INSTALLATION
A. Unpacking – After unpacking the Model EH-100, examine it for damage
that may have occurred during transit. File a claim immediately with the
carrier stating the extent of the damage if the EH-100 has been damaged.
Carefully check all enveloped, shipping labels and tags before removing
or destroying them.
B. Amplifier Installation
a.
The EH-100 amplifier is not waterproof. It must be mounted in
a location that is sheltered from rain, snow, standing water, etc.
it must be also installed in an adequately ventilated area. Do
not install near heater ducts or under the vehicle’s hood.
b.
Some possible mounting locations are: in the trunk, under the
rear deck, under the front seat or in the equipment cabinet.
Keep in mind that the control cable is 3 meter (9.8 feet) long.
c.
Using the mounting holes on the amplifier as a template, scribe
four drill position marks at the mounting locations. Be sure that
both sides of the mounting surface are clear of parts that may
be damaged.
d.
The siren accessory kit with mounting hardware supplied
provides the siren user with a choice of mounting hardware.
Secure the EH-100 amplifier to the mounting surface, using the
mounting hardware, including lockwashers.
B. Handheld Controller Installation
a.
Although the handheld controller can be laid on any place in
the cab, it sometimes needs to be fastened in a certain place.
The installer then should ensure that the equipment is installed
only in the areas recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
Failure to observe this warning will reduce the effectiveness of
some safety equipments, such as the air bag, or damage the air
bag, causing serious injury or death to you or others.
b.
The location selected to mount the handheld controller and its
holder must not impair the driver’s ability to safely drive the
vehicle as he/she operates the siren. The selected location
should afford good visibility and free accessibility to the
handheld controller.
C. Electrical Installation
i.
Be caution that any hot wire (+12V) shorts to vehicle frame,
high current conductors can cause hazardous sparks resulting
in electrical fires or molten metal. It is recommended that
disconnect the cable on the negative end of the battery before
performing installation.
ii.
Do not connect the EH-100 system to vehicle battery until all
other electrical connections are made and mounting of all
components is complete. Verify the polarities of the cable
once again and ensure that no short circuits exist, before
connecting to the battery terminals.
iii.
Install the supplied 8-conductor, RJ45 cable between the siren.
