2.1.2 5351R 

The 5351R must be installed as close to the antenna as possible to keep antenna cable 
line loss to a minimum. The 5351R is capable of driving its output signal long distances, up 
to 5000 feet (consult factory). For outdoor or remote installations, the 5351R must be 
housed within a weather-proof enclosure; otherwise it must be kept indoors.

2.2 Connections

All wiring connections are located on the back panel.

!

Connect the antenna cable into the N-type female connector.

!

Attach the ground screw to earth ground using a #6 stranded copper wire. The ground 
lug is provided on the ground screw.

!

Attach the receiver/decoder cable using the "lug" type connectors into the Sig Out 
(signal out) section of the terminal block. Attach the cable shield to the ground screw 
(see wiring diagram).

!

Attach the battery power cable into the terminal block. Connect battery power cable to 
the battery terminals.

CAUTION: Failure to observe battery polarity will cause extensive damage.

!

Connect the AC charger to the 5-pin connector. Plug the AC charger into a standard 
AC electrical outlet.

2.3 Mounting

The 5351R is designed for "desktop" installation. Avoid placing the console in areas where 
there is a possibility of it getting wet. For use in remote locations, place the console into a 
weather-proof enclosure.

3.0 THEORY OF OPERATION

The  5351R receives data transmissions from the remote sites. The receiver circuitry 
demodulates the Frequency Modulated (FM) radio signals into audible tones for input into 
the 5351D.

3.1 Power Light

The power light is lighted whenever power is applied to the 5351R.
