Mounting the Radio Introduction The U-bracket included in the installation kit can be used to install the radio on the dashboard or on any sufficiently flat surface (e.g. cabin floor or trunk). The U-bracket can be mounted using the self-drilling screws and washers provided, or nuts and bolts (not included). Caution Installation Although an industrial-strength recloseable fastening system can be used to support the installation, Tait does not recommend this as a mounting option for safety reasons. Important 1. If the U-bracket is being mounted over a curved surface, the tabs at the bottom of the U-bracket can be bent slightly to match the surface shape. 2. Hold the U-bracket in the position chosen for the radio and use the mounting holes as a template to mark the mounting locations. The U-bracket must be installed using at least four screws. Tip The screws provided are self-drilling. For precise positioning, pilot holes of ∅1/8 inch (3 mm) may be predrilled. Reduce the hole size in metal that is less than 1/32 inch (1 mm) thick. Important 16 When mounting the radio on a surface, check whether the mounting screws will screw into material providing sufficient strength. Reinforce the mounting surface, if required. Ensure that drilling at the selected points will not damage existing wiring. 3. Drill any holes required for cables and fit the holes with suitable grommets or bushings. 4. Fasten the U-bracket to the mounting points using the self-drilling screws provided. Ensure that tightening the screws does not distort the U-bracket. 5. Mount the radio to the U-bracket using the four thumb screws provided. The radio can be tilted for the best viewing angle. TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 2.4 Installing the Microphone Introduction This section describes the radio’s microphone connector and the information required to connect the microphone and install the microphone clip. Connecting the Microphone 1. Plug the microphone into the microphone socket. Important The microphone grommet must be installed whenever the microphone is plugged into the microphone socket: ■ to prevent damage to the microphone socket when there is movement of the microphone cord, and ■ to ensure that the control head is sealed against water, dust and other environmental hazards. 2. Slide the grommet along the microphone cord and push two adjacent corners of the grommet into the microphone socket cavity. 3. Squeeze the grommet and push the remaining corners into position. 4. Check that the grommet is seated correctly in the cavity. Figure 2.3 Inserting the microphone grommet microphone grommet control head Installing the Microphone Clip Warning!! Safe radio mounting ■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with the vehicle operator controls. ■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with the vehicle operator’s view. ■ Mount the microphone where it will not interfere with air bag deployment. Important Only install the microphone clip provided. If a non-standard microphone clip is used, the correct operation of the microphone hookswitch cannot be guaranteed. Install the microphone clip in the most convenient location using the screws provided. The microphone must be within reach of the user but in such a position, that the PTT (press-to-talk) key cannot be inadvertently activated or jammed. TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 17 2.5 Installing the Antenna Introduction This section provides the information required for the installation of an external antenna within the RF exposure limits. For further information refer to the antenna manufacturer’s instructions. Warning!! RF exposure hazard To comply with FCC RF exposure limits: ■ VHF radios must be installed using an antenna mounted centrally on the vehicle roof, with a gain of 2.15dBi or 5.15dBi. ■ UHF radios must be installed using an antenna mounted either centrally on the roof with a gain of 2.15dBi or 5.65dBi, or centrally mounted on the trunk with a gain of 5.65dBi. This antenna must not be mounted at a location such that any person or persons can come closer than 35 inches (0.9m) to the antenna. Installing the Antenna Install the external antenna according to the antenna manufacturer’s instructions. Good quality 50 Ω coaxial cable must be used, such as RG58 or UR76. Connecting the Antenna Cable Important The cable must be routed in a manner that minimizes coupling into the electronic control systems of the vehicle. Important The cable must be routed in a manner that minimizes coupling of electric vehicle systems such as alternators into the radio. Important Protect the antenna cable from engine heat, sharp edges and from being pinched or crushed. 18 1. Run the free end of the coaxial cable to the radio’s mounting position and cut it to length, allowing approximately 8 inches (20 cm) excess at the radio end. 2. Terminate the free end of the cable with the mini-UHF plug supplied. TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 2.6 Connecting the Power Cable Introduction This section provides the information required for the connection of power cable to the power source. Power Connector The power connector is the interface to the vehicle battery and an optional external remote speaker. Connection of a remote speaker is discussed in the next section. Table 2.1 Power connector (radio) - pins and signals Pinout Pin rear view Important Selecting the Power Source Signal name Description Signal type AGND Earth return for radio body power source. Ground SPK– External speaker output. Balanced load configuration. Analog SPK+ External speaker output. Balanced load configuration. Analog 13V8_BATT DC power input for radio body Power and control head. This radio is designed to operate from a nominal 12 V negative ground supply and may draw up to 15 A of current. The radio will tolerate a supply voltage range of 10.8 V to 16.0 V at the radio. In passenger vehicles, the radio is always connected directly to the battery using the power cable provided. In trucks, where direct connection to the battery is often not possible, the radio can be connected to a suitable terminal inside the fuse box, that is connected directly to the battery. 24 V-to-12 V Converter In vehicles with a supply voltage larger than 16.0 V, such as many trucks, it is essential to provide a suitably rated 24V-to-12V converter. This will isolate the radio from excessive battery voltage and provide the correct DC operating conditions. Note that most 24V-to-12V converters already fitted are not rated sufficiently. Standby Current When connecting the radio to the battery without using the ignition signal as described on page 23, the standby current is approximately 28 mA. When using the ignition signal to turn off the radio, the standby current is reduced to <1 mA. Tip TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 To reduce the standby current from 20 mA to approximately 1 mA without using the ignition signal, connect pin 4 of the auxiliary connector to ground. 19 Connecting the Power Cable Important Although it is possible to connect the radio in line with the vehicle ignition, this installation method is not recommended, as it may draw too much current resulting in damage to the vehicle wiring and steering column or ignition switch. This may also cause the supply voltage of the radio to drop below the specified level. Important Disconnecting the vehicle’s battery may cause problems with some electronic equipment, such as vehicle alarms, engine management systems, and in-car entertainment systems. Check that the vehicle owner has the necessary information to make all electronic equipment function correctly after battery reconnection. Important If the battery is not disconnected, exercise extreme caution throughout the installation and install the fuses only when the installation is ready to be checked (refer to “Checking the Installation” on page 24). 1. Disconnect the vehicle’s battery unless specifically prohibited from doing so by the customer, vehicle manufacturer, agent, or supplier due to the type of electrical equipment fitted to the vehicle. Important The cable must be routed in a manner that minimizes coupling of electric vehicle systems such as alternators into the radio. Important Protect the power cable from engine heat, sharp edges and from being pinched or crushed. 2. Run the power cable between the radio’s mounting position and the power source and cut it to length, allowing approximately 8 inches (20 cm) excess at the radio end. 3. Plug the power cable into the power connector of the radio. 4. Cut the negative and the positive wires where the in-line fuse holders will be placed (as close to the power source as possible). Important 20 Do not install the fuses until the installation is ready to be checked. 5. Insert each end of the negative wire into one of the in-line fuse holders and crimp them to force the metal contacts onto the wires. 6. Connect the negative wire to the battery ground. 7. Repeat step 4 for the positive wire and connect it to the positive terminal of the power source.

