 2. Initial Installation
2.1 Mobile Installation
To install the transceiver, select a safe, convenient location inside your vehicle that minimizes danger to
your passengers and yourself while the vehicle is in motion. Consider installing the unit at an appropriate
position so that knees or legs will not strike it during sudden braking of your vehicle. Try to pick a well
ventilated location that is shielded from direct sunlight.
1.Install the mounting bracket in the vehicle using the supplied selftapping screws (2pcs)
and flat washers (2pcs)

Car body

Washer (M5)
Tapping screw
(M5x20mm)

Mounting bracket

2.Position the transceiver, then insert and tighten the supplied hexagon SEMS screws.
♦♦Double check that all screws are tightened to prevent vehicle vibration from loosening the bracket or
transceiver.

2.2 DC Power Cable Connection

»»Locate the power input connector as close to the transceiver as possible.

3.2.1 Mobile Operation

The vehicle battery must have a nominal rating of 12V. Never connect the transceiver to a 24V battery.
Be sure to use a 12V vehicle battery that has sufficient current capacity. If the current to the transceiver
is insufficient, the display may darken during transmission, or transmitting output power may drop
excessively.

Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio 2

 2. Initial Installation
1.Route the DC power cable supplied with the transceiver directly to the vehicle's battery terminals using
the shortest path from the transceiver.
♦♦We recommend you do not use the cigarette lighter socket as some cigarette lighter sockets
introduce an unacceptable voltage drop.
♦♦The entire length of the cable must be dressed so it is isolated from heat, moisture, and the engine
secondary (high voltage) ignition system/ cables.
2. After installing cable, in order to avoid the risk of damp, please use heat-resistant tap to tie together
with fuse box. Don't forget to reinforce whole cable.
3.In order to avoid the risk of short circuit, please cut down connection with negative (-) of battery, then
connect with radio.
4.Confirm the correct polarity of the connections, then attach the power cable to the battery terminals;
red connects to the positive (+) terminal and black connects to the negative (-) terminal.
♦♦Use the full length of the cable without cutting off excess even if the cable is longer than required. In
particular, never remove the fuse holders from the cable.
5. Reconnect any wiring removed from the negative terminal.

6. Connect the DC power cable to the transceiver's power supply connector.

♦♦Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab clicks.

3.2.2 Fixed Station Operation

In order to use this transceiver for fixed station operation, you will need a separate 13.8V DC power
supply (not included), power supply as optional accessories. Please contact local dealer to require.
The recommended current capacity of your power supply is 15A.
1.Connect the DC power cable to the regulated DC power supply and ensure that the polarities are
correct. (Red: positive, Black: negative).
♦♦Do not directly connect the transceiver to an AC outlet.
♦♦Use the supplied DC power cable to connect the transceiver to a regulated power supply.
♦♦Do not substitute a cable with smaller gauge wires.

2.Connect the transceiver's DC power connector to the connector on the DC power cable.
♦♦Press the connectors firmly together until the locking tab clicks.
»»Before connecting the DC power to the transceiver, be sure to switch the transceiver and the DC
power supply OFF.
»»Do not plug the DC power supply into an AC outlet until you make all connections.
3.The fixed station will work as a base station,or a small repeater when the cross-band repeater function
is on.

3.2.3 Replacing Fuses

If the fuse blows, determine the cause, then correct the problem. After the problem is resolved, replace
the fuse. If newly installed fuses continue to blow, disconnect the power cable and contact your
authorized dealer or an authorized servicecenter for assistance.

Only use fuses of the specified type and rating, otherwise the transceiver could be damaged.

»»If you use the transceiver for a long period when the vehicle battery is not fully charged, or when
the engine is OFF, the battery may become discharged, and will not have sufficient reserves to
start the vehicle. Avoid using the transceiver in these conditions.

Digital DMR and Analog UHF/VHF Two Way Radio 4

 2. Initial Installation
3.3 Antenna Connection
Before operating, install an efficient, well-tuned antenna. The success of your installation will depend
largely on the type of antenna and its correct installation. The transceiver can give excellent results if
the antenna system and its installation are given careful attention.
Use a 50Ω impedance antenna and low-loss coaxial feed-line that has a characteristic impedance of
50Ω, to match the transceiver input impedance. Coupling the antenna to the transceiver via feed-lines
having an impedance other than 50Ω reduces the efficiency of the antenna system and can cause
interference to nearby broadcast television receivers, radio receivers, and other electronic equipment.

»»Transmitting without first connecting an antenna or other matched load may damage the
transceiver. Always connect the antenna to the transceiver before transmitting.
»»All fixed stations should be equipped with a lightning arrester to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and transceiver damage.

The possible locations of antenna on a car are shown as following:

3.4 Accessories Connections

3.4.1 External Speaker
If you plan to use an external speaker, choose a speaker with an impedance of 8Ω. The external
speaker jack accepts a 3.5mm (1/8") mono (2-conductor) plug.

SP-01

»»External speaker adopt double port BTL, please care about the connecting way. The speaker
can not connect with the ground, otherwise the speaker will be damaged. The wrong connecting
method as shown in the following diagram.

 SAFETY
The Anytone AT-D578UV DMR mobile transceiver has been carefully designed to provide you with years
of safe, reliable operation. As with all electrical equipment, however, there are a few basic precautions
you should take to avoid hurting yourself or damaging the radio:
• Read the instructions in this handbook carefully. Be sure to save it for
future reference.
• Read and follow all warning and instruction labels on the radio and
owner’s manual.
• Be sure the “PTT” key is not pressed when you do not need to transmit.
• Do not operate the radio near unshielded electrical blasting caps or in an
explosive atmosphere.
• Respect the environment conditions. The radio is designed to be used in heavy environments, however
avoid exposing it to extremely hot or cold temperature (out of the range between –20°C to +60°C). Do
not expose the transceiver to excessive vibrations as well as dusty or rainy locations.
• Never try to disassemble or service the radio by yourself (aside from the routine maintenance
described in this handbook). It may cause damage to the radio transceiver and void your warranty
requiring extensive repair work. Always contact your local dealer for assistance.
• Use only authorized accessories. Using non Anytone radio brand accessories may seriously damage
your handheld transceiver and void your warranty.
• Do not spill liquid of any kind into your radio. If the transceiver gets wet,
immediately dry it by a soft and clean cloth.
• Switch the radio off before you clean it.
• Be certain that your power source matches the rating listed for the supplied power cord. If you are not
sure, check with your authorized Anytone dealer.
