2.2.2 Remote Mount with Trunnion
2.2.2.1 Transceiver
For a remote mount installation, the transceiver may be mounted anywhere in the vehicle, provided
that the installation location is safe, follows the cautions mentioned at the beginning of this section,
and is accessible for servicing/maintenance as well as cabling. A typical mounting location
recommended by Motorola is in the vehicle’s trunk. The trunnion provided may still be used to mount
the transceiver, and the mounting process is the same as for the dash mount installation (
Section
2.2.1 on page 2-9). However, for 100W radios you must follow the procedure detailed below in
Section 2.2.2.1.1. See Figure 2-8 or Figure 2-9 for a remote W4, W5, W7, and W9 installation, and
Figure 2-11 or Figure 2-12 for a remote W3 installation.
2.2.2.1.1 100W Radios Only
1. After selecting the mounting location, use the trunnion mounting bracket as a template and
mark the positions of the holes on the mounting surface.
2. Center-punch the spots you have marked and realign the trunnion in position.
3. Secure the trunnion mounting bracket with the five self-drilling screws provided (see
Figure 2-
14 and Figure 2-15).
4. A. Quick release trunnion (HLN6909_): See
Figure 2-18. After the trunnion has been
mounted in the vehicle using the screws provided, insert the rear of the radio into the rear
catches of the trunnion and rotate the radio down into place. Then push the handle towards
the back of the radio to secure it. Using the keys provided, lock the handle in place and
remove the keys.
CAUTION Before installing any electrical equipment, check the vehicle manufacturer’s user