Connect the speaker to pins 2 (SPK–) and 3 (SPK+) of the power connector described on page 19. For more information refer to the fitting instructions provided with the speaker, or to the accessories manual. 2.8 Connecting to the Auxiliary Connector Introduction Auxiliary Connector The auxiliary connector can be used to connect external devices and signals that are typically connected to a radio. These devices and signals include: ■ the ignition signal to power up and down the radio ■ an emergency switch to power up the radio (if required) and the enter emergency mode ■ external alert devices The radio’s auxiliary connector is a 15-way standard-density D-range socket. Note TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004 The space for a mating plug is limited to 1 5/8 inches (41 mm) in width and 11/16 inches (18 mm) in height. It is recommended to test the plug to be used before manufacturing a cable. Tait uses IPN 240-00020-55 for the plug. 21 Table 2.2 Pinout Auxiliary connector (radio) - pins and signals Pin 1) 1! 1@ 1# 1$ 1% Signal name 12 AUX_GPI1 AUX_GPI2 AUX_GPI3 10 AUX_GPIO4 AUX_GPIO5 AUX_GPIO6 AUX_GPIO7 11 Signal type General purpose digital input.

Power 15 AGND Analog ground Ground rear view Shielding Description If the auxiliary cable is longer than 4 feet (1m) it is recommended to shield the cable and connector backshell. Figure 2.4 shows the recommended shielding arrangement. The earth braid wire (bare copper) and aluminium foil should only be earthed at the radio end of the cable.

This will turn the radio off when the ignition key is off to avoid flattening the battery, and will turn the radio on or return to its previous state (as programmed) when the ignition key is on. Note The AUX_GPI3 line must be programmed to ‘Power Sense (Ignition)’ and active to ‘High’. For more information, refer to the online help of the application software. Connect the ignition signal to pin 4 (AUX_GPI3) of the auxiliary connector. Emergency Switch The radio allows for connection of an emergency switch to any input line to enter the emergency mode. If connected to the AUX_GPI2 input line, the radio can also use ‘emergency power sense’ to power up the radio in order to enter the emergency mode. Note The selected input line must be programmed to ‘Enter Emergency Mode’ and active to ‘Low’. To use ‘emergency power sense’, hardware link LK3 must be fitted (factory default), and AUX_GPI2 must be used. For more information, refer to the service manual and the online help of the application software. Connect a normally closed switch between the pin of the input line (pin 5 for AUX_GPI2) and pin 15 (AGND) of the auxiliary connector. External Alert Device The radio allows for output to external alert devices using the digital GPIO lines of the auxiliary connector and the internal options connector. AUX_GPIO4 can be fitted with a power MOSFET (Q707) in order to directly connect external alert devices (e.g. flashing light, buzzer, horn relay) to the radio. Also, resistor R768 must be removed. Important Note While the MOSFET is rated at 12 A (with heat sink), the maximum allowable current of the connector and radio’s earthing system is 2 A. Therefore, a horn must not be connected directly to the radio. A horn relay must be used. The selected output line must be programmed to ‘External Alert 1 or 2’, active to ‘Low’, and signal sate to ‘Momentary’. Connect the external alert device to the pin of the output line (pin 10 for AUX_GPIO4) and pin 8 (13V8_SW) of the auxiliary connector (or a different positive battery connection).

Switch on the radio to confirm that it is operational, but do not transmit. 3. Connect an in-line power meter between the radio and the antenna. 4. Place the radio in transmit mode and measure the forward and reflected power levels. 5. Less than 4% of the forward power should be reflected. If this is not achieved, check the installation, including the antenna length. 6. Start reducing the length of the antenna in steps of 0.1 inches to 0.2 inches (2 to 5 mm); measure the power levels at each step. 7. Once the reflected power levels are within tolerance, make a call to another party on the radio. TM9100 (40W/50W) Installation Guide © Tait Electronics Ltd October 2004
