SAFETY INFORMATION

The operator of any mobile radio should be aware of certain hazards
common to the operation of vehicular radio transmissions. A list of

several possible hazards is given:

1. Explosive Atmospheres - Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle
with the motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a
mobile radio, be sure to turn the radio off while fueling the vehicle.
Do not carry containers of fuel in the trunk of the vehicle if the radio
is mounted in the trunk.

2. Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems - Electronic fuel
injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic
cruise control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that may
malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency
energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such
equipment, consult the dealer and enlist their aid in determining the
expected performance of electronic circuits when the radio is
transmitting.

3. Dynamite Blasting Caps - Dynamite blasting caps may be caused to
explode by operating a radio within 500 feet of the blasting caps.
Always obey the "Turn Off Two-Way Radios" signs posted where
dynamite is being used.

When transporting blasting caps in your vehicle:

A. Carry the blasting caps in a closed metal box with a soft lining.

B. Leave the radio OFF whenever the blasting caps are being put

into or removed from the vehicle.

4. Liquefied Petroleum (LP) Gas Powered Vehicles - Mobile radio
installations in vehicles powered by liquefied petroleum gas with the
LP gas container in the trunk or other sealed-off space within the
interior of the vehicle must conform to the National Fire Protection
Association standard (NFPA) 58 requiring:

A. The space containing the radio equipment shall be isolated by a

seal from the space containing the LP gas container and its
fittings.

B. Outside filling connections shall be used for the LP gas

container.

C. The LP gas container shall be vented to the outside of the

vehicle.

PLANNING THE INSTALLATION

Figure 4 provides an example of a typical mobile radio remote mount
installation. Before starting, plan the radio installation carefully so that it
will be:

• safe for the operator and passengers,

• convenient for the operator to use,

• neat,

• protected from water damage,

• easy to service,

• out of the way of auto mechanics, and

• out of the way of passengers.

Figure 4 – Typical Installation (Remote Mount Shown)

It is suggested that the radio be installed by one of the many M/A-COM
Authorized Service Centers located throughout the United States. These
experienced service stations can provide a proper radio installation and
make any final adjustments that may be needed.

10

CAUTION

WARNING

Vehicular Electronics - Electronic fuel injection
systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems,
electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical of the
types of electronic devices which may be prone to
malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio
frequency energy present when a radio is transmitting.
If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the
dealer to determine if such electronic equipment will
perform normally when the radio is transmitting.

For passenger safety, mount the radio securely so that
the unit will not break loose in the event of a collision.
This is especially important in station wagons, vans and
similar type installations where a loose radio could be
extremely dangerous to the vehicle occupants.

CAUTION

CAUTION

Be careful to avoid damaging some vital part (fuel
tank, transmission housing, etc.) of the vehicle when
drilling mounting holes. Always check to see how far
the mounting screws will extend below the mounting
surface before installing.

If pilot holes must be drilled, remove all metal shavings
from drilling holes before installing screws.

INSTALLATION

RUNNING CABLES

To assure the feasibility of the planned cable routings, it is suggested that
the cables be run before mounting the radio. The J
radio may be installed as a Front Mount or a Remote Mount. The type of
mount, the application and the options to be installed should be
considered when planning the cable runs. Error! Reference source not
found. through Figure 6 provide Interconnection Diagrams for typical
installations. Error! Reference source not found. through Figure 6
should be referenced throughout this manual and throughout the
installation.

Be sure to leave some slack in each cable going to the radio so that the
radio may be pulled out for servicing with the power applied and antenna
attached. Coil any surplus cables and secure them out of the way. Try to
route the cables away from locations where they will be exposed to heat
(exhaust pipes, mufflers, tailpipes, etc.), battery acid, sharp edges or
mechanical damage or where they will be a nuisance to automobile
mechanics, the driver or passengers. Keep wiring away from electronic
computer modules, other electronic modules and ignition circuits to help
prevent interference to these components and radio equipment.

In addition, try to utilize existing holes in the firewall, trunk wall and the
channels above or beneath doors. Channels through door and window
columns that are convenient for running cables may also be used, unless
rigid or flexible conduit is to be installed for cable runs.

