• Keep cables away from corrosive chemicals.
• Keep the cables away from rotating machinery.
• Do not bend excessively or crimp the cables.
• Avoid placing tension on the cables.
• Remove unwanted slack from the extension cable at the receiver end.

Follow these steps to route cable into the cab:
1. Find a place on the right side or bottom of the cab to route cable into cab (the point of entry is up to
you).
Note: The cable can be routed through windows or doors but make sure that there will be no damage
to the cable.
2.Attach the GPS cable from the antenna to Port 1 of the PF3000, Port 1 on the YM 2000, or the GPS
port on the InSight, EDGE or
Ag Leader® INTEGRA display.
• If you are attaching the reciever to a PF Advantage or PF 3000 Pro without GPS, attach the GPS
cable to AUX. 1 Port.
• If you are connecting your reciever to an alternative logging or mapping device (i.e. handheld or
laptop computer), refer to your Operator's Manual for that particular unit for correct cable
connection.
