◆Connecting the Mobile to the Power Supply
The machine can be installed as a mobile radio or as a base station.
To install the mobile as a base station, the voltage regulated DC power supply of 13.8V voltage and
15A current is required.
1．Connect the DC power cable to the voltage regulated DC power supply, and check if the polarity is
correct (red: positive, Black: negative).
● Do not directly connect the mobile to an AC socket.
● Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the mobile to the voltage regulated DC power supply.
● Do not use a smaller gauge electric wire to replace the cable.
2．Connect the mobile radio DC power connector to the DC power cable connector. Press two joints
until the lock click is heard.
● Before connecting the DC power supply with the mobile radio, turn off the power of the mobile and
the DC power supply

solve the problem. Replace the fuse after the problem is
solved. If the new fuse is continuously broken,
disconnect the power cable and contact your dealer or
service center for help.
● Use only the specified type and rating of fuse ,
otherwise the mobile radio may be damaged.
● fuse rating : 15A/32V.
