a vehicles operation. By default, the SatDOCK 9555 will stay
on for 20 minutes after this input is switched off and if a call is in
progress while this occurs, the SatDOCK 9555 will stay on for 20
minutes after the call is terminated.
Please follow the steps below to connect the DC power cable to
the vehicle battery power and the SatDOCK 9555.

cable to the 4-way power connector on the rear cable loom
