LIMITED WARRANTY TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Product Limited Warranty
Trimble Navigation Limited (“Trimble”) warrants that this product and
its internal components (the “Product”) shall be free from defects in
materials and workmanship and will substantially conform to Trimble’s
applicable published specifications for the Product for a period of two
(2) years, starting from the earlier of (i) the date of installation, or (ii) six
(6) months from the date of original Product shipment from Trimble.
Product Software
Product software, whether built into hardware circuitry as firmware,
provided as a standalone computer software product, embedded in flash
memory, or stored on magnetic or other media, is licensed solely for use
with or as an integral part of the Product and is not sold. If accompanied
by a separate end user license agreement (“EULA”), use of any such
software will be subject to the terms of such end user license agreement
(including any differing limited warranty terms, exclusions, and
limitations), which shall control over the terms and conditions set forth
in this limited warranty.
Software Fixes
During the limited warranty period you will be entitled to receive such
Fixes to the Product software that Trimble releases and makes
commercially available and for which it does not charge separately,
subject to the procedures for delivery to purchasers of Trimble products
generally. If you have purchased the Product from an authorized Trimble
dealer rather than from Trimble directly, Trimble may, at its option,
forward the software Fix to the Trimble dealer for final distribution to
you. Minor Updates, Major Upgrades, new products, or substantially
new software releases, as identified by Trimble, are expressly excluded
from this update process and limited warranty. Receipt of software Fixes
or other enhancements shall not serve to extend the limited warranty
period.
For purposes of this warranty the following definitions shall apply: (1)
“Fix(es)” means an error correction or other update created to fix a
previous software version that does not substantially conform to its
Trimble specifications; (2) “Minor Update” occurs when enhancements
are made to current features in a software program; and (3) “Major
Upgrade” occurs when significant new features are added to software, or
when a new product containing new features replaces the further
development of a current product line. Trimble reserves the right to
determine, in its sole discretion, what constitutes a Fix, Minor Update,
or Major Upgrade.
Warranty Remedies
If the Trimble Product fails during the warranty period for reasons
covered by this limited warranty and you notify Trimble of such failure
during the warranty period, Trimble will repair OR replace the
nonconforming Product with new, equivalent to new, or reconditioned
parts or Product, OR refund the Product purchase price paid by you, at
Trimble’s option, upon your return of the Product in accordance with
Trimble's product return procedures then in effect.

3 Additional Ports on the Power Cable
Attaching add-on cables to the basic power cable
Step 1: Preparing the connector
1. If connected, remove the power cable from the
EZ-Guide 250 lightbar.
2. Pull the connector wedgelock straight out with a pair of
needle-nose pliers. The wedgelock is the piece of orange
plastic.
3. Remove the plastic inserts from the location where you
will insert wires/pins.
Step 2: Inserting the contact
Note – This procedure shows a plug connector – use the same
procedure for a receptacle connector.

Page 23
1. Grasp the crimped contact approximately one inch behind
the contact barrel.
2. Each wire with a crimped-on pin is labeled with the
appropriate pin location number, as shown here. Connect
the wires to the pins.
3. Hold the connector with the rear grommet facing you.
