audio output which is not affected by the setting of the volume control. Use a mono or stereo cable that ends in a 3.5mm plug for the scanner. The recorder might have its own requirements as to the proper plug. Check the recorder's instructions to be sure. Connect the cable to an external or internal VOX control so that the recorder operates when audio is present. You can also connect the cable to the appropriate input jack on your PC so that with controlling software, you can record to your hard disk. In order for the function to operate, you must set the channel to record. You must also set the system's record option to either All Channel, which will record all channels regardless of any channel's setting, or Marked Channel which only lets recording occur if you have selected record for that channel. Which you choose will depend on various factors. VEHICLE INSTALLATION You can mount your scanner in your vehicle, using either the supplied bracket or the optional DIN-E sleeve. Mounting Using the Bracket With the bracket removed from the radio, use the holes in the bracket as a template to initially mark the location you plan to use in your vehicle. Be absolutely certain of what might be behind the mounting surface before making any holes, be it above, or below, or in front of your dash, armrest console, or other location. If you drill carelessly, expensive damage can result. If in doubt, consult your vehicle dealer's service department or a qualified professional installer. Important: AVOID AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT ZONES. Ignoring this installation concern may result in bodily harm and the inability of the airbag to perform properly. 1. Using appropriate screws or other hardware, secure the bracket. 2. Insert the scanner and insert the bracket knobs to lock the scanner in position. 21
