The ICON

interface to the vehicle. It also provides video reception and distribution.

Vehicle & Tether Connection
It is important that the tether be properly connected to the vehicle; otherwise, system damage or loss of
vehicle may result. The tether attachment procedure is the same for the parallel and in-line.
1.
Confirm the connector pins on the vehicle and tether are clean and lightly lubricated with silicone
grease (DOW Corning #4, Molykote 44, or equivalent).
2.
Visually line up the connector pins and push the connector all the way on.
3.
Fully screw down and hand tighten the locking collar.
4.
Secure the strain relief lanyards onto the vehicle using the tow cable clips illustrated below. Use
Loctite 243 (blue) to secure the screws.
5. Confirm the lanyards are also secured to the tether splice block.
