Objectives: 1) Mounting KMB-36 bracket for the RF Deck behind Passenger's seat 2) Establish procedure for the 12VDC power connection wiring of the KNG M150R mobile radio RF Deck and Remote Control Head, defining wiring configuration step-by-step for "Ignition Sense" 3) Installation of Remote-Control Head RCH. 4.) Install BKRA-I-CF 5.) Connect to Intercom
1) KMB-36 Mounting Bracket:
When new build from contractor: A solid flat surface at the rear of the Driver seat for mounting the KMB-36 vertical with the latches facing up. This is a request for vendor to fabricate a metallic mounting surface and install.
The M150R RF deck is to be installed into a Kenwood KMB-36 bracket. The KMB-36 is to be located on a flat metal bracket installed behind the Driver's seat to provide easy access to remove the RF Deck. The orientation is vertical so that the Mic port & USB port are facing up. A minimum of 10 inch service loop for all cables from underneath.
When replacing a Kenwood mobile radio with the new KNG Ml 50R, Remove the RF deck from the existing KMB-36 mounting bracket, KCH-11 Remote Control Head with face plate, KSA-I , remote cable & power cable. EXCEPTION: DO NOT discard the KLF- 2 Noise Filter, KMB-S mounting tray, and KES-5 speaker. These items are suitable to be reused with the KNG M150R.The external speaker: Installer can reuse but the wiring must be connected to the new RCH mounted in the dash. Audio out of the RF Deck doesn't have volume control - isn't used. The existing KMB-36 mounting bracket is to be fitted with the BK KAA0631 side rail adapter kit that was designed to adapt the BK M150 mobile radio to the KMB-36. Remove the side rails from the Kenwood radio and use diagram on next page to assemble to new KNG Ml 50 mobile radio.
1) Continued KMB-36 Mounting bracket The KAA0631 adapter slide fastens to the slide rail in the sides of RF Deck —BK Technologies P/N Bracket, Mounting - Channel, 1400-31014-800 shown below:
This is a of the RF Deck and tie slide rails that come with it. These side rails can fall out and might be in the box the radio was shipped in. They need to slide easily and can be adjusted by the tang frat is on the right side of slide.
As shown on next page, the installation instructions from BK Technologies that come with the KAA0631 adapter kit.
These instructions demonstrate the process of first attaching the adapter bars to the slide rails of RF Deck. Orientation is critical. Please pay attention to detail as the positioning is to be exact or the KMB-36 clasps will not function property.
The orientation of the bars will only work in one way, please look at drawing and install correctly.

Both the Satellite and Cell antenna will require a shield, example of Orbcomm shield given below, Figure 2. Both shields shall be powder coated white. Blueprints of Sat and Cell shields can be found on pages 21 and 22.
Figure 1.
Figure 2.
Antenna cables:
The antenna cables for AVL will be: the Orbcomm satellite cable, Cellular antenna cables and one VHF coax. These cables will be routed down the appropriate passage on the crew compartment and routed into the cab amidst the other cables and harness.
Termination of AVL cables are to end behind the passenger seat, excess cable will be wrapped up, Figure 3.
Figure 3.
Power and Ground:
8-gauge wire will be used for both power and ground on the AVL system, these can be sourced at the center console. A Maxi fuse holder must be installed at the power source, do not place a fuse in the holder. Note: Power shall be obtained on a constant hot (Battery switched) circuit, and not an ignition circuit. Termination of Power and Ground will be identical to the AVL cables, ensure a minimum of 4 feet of cable extends beyond the center console, Figure 3.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Orbcomm satellite identification numbers must be recorded prior to installation on the vehicle. Once you open the Orbcomm box you will find two data label stickers and two protective clear stickers. Remove one data sticker and place on the top side of the satellite. Ensure the numbers are correct and cover with a protective clear sticker.
Additionally, the box must remain with the vehicle for a second means of ID records. It is imperative for the numbers to be recorded as stated above to ensure product connectivity to the specific antenna installed. The photos below are in reference to this statement.
