4 Hailer Horn
Wire Color Function Details
White (+) Connect to hailer speaker +
Shield (-) Shield Connect to hailer speaker -
IMPORTANT: Do not short these 2 wires. Install the hailer horn in a forward-facing location
on the boat because the hailer horn will transmit the FOG horn sounds and will ‘listen back’
when not transmitting.
Note: We recommend you use a hailer horn of 4 Ohms to obtain maximum 22 W audio
output power.
5 FM Antenna Jack
Plug in the FM antenna, as shown. Fully stretch out the 70” (1.8 m) long-wire FM antenna in a
vertical position for best reception, and tie securely. Be sure to keep the FM antenna separate
from other cable wires in the boat.
NOTE: If your location is quite far from local FM radio stations, it is recommended a standard
75 OHM FM vertical antenna be used instead of the supplied long wire antenna.
Use the supplied FM antenna adapter to connect to a standard automotive type FM antenna.
