User manual WHISTLER CRUISADER INSTALLATION

[. . . ] All references to antenna in this manual will be the bubble area. Installation of Laser-Radar Antenna The reflector bracket serves two purposes; (1) to allow vertical mounting of the antenna (see page 10 for vertical install instructions) and (2); when mounted in reverse (angled portion towards the wires. ) allow the receiver to be installed on any horizontal area. (1) Antenna 4x8 mm SEMS (2) Reflector Dual Lock Fastener Dual Lock Fastener Reflector 4x8 mm SEMS Antenna Note: Use of hardware that is not supplied or DRILLING into the case will cause damage to the receiver and void the warranty. Antenna Mounting Brackets There are 3 ways in which to mount the laser-radar antenna; dual lock fastener, reflector bracket and universal brackets (similar to old car radio ground straps). These mounting accessories can be used on their own or in combination to provide the best mounting solution for the vehicle. Do not drill into the receiver housing! (3) The heavy duty double lock fastener provides easy installation with the option of easy removal without tools. [. . . ] PWR - 12 Volt Connection AUX - LED, Tone Voice Module Output LAS - Laser Module Input ANT - Laser-Radar Receiver Input Mounted in this position, radar signals are reflected into the ANTENNA window; however, the unit will not be able to receive laser signals. Mounting the Temperature Probe Find a location that is far enough away from the engine and radiator heat but still in the airflow for the vehicle. Mounting the Probe too close to these heat areas will give a false high temperature. · Attach the mountable tie wrap (supplied) to the Temperature Probe as shown. · Mark location for Probe, then drill a hole using a 7/64" drill bit. Attach Probe with tie wrap in the correct orientation using the #6 x 3/4 screw. Note: Mount the Probe so that there is space between the Mountable Probe and the mounting area. Tie Wrap Do not mount Probe directly to metal area. Temperature Probe Mounting Location Probe Cable Label on back of Control Panel Indicates what each wire goes to. 11 12 Cruisader Installation. qxd 5/24/05 9:00 PM Page 15 Installation of Control Panel Installation of the Control Panel The installation package provides at least three ways to mount the control panel to the vehicle. Using the "V" bracket alone will allow attachment to an existing bolt on the vehicle. Another is using the handlebar clamp in conjunction with the "V". The handle bar bracket is designed to be used on any 1 inch to 1 1/4" handlebar tubing. The clamp is shipped with an inner and outer clamp V Bracket together. Remove the bolt to separate the two sizes of clamps. The inner bracket is used for the smaller Handle Bar diameter bars, the larger Bracket size for the 1 1/4" bars. The next way is using the dog bone bracket instead of the "V" bracket. This bracket allows more flexibility in providing the correct viewing angle for the display. Tip: Since the control panel dimensions are the same as a standard 2 1/16" automotive gauges, the aftermarket offers many enclosures that can customize the installation. General Laser Information Mount the laser antenna with the lens array facing forward down the road. This approach offers the greatest protection, since you will most often be traveling into a laser signal, rather that away from it when laser speed enforcement is encountered. [. . . ] Simply drill a 5/16 hole into a removable panel and insert the LED's wiring into the hole and press gently the LED housing until a flush fit. (see drawing) The LED could also be tie wrapped to the handle bars or brake/clutch cables for an easy attachment. Bolt to License Plate Dog Bone Bracket Note: Do Not plug LED into the AUX Output with the control panel turned on. Carefully route the cable to the control panel and plug into the AUX out connector. 15 16 Cruisader Installation. qxd 5/24/05 9:00 PM Page 19 Installation of Console 2.
