Secondary Switch Box Control –
Using the Secondary Control Switch Box template in the Component Mounting Templates
section, mark the mounting holes on panel or bracket.
Drill two 9/32” diameter holes in panel or bracket.
Remove ¼-20 screws and lock washers from back of box. Insert screws with lock washers
through backside of panel or bracket into mounting holes in box. Tighten screws.
Auxiliary Battery –
Using the Auxiliary Battery template in the Component Mounting Templates section, mark
locations of mounting holes on mounting surface or bracket.
Drill four (4) 21/64” diameter mounting holes.
Open hinged cover of battery enclosure by loosening the four screws. Insert one 5/16-18 UNC
socket head cap screw from the inside of the enclosure through each of the four (4) mounting
holes of the enclosure and into the corresponding holes in the mounting surface or bracket.
Assemble nuts and lock washers to each mounting screw, then tighten.
Plug the female connector of the battery pack into the male connector at the base of the
monitor.
Place a 10A fuse between the red lead (pin C) of the monitor and a switched positive power
lead on the vehicle. Attach the black lead (pin A) from the monitor base to the vehicle ground.
The white lead (pin B) is for an optional “Stow Indicator” which could be attached to a relay or
LED supplied by the OEM. The circuit switches in a ground, and is limited to 250 mA of current
when the monitor is in a non-stowed position.
Installation Step 2: Communication Address
An RF Controller controls one 8593-04 Copperhead RF monitor. The controller is digitally encoded
with a security code ensuring that it does not accidentally control the wrong monitor. The receiver has a
matching decoder and security code that instantly decodes and interprets commands. The security code
is a 15-bit selectable code that is set on both the remote transmitter and receiver.
The monitors are tested and shipped with a security code based upon the monitor serial number,
ensuring each monitor leaves the factory with a unique code assigned to it. The security settings will
normally not need to be changed. In the case of a lost transmitter or replaced control board, contact
Elkhart Brass.
Danger:
Using two W.E.T. monitors with the same security code may cause the
inadvertent control of the wrong monitor, resulting in possible property damage and
injury to personnel. Using the factory specified codes will help prevent this.
Caution:
Do NOT pinch wires when attaching back panel to front panel of the
handheld enclosure. Ensure all O-rings and gaskets are properly installed when closing
the receiver or transmitter enclosures.
Important:
The RF Receiver/Control Module and all transmitter communication
addresses have been factory set. They should not require any additional address setup.
