5.3.3 ELECTRICAL WIRING
See section 5.1.2
5.4 WIRELESS MONITOR OPERATOR STATION
This operator station consists of the wireless transmitter, receiver, receiver output cable, and charging cradle. The installer will need to
mount the wireless receiver and wire it into the primary operator station. The charging cradle will need to be mounted in a weatherproof
location and wired to a protected voltage supply.
The receiver is supplied with #¼-20 stainless steel self-tapping screws. Make sure the material beneath the receiver is substantial and
thick enough to hold self-tapping screws. Make sure the area on the back side of the mounting surface is clear of obstructions. We
recommend a minimum thickness of 3/32" (.093" - 2.4 mm) in aluminum and 5/64 (.078"-2mm) in steel. See the chart in Figure 5.4.1 to
determine the correct pilot hole size.
5.3.2 RECEPTACLE MOUNTING
Select proper location for mounting receptacle. Receptacle is 1 ¼” x 1 ¼” and ½” deep. Allow extra room behind receptacle for
wires. Refer to Figure 5.3.2 for cutout and hole dimensions.

5.4.1 MOUNTING - RECEIVER
Select proper location for mounting receiver. The receiver has a built in antenna and needs to be in an open area so that it can receive
the wireless signals. A location on the top of the truck is preferable.
The optimal operating range is 500' (150 m). Check the
operating range after mounting receiver. If range is inadequate, the receiver may need to be remounted in a more exposed
area.
The receiver must be mounted so that the supplied 10' output cable can be routed back to the primary operator station. Be sure to
mount receiver so that the Deutsch connector is pointing down. Receiver size is 5.1” x 4.0” (130 x 102mm). Refer to Figure 5.4.1 for
hole dimensions. Receiver can be used as template.
