Chapter 5 Finishing the Installation: Cable Connection
Perform the following if it has not been previously done:
1. For all models except W3, remove the control head from its mounting trunnion. Plug the
radio’s control cable into the proper location on the back of the control head (see
Figure 2-21
and Figure 2-22 in Chapter 2). The connectors “click” when snapped into place. W4, W5, and
W7 control head models can have the microphone plugged into either the lower left corner of
the control head front panel or in the middle section of the connector on the rear of the control
head. W9 control head models have only the rear connection on the control head available.
Connect the microphone cable S-hook (see Figure 2-17 in Chapter 2) into the hole in the
cable strain relief bracket on the back of the control head (W9 model) or on the mounting
trunnion (W4, W5, and W7 models).
2. Connect the plug from the speaker lead to the mating connector coming out of the control
cable connector or accessory cable harness (W3 model).
3. Plug the VIP connector into the remaining location on the back of the control head.
4. Connect the control cable to the radio and tighten the connector by tightening the jack
screws.
5. Be sure the control head and microphone PTT switches are OFF. Install the 15- or 20-amp
fuse in the radio power cable fuseholder and the 3- or 4-amp fuse(s) in the ignition cable
fuseholder(s).
6. Turn the radio ON at the control head and verify proper operation of all controls and
indicators. Radio operation in some installations require turning on the ignition. Perform a
complete operational check of the radio.
7. Dress the control and power cables out of the way to prevent damage (pull any excess cable
into the trunk area) securing with clamps and tie wraps where necessary.
CAUTION: For all except 100W radios: To ensure a proper water
seal, the jackscrews on the radio cable connector must be tight. If
the accessory port on a remote-mounted radio is not used, the
cover gasket assembly (HLN6233_) must be installed and torqued
to 6 to 8 inch-pounds.
