10 INSTALLATION
10.1 RUNNING
CABLES
To assure the feasibility of the planned cable routings, it is suggested that the
cables be run before mounting the radio. The M7100
IP
Series mobile radio
may be installed as a Front Mount or a Remote Mount. The type of mount, the
application and the options to be installed should be considered when
planning the cable runs. Figure 10-1 and Figure 10-2 provide Interconnection
Diagrams for typical installations and should be referenced throughout the
installation.
Be sure to leave some slack in each cable going to the radio so that the radio
may be pulled out for servicing with the power applied and antenna attached.
Coil any surplus cables and secure them out of the way. Try to route the
cables away from locations where they will be exposed to heat (exhaust pipes,
mufflers, tailpipes, etc.), battery acid, sharp edges or mechanical damage or
where they will be a nuisance or hazard to automobile mechanics, the driver
or passengers. Keep wiring away from electronic computer modules, other
electronic modules and ignition circuits to help prevent interference to these
components and radio equipment.
In addition, try to utilize existing holes in the firewall, trunk wall and the
channels above or beneath doors. Channels through door and window
columns that are convenient for running cables may also be used, unless rigid
or flexible conduit is to be installed for cable runs.
CAUTION
When attaching cables to the mobile, control head, or
bracket, do not exceed the following torque specifications
when tightening screws: 6 in-lb or 0.68 N-m or 7 kgf-cm.
