Installation 

Checks

1. Insert the fuses into the power leads.

2. TM8115 radios only.

Switch on the radio to confirm that it is operational 

(see “Turning the Radio On and Off” on page 11).

Caution: Do not transmit yet.

3. Connect an in-line power meter between the radio 

and the antenna and measure the forward and 

reflected power levels.

Less than 4% of the forward power should be 

reflected. If this is not achieved, check the installa-

tion, including the antenna length.

4. TM8115 radios only.

Once the reflected power levels are within tolerance, 

make a call to another party on the radio (see 

“Selecting a Channel” and “Making a Call”, on 

page 11).
