Radio Installation

Considerations

All Uniden radios and associated accessories are tested before shipment to ensure operational status. However, since vehicle configuration in which Uniden radios and accessories are installed are non-standard, Uniden recommends the following installations considerations .

Power Requirements

The SMUP250KTS requires a 13.6V DC, 10 ampere power source with a negative ground. Install a fuse in the power leads near the power source to protect the power source compartment and passenger compartment from fire and electrical hazards. (The AMX 120A Power Cable is equipped with an in-line 15 ampere fuse.) If the radio is connected directly to the vehicle battery, a fuse must be installed as close to the battery terminal as possible.

Route power leads to minimize proximity to other electrical systems such as instruments, engine electrical components, braking systems, entertainment systems, etc.

Secure power leads to supporting structures or components with insulated clamps that completely isolate the power leads from the supporting structures or components. When power leads are routed through a firewall, bulkhead, or similar structure, use a rubber grommet to protect power leads from chafing.

Antenna

Follow antenna manufacturer's mounting instructions. Mount antenna in a location which gives the highest unrestricted radiation pattern. Use low loss, 95% shielded, Teflon coaxial cable between antenna and radio antenna jack. Keep antenna cable length short to insure maximum power output.

Mounting

Mount the equipment with your safety and the safety of others in mind. Do not obstruct the operator's physical or visual access to the controls. Ensure easy access to the microphone and radio controls. Be sure the equipment does not interfere with the vehicle's operation.
