Installation Guide
RC M CPU Installation Tips
1. Install the CPU under the dash using the
supplied zip ties or 3M Adhesive Tape
NOTE: Do not mount the CPU inside the vehicle’s
engine compartment. It is not weather-sealed.
2. Plug in the power harness to the CPU (it is the
only wire with a plug that will physically
fi
t), and
connect the black wire (-) to ground, and the
red wire to a switched 12-volt power supply. It
is highly recommended to wire the CPU to a 12v
power source that is turns on and o
ff
along with
the car’s ignition. Connecting directly to the
battery may drain the vehicle’s battery.
3. The cables for the front and rear radar
antennas, front and rear AL Priority sensors, GPS
antenna, RC M display, and AL Priority bridge box
all plug into the CPU.
4. It is recommended that after the interface
is installed and connected to power, all other
components are plugged in and tested for proper
operation before completing the installation.
Front Radar Receiver
1. Determine the best location for the front radar
antenna. Typically, the best location is behind a
fl
at portion of the plastic bumper. Alternately, the
antenna can be mounted behind the grill.
2. Using the included stainless steel bolts and
nuts, secure the antenna to the included black
metal mounting plate.
3. Using the included hardware, secure the
mounting plate/antenna assembly to a suitable
structure on the car. You can use self tapping
screws, or bolts with matching nuts.
4. Route the cable from the antenna through a
safe location under the hood, and plug it into the
matching extension cord.
5. The next step is to pass the extension cord
through the
fi
rewall and into the cabin of the
vehicle. Locate a suitable entry point (usually
an unused grommet) and slide the cable gently
through the opening and into the interior.
6. Plug the cable into the RC M CPU.
AL Priority Bridge Box
1. Install the AL Priority Bridge Box under the
dash in a location that is close to the RC M CPU
using the supplied zip ties or 3M Adhesive Tape.
2. Plug in the included bridge cable to the AL
Priority Bridge Box, and then plug the other end
into the RC M CPU.
3. Plug the Bridge Box power harness into the
port marked “power,” and connect the black wire
to ground and the red wire to a 12v power source.
AL Priority Front Sensors
1. It is absolutely critical that the AL Priority
sensors be installed properly; since laser is line of
sight, if the sensors are obscured they will not be
able to defend against a laser encounter.
