1. Use the supplied template to mark the location where the rectangular
hole is to be cut. Confirm the space behind the dash or panel is deep
enough to accommodate the transceiver (at least 6.7” (17 cm) deep).
There should be at least 1/2” (1.3 cm) between the transceiver’s heatsink
and any wiring, cables or structures.
2. Cut out the rectangular hole and insert the transceiver.
3. Fasten the brackets to the sides of the transceiver with the lock washer
screw combination; so that the mounting screw base faces the mounting
surface (see illustration below).
4. Turn the adjusting screw to adjust the tension so that the transceiver is
tight against the mounting surface.

NOTE
A GPS receiver and antenna of the
GX2200
is located in the front
panel. In many cases the radio may be flush mounted, however
before cutting holes to flush mount the radio it is recommended to
temporarily connect the radio to power and turn on in the location
where it will be flush mounted to confirm it is able to receive a GPS
location on it’s display. If the radio is not able to receive a location, a
GPS Chart plotter with NMEA 0183 output or the optional Standard
Horizon external GPS antenna may be needed to receive GPS satel-
lite signals.
To use the optional Standard Horizon external GPS antenna
(Q7000619A), the
GX2200
internal GPS Unit Power must be turned
OFF (refer to section “
15.1 UNIT POWER
”) and the GPS Selection
changed to External GPS (refer to section “
15.9 POSITION DATA
PRIORITY
”).