Power Cable

The power cable (19B802622P3) consists of a red lead A+ and a black
lead A- connected to a molded 2-pin power connector and supplied with
ring terminals (refer to Figure 7). To install the power cable:

1. Drill a 5/8-inch hole in the firewall for the cable run and insert the

rubber grommet. Run the cable through this grommet to the battery
location. Secure the cable at several locations within the engine
compartment to prevent possible damage to cable.

2. Strip back the insulation approximately 3/8 of an inch from the end

of the black lead. Slide one of the large heat shrink sleeves onto the
wire and crimp a battery ring terminal onto this lead. Heat shrink the
sleeve over the crimp connection. Connect the black lead directly to
the battery negative (-) or ground frame member.

3. Cut off 12-18 inches from the red lead. Strip back the insulation

approximately 3/8 of an inch on each end of the wires. Insert the

14

wire ends into the small openings at the end of each fuse holder
section and crimp a fuse connector to each wire. Prepare the other
end of the short wire in the same manner as in Step 2 of this
procedure and connect to the positive (+) terminal of the battery.

Do not install the fuse holder until the installation is
completed and all connections have been checked.

NOTE

Power Cable 19B802622P3 is used only with radios
with 50 watts or less RF power output.

NOTE

NOTE

NOTE

The radio, as shipped from the factory, has the
"ignition sense" feature disabled. As such the radio
will be powered ON or OFF as determined by the front
panel ON/OFF/VOLUME control only (assuming A+
and A- are connected). If it is desired to enable the
"ignition sense" feature, open the top cover of the radio
and remove the shield from logic PWB. Slide switch
SW601 from position 3-2 to 1-2. Replace shield and
top cover. Be sure to apply correct torque to screws
holding top cover in place. See Maintenance Manual.

The "Accessory" point should drop to ZERO volts
when cranking the engine and return to +12 volts after
the engine is started. If a point is chosen that drops to a
voltage between zero and +12 volts, the radio may
execute a power-up cycle several times during start up.
It is recommended that the terminal be measured with a
voltmeter to be sure it shuts off (goes to zero volts)
during the cranking of the engine.

The fuse holder must be attached to the yellow sense lead along with the
ring terminal as follows:

1. Cut the yellow sense lead approximately 6-12" from the end that will

be connected to the power source.

2. Strip the insulation from each end of the short lead and from the end

of the long lead at least 3/8".

3. Insert the stripped end of the long lead and one end of the short lead

into the narrow end of each fuse holder half.

4. Crimp the leads in the fuse holder halves with a crimping tool.

5. Insert the 3 amp fuse into one end of the fuse holder and join the two

fuse holder halves firmly together.

6. Attach the ring terminal to the end of the short lead and connect this

lead to the ignition "ON" sense point [preferably an "Accessory"
point (in the vehicle fuse panel) that is switched on when the vehicle
ignition switch is in the ACCESSORY and RUN positions].

18

CAUTION

Certain problems may be encountered when accessory
equipment is connected to the ignition or accessory
lines of the vehicle, where these lines may have large
filter capacitors and a leakage path present. If the radio
does not turn off within a reasonable amount of time
after the ignition is turned off, first try a different
accessory or ignition sense pick up point in the vehicle.
Many vehicles have more than one circuit that is
switched by the ignition switch, and one may be
available that does not have large filter capacitors or a
leakage path present.

If a different pickup point cannot be found, add a 470­ohm, 1-watt resistor from the ignition sense pick point
to ground. This will discharge the capacitor(s) or
reduce the leakage voltage to a low value. Current
drain through this resistor will be minimal (less than

0.03A) when the ignition is switched on.

Control Cable (Remote Mount Only)

The Control Cable is used to connect the Control Unit (through the RIA)
to the Radio Transceiver in remote applications. Plug P2, at one end,
connects to the Remote Control Cable Connector (RCCC) mounted on
the back of the RIA. The Ignition Sense wire is also part of P2. The
connection, P5, is available for field programming, keyloading, or mobile
data applications. The other end of the Control Cable (P1) connects to
the ORCC mounted on the back of the radio. See Figure 10.

CONTROL UNIT MOUNTING

(Remote Applications Only)

1. Using the bracket as a template, mark and drill the mounting holes.

Be sure to leave enough room at the rear of the control unit for the
cable connector. Refer to Figure 11 for control unit mounting bracket
installation.

