CLAMPS
1. Decide the best
location for the cables
to enter
the vehicle,
and
the
location of the power switch
and receiver
(see “Installing the switch and
receiver”on pages 9 and 10). Drill a 1/2” hole in the
roof, push wires inside. Make proper connections.
You must have fi12 VDC power source
.
2. Place cable-entry plate over hole and cables.
Screw in place. Seal plate and screw holes with ap-
proved sealant (not included).
3. Depending on the length of the cable on the roof,
you may need to use cable clamps or wire ties (not
provided) between the unit and your cable-entry plate.
Clamping the cable every 12”-16” should eliminate
any unnecessary cable movement, Figure 6.

INSTALLING THE POWER SWITCH
1. Choose a location to install the MV3500T power
ON/OFF switch. Remember when selecting a location
that you will need to run the +12VDC power cable
from the MV3500T to the switch.
Be sure the
switch is in the OFF position before continuing.
See Figure 7 page 9.
Wall or panel mount
: Drill 1-1/4” hole, pull wires
through wall or panel.
Surface mount
: Determine location and direction of
box. Mount box and feed wire into one of the box open
ings. Snap the rocker switch into the switch plate.
Be
sure switch is off!
2. Connect the ground wire from the vehicle and the
BLACK ground wire from the MV3500T together,
using large yellow flag connector.
3. Connect the YELLOW flag connector to
the silver spade on the switch.
4. Connect the RED wire from the MV unit to the
small RED flag connector.
5. Connect small RED flag connector to center
spade on switch.
6. Connect the +12 V power wire from the vehicle to
a small RED flag connector.
7. Connect small RED flag connect to isolated

INSTALLING THE DOME
Insert screw in holes on dome
rim. Be sure bolt is vertical;
not tilted to side. Tighten to
20 in.-lb., or approximately
until washer is visible
around screw head.
CAUTION:
DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN!!
10. The GPS antenna is pre-wired and has a 1 meter
cable running through one of the connectors.
Determine location for GPS antenna. It is recom-
mended you place the GPS antenna 3 feet from
dome and away from any other obstruction.
The recommended location for the GPS antenna is
based on having a level location and a clear view of
the sky for the best satellite signal acquisition. Do not
secure GPS antenna to roof at this time.
IMPORTANT!
The GPS must be located minimum of
3 feet away from obstructions on roof of vehicle.
An-
tenna must have a clear view of the sky for proper
operation.

BEFORE INSTALLING THE DOME, verify that
switches are set to your satellite provider.
