Connect power
The Broadband Radar can operate on 12 or 24 V DC systems. The Broadband Radar requires +V
DC to be applied on the yellow power on wire in order to operate. This can be achieved in one
of three ways:
1. Common the red and yellow wire together, and connect to a fused switch. Radar will power on
in standby when power is applied. When switch is o , radar will draw no power
2. Use ignition or install a switch that will provide power to the yellow wire. (It is recommended to
use a 5 amp fuse or breaker). The radar will turn on when switch is activated. When the switch
is o , the radar will draw minimal power (~1mA)
3. Connect the yellow wire to external wake up of suitable display such as NSE, NSO, or NSS. The
radar will turn on when the display is turned on. The display must be set to ‘Master’ under
Power Control. When the display is o , the radar will draw minimal power (~1mA)
Before connecting power to the system:
• make sure the scanner has been installed and is secured.
• make sure the radar interconnection cable is connected to the radar.
• if using the Radar Interface Box make sure all connections have been made
to the display.
For systems using an RI10 radar interface box:
• Connect the red wire to power positive 12 or 24 V DC. Use a 5 amp fuse or breaker
• Connect the yellow wire to power source that will turn on the system (see above)
• Connect the black wire to power negative

For systems not using radar interface box (Lowrance 3G USA only):
• Connect the red wire to power positive 12 or 24 V DC. Use a 5 Amp fuse
• Connect the yellow wire to power source that will turn on the system (see above)
• Connect the black wire to power negative
