Remote Antenna Mounting Instruction
1. Attach and secure the mounting plate to the highest point on the safety cage, following these precautions:
l The plate must be mounted so the antenna is not damaged while the vehicle or any of its parts are
moving.
l The mounting plate must be parallel to the floor.
l If the VX6 requires two antennas, they must be mounted at least 12 inches (304.8mm) apart.
2. Attach the female connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna connector on the vehicle mounted VX6.
3. Insert the male connector on the coaxial cable though the hole in the mounting plate.
4. Secure the connector to the mounting plate with the washer and hex nut.
5. Use cable ties to secure the coaxial cable to the vehicle as necessary. Make sure the cable is routed so it is not
damaged by any moving parts of the vehicle.
6. Attach the antenna to the male connector on the end of the coaxial cable. The antenna must be mounted in a vertical
position.
7. If the VX6 is using dual antennas (diversity option), repeat these steps for the second antenna.
