5.2 OPTIONAL MONITOR OPERATOR STATIONS
The electronic package for the Tornado RC is designed for multiple operator stations.
The operator stations use a RS-485
communication design and the communication boards in each station are connected in series. This gives the flexibility to choose more
than one location on a truck to operate the monitor. To install multiple operator stations, complete the following instructions in this
section and repeat for each additional station. The enclosure is designed to be recess mounted in a panel.

5.3 TETHER MONITOR OPERATOR STATION
This operator station will have a factory installed 4-conductor cable, which will act as a tether, with a plug on the end. The installer will
need to mount the holster and receptacle. Since the communication boards are connected in series, the receptacle for the tether
operator station needs to be wired into the last primary or optional operator station (if multiple recessed operator stations are installed,
refer to section 5.2).
The holster is supplied with(3) 1/4-20 stainless steel self-tapping screws. Make sure the material beneath the bracket is substantial and
thick enough to hold self-tapping screws. Make sure the area on the back side of the mounting surface is clear of obstructions. We
recommend a minimum thickness of 3/32" (.093" - 2.4 mm) in aluminum and 5/64 (.078"-2mm) in steel See the chart in Figure 5.3.1 to
determine the correct pilot hole size.
5.3.1 HOLSTER MOUNTING
Select proper location for mounting holster, preferably inside a storage compartment. Panel space required will be 6.5” x 8.0” (165 x
203mm). Refer to Figure 5.3.1for hole dimensions. Holster can be used as template.
