3. 1 Rather then inserting the Grey wire from the Merlin AVL into pin 15 of the Kenwood Connector Insert the Grey wire from the Merlin AVL into pin 1 of the Kenwood Connector 14 Modifications To Kenwood TK x80 Base Radio When you are installing both a 2016 Base Modem and the interface to the PC for FleetSync Data some modifications have to be made to get all proper signals to the KCT 19 connector You will have to perform the following modification to the KCT 19 Radio to connect all required signals to the KCT 19 output 1 Remove the Red wire from pin 2 of CN1 and solder this wire to pin 3 of CN2 in the TK x80 radio 2 Be sure to install the E lead of the KCT 19 into CN 4 of the TK x80 radio Once the above modifications are complete you will have all necessary signals available for both the 2016 Base Modem Note With this modification instead of inserting the Grey wire from the Merlin AVL into pin 15 of the Kenwood Connector Insert the Grey wire from the Merlin AVL into pin 1 of the Kenwood Connector From this point you will be feeding your PC with two separate serial data signals one from the 2016 base modem and one from the PC output of the TK x80 radio providing the FleetSync data to the PC 15
4. the same radio some modifications have to be made to get all proper signals to the KCT 19 connector When you are connecting a KDS 100 without a Merlin AVL unit to a radio you normally use a KCT 34 option connector In this case you will be using a KCT 19 option connector kit You will have to perform the following modifications to the KCT 19 Radio to connect all required signals to the KCT 19 output 1 Remove the Red wire from pin 2 of CN1 and solder this wire to pin 3 of CN2 in the TK x80 radio 2 Remove the Orange wire from pin 3 of CN1 and solder this wire to pin 2 of CN2 in the TK x80 radio 3 Be sure to install the E lead of the KCT 19 into CN 4 of the TK x80 radio Once the above modifications are complete you will have all necessary signals available for both the KDS 100 and the Merlin AVL at the KCT 19 15 pin connector From this point you will need to install the 7525 10 1044 Y cable to split the necessary signals between the KDS 100 and the Merlin AVL Plug the 7525 10 1044 Y cable into the KCT 19 from the radio KDS 100 Modifications The KDS 100 connects to the KDS 100 side of this 7525 10 1044 Y cable Your KDS 100 will need to be programmed for PC mode Merlin AVL Modifications The Merlin connects to the 2017 Merlin side of the 7525 10 1044 Y cable No changes are made to the interface of the Merlin AVL to the KCT 19 vs the interface of a Merlin AVL to a 7525 10 1044 Y cable
