Installing the Smartlock Pro. The Smartlock Pro, a small
remote control box, allows turning on/off the receiver pre-
amp in the SGC antenna couplers and locking or resetting
coupler operation.
It can be mounted in a convenient location on or below the
dash. The simplest method is to make use of Velcro™ hook
and loop fastener strips, or double-sided adhesive tape, and
cut a square to match the box and dashboard surface. Route
its control cable beneath the dash, then to the rear of the
vehicle (or where the antenna coupler is installed) via the
door edge moldings or under the carpet.
Mounting the SG-500 Remote Control. Included with
the 500-watt installation kit (SGC Catalog No. 52-97), a
remote control box with cable enables switching the ampli-
fier DC power on and off (with LED indicator) and manual
selecting of the appropriate input filter for the band you
wish to operate on.
The amplifier on/off switch on the remote control box is
wired in series with the on/off switch in the amplifier. To
enable control from the box, leave the switch at the amplifi-
er set to “ON.”
Amplifier draws current when idling: When leaving the
vehicle, remember to turn off the amplifier: it draws a small
amount of current from the battery in its idle state. The red
LED on the remote control box provides an easy check of
whether power is applied to the Powercube.
If space is available, it may be convenient to mount the
remote control near the Smartlock box using the supplied
Velcro strips. Route the control cable to the rear of the vehi-
