INSTALLATION
Location
The MST660 is designed to be mounted in several different ways to enable it
to be installed in the most convenient position. Although the unit is water
resistant when the front cover is closed, care should be taken to locate it
where it will not be subjected to spray or rain. The unit should be mounted
with an angle of less than 20° to the horizontal plane (see diagram) and in a
position that is free from direct sunlight and excessive vibration.
Upright or Overhead Mounting
1. Attach the two gimbal knobs and the self-adhesive rubber washers to the
MST660 and slide the unit into the mounting bracket. Ensure the rubber
washers are between the bracket and the CD player’s case. Tighten the
knobs firmly.
2. Temporarily position the MST660 in the desired location and roughly mark
the location of the bracket edges. Now, remove the unit from the bracket
and reposition the bracket to mark the mounting hole positions. A range of
mounting holes is provided to suit most installations.
3. Screw or bolt the bracket into position. The mounting method will depend
on the material to which the bracket is being attached.
4. Slide the MST660 back into the bracket slots and adjust for the correct
position before tightening the gimbal knobs. Remember to avoid
exceeding the maximum mounting angle of 20°.
5. Complete the antenna lead and electrical wiring as described later.

Flush Mounting
The MST660 can be neatly flush mounted into a panel or bulkhead so that just
the controls and the protective cover are visible. There are two flush mounting
options available. The best option for you will depend on your particular
situation.
• If the space behind the bulkhead or panel you have selected has a suitable
support shelf and the area is fully accessible, you can use the supplied
escutcheon panel as described later.
• If the space behind the bulkhead or panel is largely inaccessible or there is
no additional support shelf, we recommend you use the optional CMB60
flush mounting kit (available as an accessory). This kit is more robust, is
fully self supporting and allows the MST660 to be installed from the front.
Installation using the supplied Escutcheon Panel.
1. Select a suitable location on a panel or bulkhead. Examine behind the
bulkhead to determine the best method of support for the CD player.
2. Place the escutcheon on the panel or bulkhead in the required position
and mark around the outside edge of the escutcheon slot wall.
3. Remove the escutcheon and measure the marks. They should measure
approximately 7.87'' wide and 2.76'' high. If not, check the diagram above
to ensure that you measured the correct edge.

4. If your measurements are correct, carefully cut the slot around the marked
lines, ensuring that you maintain the curves in each corner. Mark and drill
the four 0.08'' holes in the bulkhead to accept the locating pins at each
corner of the escutcheon.
5. Trial fit the escutcheon to ensure it fits securely against the panel. If all is
well, place a small dab of glue on each locating pin and press the
escutcheon into place. Temporarily hold with tape if necessary.
6. With the escutcheon firmly glued in place, slide the MST660 through the
slot from the front and push it all the way in, while leaving a clearance for
the front cover to hang in the open position. Open the cover if necessary
to ensure the correct clearance.
7. Holding everything in position, mark the location of the internal support
bracket(s). Drill the required holes and fit the bracket(s) as required to hold
the MST660 firmly in place.
Note: If using the perforated metal support strip, mount it to the rear of the
MST660 as shown in the diagram below.
8. Complete the antenna lead, speaker and power wiring as described later.

Referring to the wiring diagram:
1. Connect the Red wire labelled ‘BATTERY B+’ directly to the positive
terminal of the vessel’s battery, or to a point which has +12 Volts available
at all times. This lead maintains the memories within the MST660 and is
the main power source for the unit.
2. Connect the Orange wire labelled ‘POWER B+’ to the vessel’s +12V
supply via an appropriate isolating switch or circuit breaker. This lead turns
the radio ON and OFF. Alternatively, this wire can be connected directly to
the battery’s positive terminal and the MST660 switched ON and OFF
using it’s own controls.
3. Connect the Black lead labelled ‘GROUND’ to the battery’s negative
terminal or to the common negative bus in the electrical system.
Important: Your MST660 is able to maintain it’s memories when it is switched
off by drawing power directly from your battery via the Red ‘BATTERY B+’
lead. Although the memory backup current is very small (about 4 mA) it may
eventually discharge your battery if left connected indefinitely. The time taken
to completely discharge your battery could vary depending on it’s Amp-hour
rating and condition.
If you do not run your boat’s motor regularly or your battery is not kept
charged between outings (e.g. Solar or wind charger), we recommend you
disconnect the Red lead each time you secure your boat. This is easily done
by connecting the Red ‘Battery B+’ lead via a Master switch which can be
switched off after each outing.

Speaker Connections
When connecting the speakers, observe the correct polarity as shown in the
diagram. Incorrect polarity will result in a reduction of Bass response and stereo
effect. The use of speakers with an impedance of less that 4 Ohms is not
recommended, as they will cause excessive loading of the MST660’s output
circuit.
Caution: The MST660 is a four speaker system that requires 2 separate wires
for each speaker.
• DO NOT connect the negative (-ve) terminals of the speaker wires
together or ground them to any part of the negative electrical Bus.
• DO NOT short the +ve and –ve speaker wires together.
Damage caused by the above will not be covered under warranty.
Connect all four speakers as shown in the diagram. Adjust the Fader control
for the required front/rear balance. If you wish to connect only two speakers,
connect these to the Rear speaker wires. The remaining speaker wires should
be insulated to ensure they cannot short circuit together or to ground. If using
only two speakers, adjust the Fader control to the Rear speakers.

TROUBLE SHOOTING
The following checks will assist you in solving most of the problems you are
likely to encounter after installing your MST660. Should any problem persist
after you have tried these ideas, consult your dealer for advice.
ERROR CODES
The MST660 is controlled by an advanced microprocessor. If a problem
occurs with the unit’s normal operation, the microprocessor will sense this and
display an error code. If the error codes E1, E2 or E3 appear on the display at
any time, remove the front panel and press the Reset button. In most
instances, this will fix the problem. If the error persists, return your MST660 to
your dealer for repair.
