INSTALLATION
WIRELESS PTT RANGE
The Wireless PTT Button has a line-of-sight range of around 5 – 7 meters
depending on the installation. Range may be reduced slightly if the Interface
Module or the Wireless PTT Button is mounted close to metal surfaces. This
should not have any noticeable eect on most installations, however, if mounting
the remote unit in a bus, motor home or other similar sized vehicle please be
aware of the range performance when planning your installation.
WIRELESS PTT MOUNTING
STEERING WHEEL MOUNT
The steering wheel mount clamps onto the steering wheel in a position where the
XRS-PTT can be easily reached without distraction while driving. Place the XRS-PTT
into the top clamp, then screw the clamp mount cover. Place the top clamp on the
steering wheel at the preferred location and t the bottom clamp. Secure with the
two screws provided.Refer to Page 8 for details.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, DO NOT install the remote control on any
surface associated with your vehicle’s airbag.

PANEL/DASH MOUNT
The Wireless PTT Button can also be mounted onto a at surface using the
supplied dash mount kit. Mount the Wireless PTT Button in a location that is
easy to reach without distraction while driving. NOTE - installing onto a metallic
surface will reduce the signal range. Refer to Page 11 for details.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury, DO NOT install the remote control on any
surface associated with your vehicle’s airbag.
INSTALLING THE REMOTE MICROPHONE
The external remote microphone should be installed in a location close to your
driving position that will allow it to easily pick up your voice while driving.
Suggested areas are the driver’s side door pillar, sun visor or roof mounted centre
console. Once installed, run the cable to your interface module and plug it into the
3.5mm microphone socket.
Note: Installing the external remote microphone is optional. The radio can be
congured to use the original smart microphone (MC66x) with the Wireless
PTT Button for hands-free communications if preferred. See ‘RADIO MENU
OPTIONS’.
