J 1 REGULATORY AND SAFETY INFORMATION 1.1 SAFETY SYMBOL CONVENTIONS The following conventions are used in this manual to alert the user to general safety precautions that must be observed during all phases of operation, installation, service, and repair of this product. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere violates safety standards of design, manufacture, and intended use of the product.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J both workers and the general public. These recommended RF exposure levels include substantial margins of protection. All two-way radios marketed in North America are designed, manufactured, and tested to ensure they meet government-established RF exposure levels. In addition, manufacturers also recommend specific operating instructions to users of two-way radios.

MM-012137-001, Rev. J 3 INTRODUCTION This manual contains installation procedures for the M5300 mobile radio, the CH-721 control heads, and the HHC-731 hand-held controller. Procedures cover the mounting and cabling of the equipment, as well as the basic in-vehicle test procedures. In addition, product safety-related information is included. 3.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The M5300 mobile radio is a high-performance digital mobile radio.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J In a remote-mount M5300 mobile radio installation, the HHC-731 hand-held controller can be used in place of the CH-721 control head. This easy-to-use hand-held mobile radio controller is primarily designed for use in harsh environments such as maritime (i.e., boating) applications and All-Terrain Vehicle (ATV) applications. The HHC-731 hand-held controller has easy-to-use buttons, a tough liquidcrystal display (LCD), and a built-in microphone.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J The M5300 mobile radio, the CH-721 control head and the HHC-731 hand-held controller exceed tough environmental specifications included within military standard MIL-STD-810F, the radio industry standard TIA/EIA-603, and the radio standard established by the U.S. Forest Service. An M5300 radio operating on an OpenSky radio network uses Time-Division Multiple-Access (TDMA) digital modulation technology on the radio frequency link.

When using this configuration, the on/off/volume control must be left in the on position for automatic power-up/down to function properly. NOTE In a front-mount M5300 radio installation, to fuse the white wire of the radio’s DC Power Cable, a yellow waterproof (HFB type) fuse holder and a 3-amp AGC fuse are included with the cable.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 3. Strip the area of any paint or dirt to expose a bare metal surface, approximately ¾-inch square. 4. Drill a hole in the approximate center of the bare metal surface, and deburr it.⅜ A -inch noninsulated ring terminal is supplied with the cable to make this ground connection. Therefore, hole diameter should be appropriate for the utilized grounding screw/bolt size and type used to connect the ring terminal to the bare metal surface. This hardware is not supplied. 5.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 4. Cut the red wire to the required length for connection to the battery’s positive (+) battery terminal (or the main DC bus bar or stud). 5. Prepare to splice the fuse holder into the red wire by cutting it again, at approximately three (3) to six (6) inches from the end. 6. Strip all three (3) wire ends back approximately⅜ -inch, place a fuse holder shell on each wire, and securely crimp a fuse holder terminal to each wire end.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 4. Cut excess length from the white wire and splice the fuse holder into it, near the location of the connection point. 5. Using an appropriate electrical terminal, connect the white wire to the switched power connection point. An open-barrel spade terminal is included with the cable for this purpose, but another type of terminal (not supplied) may be used as required. 6.

Install and tighten the mounting screws/hardware. 6. Verify the bracket is firmly secured to the mounting surface. A secure mount prevents unreasonable vibration, which could damage the radio and/or cause its cable connections to loosen.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 8.1.2 Inserting the Radio into the Mounting Bracket The radio should now be inserted into the bracket according to this procedure: 1. Lay the radio down into the mounting bracket with the front of the radio at the front of the mounting bracket. 2. Attach the radio into the mounting bracket using the six (6) M5 x 10 mm stainless-steel hex-head screws, and flatwashers and lockwashers included with the Mounting Bracket Kit (item 1 in Table 4-6).

Figure 8-11 illustrates this for a multi-head control head installation where, for example, one control head is located at the main operator location and another is located near the rear of the vehicle. Because CAN devices do not have internal terminators, the CAN link must be terminated at both ends via external CAN terminators, as depicted in the following figures.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J are located near the center of the radio’s rear panel. Figure 8-7 on page 71 shows the two CAN port connectors on the control head’s rear panel. 8.3.3.2 Make CAN Link Terminations and Cable Connection Follow this procedure for an installation which has only one control head. For a multi-control head installation, refer to Figure 8-11 as necessary. 1.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 5. At the back of the control head, tie and stow the cable as necessary. 6. For the positive 12-volt DC main power source connection, route the cable’s red wire to the location of an unswitched 12-volt DC power source, typically near the vehicle’s battery. Remove interior panels, door kick panels, etc. Protect the wire from possible chafing as necessary. This is the control head’s main DC power source. 7.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 2. Route the white wire of the control head’s DC Power Cable from the back of the head to the area near this connection point. Protect the wire from possible chafing as necessary. 3. Obtain one of the yellow waterproof (HFB-type) fuse holders included with the control head’s DC Power Cable. 4. Cut excess length from the white wire and splice the fuse holder into it, near the location of the connection point. 5.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 8.3.4.2.3 Control Head and Radio Are “Hot Wired” In the “hot-wired” configuration, the control head and radio are turned on and off only by the control head’s on/off/volume control located on the front panel of the control head. In this configuration, the control head’s white wire must be connected to unswitched and fused 12-volt vehicle power. Follow the procedure presented in Section 8.3.4.2.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 7. Pull enough of the switched ignition source wire out of the vehicle’s wiring harness so one of the T-tap terminals may be attached to it. 8. Two T-tap terminals are included in the kit. Based on the gauge of wire, select the proper terminal size: Red is for use with a 22 to 18-AWG wire, and blue is for use with an 18 to 14-AWG wire. 9.

MM-012137-001, Rev. J Do not ground the black wire by attaching it via the same hardware that secures the cable’s mounting bracket. CAUTION CAUTION Before drilling holes and/or installing mounting screws, verify these operations will not damage or interfere with any existing vehicle component (the fuel tank, a fuel line, the transmission housing, existing vehicle wiring, etc.). Always check to see how far the mounting screws will extend below the mounting surface prior to installation.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J NOTE The white ignition sense wire must be connected to a fused power source that switches from approximately zero volts to approximately +13.6 volts when the vehicle’s ignition switch/key is turned from the OFF position to the ACCESSORY and RUN positions. Use of a switched power source that is subject to voltage changes as a result of other actions, such as opening a vehicle door, may result in undesirable radio power cycles. 1.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 9. If not already, mount the switch to the vehicle’s dash panel, or other customer-selected location. 10. Obtain the 3-amp AGC-type fuse included with the cable, and install it into the fuse holder. 11. Tie and stow these wires as necessary so they remain out of the way of casual contact and wire chafe is avoided. 12. Label this power switch accordingly. For example: “RADIO ON/OFF.” 8.4.3.2.
MM-012137-001, Rev. J 9 SPEAKER INSTALLATION 9.1 FRONT-MOUNT RADIO INSTALLATION In a front-mount radio installation, total speaker cable length (of both cables) is approximately 10 feet (308 centimeters). Therefore, to include service loops in these cables, the speaker must be mounted within approximately 9.5 feet (290 centimeters) of the M5300 mobile radio. 1.
