The radar processor must be connected to a dedicated fuse/circuit breaker. The fuse/circuit
breaker should be labeled accordingly.
To connect the power cable to the radar processor, you must:
1.
Strip away approximately 0.4” (10 mm) of the insulation at the end of each core of the power
cable
2.
Unscrew the small retention screw from the positive input connector (identifi ed by the + sign)
on the radar processor
3.
Insert the bare end of the positive wire into the positive power cable input connector to make
a connection
4.
Tighten the small holding screw to hold the positive wire in place. Gently pull on the positive
wire to ensure that it is secured
5.
Repeat this process to connect the negative wire to the negative power cable input connector
(identifi ed by the – sign)
