Installing Your Scanner
You can mount your triple trunking scanner in your vehicle or use it
as a base station.
Setting Up a Mobile Base
You can place your scanner on a desk, shelf, or table to use it as a
base station. Because the speaker is on the bottom of the scanner,
you can use the mounting bracket to elevate your scanner off the
surface for better sound.
To use the scanner on a flat surface:
1. Attach the three protective rubber feet to the mounting
bracket.
2. Remove the paper backing from each rubber washer and stick
one inside of each bracket’s ear, aligning the washer’s hole with
the bracket’s hole.
3. Slide the scanner into the
bracket, aligning the scanner’s
side holes with the holes in
the bracket, then screw the
mounting knobs into the
scanner.
Bracket Mounting
You can mount your scanner under or on top of your vheicle’s
dashboard using the mounting bracket.
CAUTION: AVOID AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ZONES. Mounting in
deployment zones can prevent the airbag from performing properly
and may result in injury.
1. Use the supplied mounting bracket as a template to mark
positions for the two mounting screws.
2. At the marked positions, drill holes slightly smaller than the
screws.
Note: When drilling holes, avoid
obstructions behind the mounting
surface.
3. Attach the mounting bracket to
your vehicle’s surface using the
supplied screws and lockwashers.
Dashboard Installation
If you are unsure how to install your scanner in your vehicle, consult
your automobile manufacturer, dealer, or a qualified installer.
Note: To mount in your dashboard, you must connect an
external antenna and speaker.
1. Before installing, confirm your scanner fits in the desired
mounting area and you have all the necessary materials. Your
scanner requires a 2 × 7

facing out.
4. Push out the top and
bottom tabs to hold the
sleeve firmly in place.

the sleeve until it locks
