Test lights can cause vehicle computer damage if the wrong wires are probed and can cause the air bag
systems to activate (deploy). Pay close attention to all caution labels in the vehicle. TouchTronics, Inc., will

responsibility whatsoever for this, or any other damage done to the vehicle, or any
personal injury due to improper installation. Refer to the limited warranty for details.
1) Choose the desired setup
2) Receiver Output Voltages
A) The receiver has four output voltages (channels) which will operate four separate circuits. The output
voltage is 12 volts direct current (vdc). The maximum drive current for each of the four output
channels is 5 amps (maximum). The four outputs can (drive) turn On small bulbs, relay coils or small
motors.
B) Check the power requirement for the bulb or motor before connecting to the receiver. The relay coil
should be rated for the current requirements. The maximum allowable coil current is 5 amps @
12vdc or 60 watts.
3) Select Receiver & Antenna Mounting Location
A) Typically the receiver is mounted under the dash, as high up as possible and away from any bundled
wires, other RF devices or switching power supplies. DO NOT mount behind any metal or tinted
windows. DO NOT install the receiver unit under the hood of the vehicle or in the door as the receiver
is NOT water proof. Water damage will NOT be covered under the warranty.
B) The antenna is the long, black, coaxial cable on the opposite end of the receiver housing from the wire
harness connector. The antenna should be mounted on the roof of the vehicle. The antenna should
NOT touch any metal or window tinting, nor be mounted near any other RF devices, any bundled wires
or other antennas. RF signals from base radios can overwhelm the RF signal from the transmitter to the
receiver and cause a decrease in range and/or a slow response time.
C) Select a chassis ground location that
DOES NOT HAVE ANY OTHER
grounds attached to it, as a
ground loop or signal back feed can occur.
D)
DO NOT
mount the receiver and antenna:
1) Within 6 feet of a motor
2) Near large bundles of wires
3) Near other antennas or RF devices
4) Switching power supplies
5) The antenna should not be touching any metal as this grounds the RF (radio frequency) signal
Installation: Planning
WARNING!
Use ONLY a volt meter to check voltage
during installation and testing.
*Using a test light WILL damage the outputs!