2. Secure the mounting bracket using the four No. 10 x 3/4 self-tapping

SIREN & LIGHT

For instructions about installing the Federal Signal Corporation Siren &
Light Kit, refer to the Federal Signal Corporation Installation Instructions
(Federal Systems part number 255287B, rev. B or higher).

Program the J

AGUAR

725M mobile radio to work with the Federal
Systems Siren & Light Kit, using the instructions outlined in the
ProGrammer On-Line Help.

NOTE: The following issues have been reported on some J

AGUAR

725M
Siren/Light installations using the Federal Signal Corporation Siren &
Light Kit:

• Occasional false activation of siren & light functions when the

ignition is turned to the “on” position and/or when the vehicle is
started.

• Occasional failure to enable siren or light functions via control head,

which can be temporarily resolved by either power cycling the
J

AGUAR

725M radio or turning the car ignition “off” and then “on”

again.

To resolve these issues above, modify the Federal Systems control cable
as follows:

1. Remove the outer shell from the DB25 side of the Federal

Systems control cable.

2. Add a jumper from pin 1 to pin 19.

This modification to the SS2000 cable harness will disable the J
725M capability to turn on and off the SS2000 from the front of the
control head. The SS2000 will now be turned on and off strictly by its

22

DUAL RADIO UNITS

The Dual Radio feature can be configured either for two remote mount
radio units or one front mount unit and one remote mount unit. In remote
mount configurations the Control Unit is typically located in the vehicle
cab, with the Radio Units located side-by-side in vehicle trunk. In
front/remote mount configurations the front mount unit is located in the
vehicle cab, with the remote mount unit located in a convenient location
nearby. The remote/remote mount configuration is the preferred
installation, since a separate control unit is required to program the remote
unit in a front/remote mount configuration.

The following Dual Radio Unit configurations are not allowed:

1. Any configuration using a DIN cassette mount.

2. Any installation where Extended Options are required from both Radio
Units. Extended Options are supported in one Radio Unit only.

PRE-INSTALLATION PROGRAMMING PROCEDURE
WITH PC PROGRAMMER – DUAL RADIO UNITS

All Radio Units in the Dual Radio configuration MUST BE
PROGRAMMED prior to final installation. It is recommended that the
units be first programmed at an Authorized Service Center, then
transferred to the user's installation.

NOTE

Both the J725M Master and J725M Slave mobiles must be
programmed with the same Group version of Flash code. The Group
version must be G30 or later. Failure to do so may result in inadvertent
lockup states in the dual radio configuration.

These configurations provide for a Master Radio Unit and a Slave Radio
Unit. In the remote/remote mount configuration, the Master Radio Unit is
always the radio most directly connected to the Control Unit. In the
front/remote mount configuration, the Master Radio Unit is always the front
mount radio. Extended Options are allowed only in the Master Radio Unit.
Programming each radio is straightforward, except that one radio is
programmed as a Master, and one as a Slave.

1. Decide which Radio Unit shall be the Master Unit. Configure the radio
for programming as shown in the applicable service section manual.

2. Program the radio with the following control configurations:

ANTENNA

Installation instructions for the antenna are packaged with the antenna.
The antenna must be installed in accordance with good engineering
practice for optimum results.

Typical Mobile Antenna Installation

A permanent mount-type antenna should be located in the center of the
roof or center of rear deck. Important Note: Rear deck mounting of an

antenna is only applicable when the installation provides at least 20
centimeters (8 inches) between the antenna and occupants of the
vehicle. This distance recommendation is made using a 50% duty
cycle.

See “Safety Training Information” section at the
beginning of this manual for further information
regarding Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) limits of

WARNING

RF radiation absorption set by the FCC.

Try to route the cable away from locations where it will be exposed to
heat, sharp edges or mechanical damage, and where it will be out of the
way of the driver, passengers or vehicles mechanics. Wherever possible,
existing holes in the trunk wall, and the channels above or beneath doors
and window columns should be utilized.

Avoid routing the antenna cable near any electronic modules or along
side any vehicle wiring.

Connect the antenna cable to the TNC on the radio, being careful not to
twist the cable.
