Step 1-A: Drill Cable Entry
Hole Into Your Vehicle
Identify a location for NMO Outside Antenna on the
top of your vehicle that is:
 Near the center of the roof
 At least 12 inches away from any other antennas
 At least 6 inches away from any windows
(for best performance install on top of vehicle)
Do a ‘soft install’ before drilling the hole for the
cable entry.
 Set up the system by routing the cable through
an open door or window, completing the setup
instructions, verifying the system works as desired,
and then drilling the hole.

Before connecting the power supply, disconnect the vehicle battery
leads to avoid any electrical shocks during installation.
Locate a place where cables are already running through the firewall
(rear wall of engine bay) to the inside of the cabin.
Locate the same firewall hole from inside of the vehicle cabin.
Route the power cables of the power supply from the inside of the
vehicle cabin out through firewall hole.
Note: The cables must be routed inside to outside since the power
supply brick won’t fit through the firewall holes. The power supply
brick should remain inside the vehicle cabin.
Connect the positive lead of the power supply (lead with red tape)
to the disconnected positive (+) lead of the battery (not the positive
terminal on the battery itself).
Connect the negative lead of the power supply (lead without tape)
to the disconnected negative (-) lead of the battery (not the negative
terminal on the battery itself).
Connect the positive (+) lead back to the vehicle battery.
Connect the negative (-) lead back to the vehicle battery.
Use steps below as a draft/template of the general install of
the power supply.

NOTE: Having the power supply directly connected to the battery may
drain the battery’s life. Please review the vehicle’s owner’s manual for more
information. Adding a “fuse tap” may be another solution. A “fuse tap” is an
electrical part that functions as a power splitter and is meant to be installed
in the car’s fuse box, making the amp shut o when the vehicle’s ignition
switch is turned o.
