A Guide to TracVision R5/R4

2.3 Connecting System Components

The following sections provide instructions for properly wiring

the antenna unit to the components inside the vehicle.

Locating the Switchplate

A switchplate has been provided to serve as the hub of the

TracVision R5/R4 wiring (with the exception of the RF cable,

which will be connected to the receiver). This switchplate

includes an ON/OFF switch and a DB9 maintenance port for

easy access to the antenna unit’s software and diagnostics.

Follow the steps below to select and prepare the switchplate

mounting location.

1. Select a location to mount the TracVision R5/R4

switchplate. It should be installed in a dry, flat

location within reach of the cables that will

connect to the antenna unit.

2. Once you’ve decided on a suitable location, create

a panel cutout in the mounting surface.

Figure 2-9 illustrates the mounting dimensions

and a full-scale template has been provided in

Appendix B. The connecting cables will be routed

through this cutout.
