WIRING & CONNECTIONS
Label
Wire Color
Connection
+12VDC
Red
Connect to a switched positive (+12V) source. This can be an ignition
controlled, accessory circuit or a vessel battery equipped with a main
disconnect switch. For added control functionality, we also recommend
installing a dedicated toggle switch (not included) at this wire lead’s
+12V connection point.
Always install an appropriate fuse within 18
inches (45 cm) of the +12V connection.
If this is the only device using
the connection point, use a 15 amp fuse.
GROUND
Black
Connect to a clean metal chassis ground, if available. If no metal chassis
ground is available, it may be necessary to connect this to the NEGATIVE
battery post.
All ground connections (source unit and amplifiers)
should be made at the same location to minimize noise.
ILLUMINATION
Orange
Connect to a +12V lighting circuit to automatically switch the
illumination to night mode when the lights are activated.
AMP
TURN-ON
Blue
This wire provides a positive (+12V) turn-on voltage to activate
aftermarket amplifiers and equipment.
