A list of several possible hazards is given: 1. Explosive Atmospheres - Just as it is dangerous to fuel a vehicle with the motor running, similar hazards exist when operating a mobile radio, be sure to turn the radio off while fueling the vehicle. Do not carry containers of fuel in the trunk of the vehicle if the radio is mounted in the trunk. 2. Interference to Vehicular Electronics Systems - Electronic fuel injection systems, electronic anti-skid braking systems, electronic cruise control systems, etc., are typical electronic systems that may malfunction due to the lack of protection from radio frequency energy present when transmitting. If the vehicle contains such equipment, consult the dealer and enlist their aid in determining the expected performance of electronic circuits when the radio is transmitting. 3. Dynamite Blasting Caps - Dynamite blasting caps may be caused to explode by operating a radio within 500 feet of the blasting caps. Always obey the "Tu…

All rights reserved. 3 MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) LIMITS RADIO OPERATOR WARNING Do not transmit with this radio and antenna when persons are within the MPE Radius of the antenna, unless such persons (such as the driver or radio operator) are shielded from the antenna field by a grounded metallic barrier (such as the user’s vehicle rooftop). The MPE Radius is the minimum distance from the antenna axis that persons should maintain in order to avoid RF exposure higher than the allowable MPE level set by the FCC. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE LIMITS MAY ALLOW THOSE WITHIN THE MPE RADIUS TO EXPERIENCE RF RADIATION ABSORPTION WHICH EXCEEDS THE FCC MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE (MPE) LIMIT. IT IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE RADIO OPERATOR TO ENSURE THAT THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE EXPOSURE LIMITS ARE OBSERVED AT ALL TIMES DURING RADIO TRANSMISSION. THE RADIO OPERATOR IS TO ENSURE THAT NO BYSTANDERS COME WITHIN THE RADIUS OF THE MAXIMUM PERMISSIBLE …

15 To use the Ignition Sense line in any application, the option cable must be wired accordingly, see the section Connect To Ignition Sense on page 18. There are three parameters that define how the Ignition Sense feature will operate - a jumper on the radio (as described above), and two programmable parameters in the personality. The programmable parameters enable/disable Transmission and/or Horn Alert with respect to the vehicle ignition switch. For more information on the personality parameters, see the On-Line Help in Conventional ProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer (TQ-3385 R9A or later). Figure 4 – Factory Default Settings For Jumper JP600 16 Connect Option Cable This section applies to installations that require an option cable. The option cable (RPM 113 7674/1) is required if you are installing: ! External Speaker ! Internal/External Speaker Option ! Car Horn Alert ! Ignition Sense ! External Modulation ! External Demodulation To connect the option cable to the radio: 1. Remove the two Phillips screws holding the plastic cover in place, from the back of the radio, see Figure 5. Figure 5 – Removing Plastic Cover 2. Insert the option cable through the hole left by removing the plastic cover. This will allow the connector to fit through the hole in the back of the radio. 3. Plug the option cable connector into J3 on the radio circuit board. 4. Finally attach cable with the two Phillips screws. STEP 4 – PROGRAM THE RADIO All radios must be programmed with a radio personality. There are many parameters in the P ANTHER 300M mobile radio that need to be setup and defined for the radio to operate appropriately for each application. Conventional ProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer (TQ-3385 R9A or later) is the software used to create 17 the personality for the P ANTHER 300M radio. The radio personality is a computer file that defines all the operating parameters for the radio. For more information on programming the P ANTHER 300M radio, see the On-Line Help provided with Conventional ProGrammer (TQ-3389 R9A or later) or ProGrammer (TQ-3385 R9A or later). Typically, the radio is programmed before it is installed in a vehicle. STEP 5 – INSTALL CABLES The P ANTHER 300M Mobile Radio is installed as a front mount radio. The location of the mount, the application and the options to be installed should be considered when planning the cable runs. The cable diagram in Figure 1 should be referenced throughout the installation process. Power Cable The power cable RPM 113 7674/10 consists of a two-wire cable, see Figure 6. The red fused lead supplies power to the radio directly from the vehicle battery. Ignition Sense lead, through the separate option cable, is used by the radio electronics to determine when the ignition switch is turned on. The black lead is the radio ground connection. To install the power cable: 1. Remove the fuse from the power cable. 2. When the power cable is wired directly to the vehicle’s battery it is necessary to route the red power lead through the vehicle’s firewall. If an existing hole is not conveniently located in the firewall, drill a 1/2-inch hole in the firewall for the cable run and insert a rubber grommet. This grommet is required to prevent lead chaffing. Additional grommets may be required if the leads must pass through shields or guards in the engine compartment. 18 Figure 6 – Power Cable RPM 113 7674/10 Route the lead away from high heat sources in the engine compartment that may cause lead damage and introduce a fire hazard. In addition, the lead should not be routed near electrical noise sources such as electronic ignition modules or cruise control modules. 3. Secure the cable at several locations within the engine compartment to prevent possible damage to the cable. 4. Connect the BLACK lead to the vehicle chassis. Connect the lead as close to the radio as possible. DO NOT connect the BLACK lead to the “NEG” or “-“ battery post. Connect the RED lead to the positive (“POS” or “+”) battery post. See Figure 6. # The power source must have a minimum current supply capability of 13 amps. Connect To Ignition Sense The ignition sense line is used to enable or disable transmit or the Car Horn Alert option through the vehicle ignition switch. For a 19 detailed description on how to configure the Ignition Sense line, see the section Configure Ignition Sense Jumper on page 14. Regardless of how the ignition sense line is configured, the option cable must be wired as described below for the feature to work. Connect Pin 13 of the option cable to an ignition “ON” sense point (preferably an “Accessory” point in the vehicle fuse panel) that is switched on when the vehicle ignition switch is in the ACCESSORY and RUN positions. This lead should be connected so the vehicle fuse protection is used. See Figure 6. # The DB-25 male connector that connects to the option cable is user-supplied. The “Accessory” point should drop to ZERO volts when cranking the engine and return to +12 volts after the engine is started. If a point is chosen that drops to a voltage between zero and +12 volts, the radio may execute a power-up cycle several times during start up. It is recommended that the terminal be measured with a voltmeter to be sure it shuts off (goes to zero volts) during the cranking of the engine. Certain problems may be encountered when accessory equipment is connected to the ignition or accessory lines of the vehicle, where these lines may have large filter capacitors and a leakage path present. If the radio does not turn off within a reasonable amount of time after the ignition is turned off, first try a different accessory or ignition A+ pick up point in the vehicle. Many vehicles have more than one circuit that is switched by the ignition switch, and one may be available that does not have large filter capacitors or a leakage path present. If a different pickup point cannot be found, then add a 470-ohm, 1-watt resistor from the ignition A+ pick point…
