Hardware Installation
This section covers the installation of the Qualifier Vehicular Mounted Transmitter and Dual
Band Antenna in a Vehicle with a 12-volt negative ground.
The Qualifier Meter is a battery powered hand held unit, and requires no installation.
Planning Your Installation
Magnetic Mount Dual Band Antenna - The antenna is placed near the center of the
vehicle roof with the cable running perpendicular to the centerline of the roof. The antenna
cable is approximately 15 feet long and connects to the transmitter.
Transmitter Assembly - The transmitter is permanently mounted and electrically grounded
in the passenger or cargo compartment of the vehicle. The transmitter requires a mounting
space of approximately 4 1/2 inch by 10 1/4 inch. An additional clearance of approximately
1-inch may be required for the transmitter cables. A 6 1/2 inch ground cable connects the
transmitter mounting bracket to the chassis of the vehicle. Maintain access to the transmitter
front panel power switch and indicators. Turn the transmitter off when not needed. This will
reduce any unnecessary drain on the vehicle battery during extended periods of non-use. Use
the hardware supplied with the system.
Transmitter Powering Cable - The cable assembly is approximately 16 feet long and
connects the transmitter to the vehicle battery. The cable has two sections. The longer
section is approximately 15 feet long and extends from the transmitter into the vehicle
engine compartment or battery location. The shorter section is the fused battery cable. It
connects to the longer section and to the vehicle battery terminals. The fused battery cable is
approximately 1 foot long.
Installing Your System
Please observe the following while installing your system.
•
Wear eye protection when installing the system and working near a vehicle battery.
•
When disconnecting battery cables in a vehicle, remove the Negative (- black) battery
terminal first. Then remove the Positive (+ red) battery terminal last. Reconnect the
Positive (+ red) terminal first and the Negative (- black) terminal last.
•
Vehicle must have a 12-volt negative ground electrical system.
•
Insure no mounting hardware makes contact with any wiring, fuel/brake lines or other
components.
•
Insure the mounting position of the transmitter is clear of obstacles.
•
Protect the system from metal debris.
•
Do not route wiring through sharp edged openings or potential pinch points to prevent
future failures and safety hazards.
•
Maintain at least one inch of clearance around the transmitter for proper cooling.
