Ok Basic Help needed... here..

Astro Spectra, trunk mount w/ W9 Head.
Reference Picture..
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 1947478954

Front of 'radio' has 2) 25 pin ports,
1 "Control Unit" and 1 Blank..
Where does W9 head go ? Does it matter?

Whats up with the tiny looking Mic port above "control unit" port?

15pin on rear.. got it.. Programming..etc..

Would appreciate a crash course.. since the service man. still on the way !
thanks ! Happy New Year

John,

Control head goes to the connector labeled "Control Unit", the connector on the left of the trunk unit as you look at it. The connector on the right is for a VRS unit, or a Siren/PA unit. Should have a "dust cover" on it.

The mic-connector looking thing is for programming DES if the radio is so equipped.

Hope this helps.

Jack..
Sweeet !
Hmm now ok.. which leads me to another ?....

Why would W9 head plugged into Control Unit Port produce an Fail 01/90 Code? (Flickers/ No 'Self Test')

Seems to work ok in the "unlabled" Port... (Powers up, Self Test-On)

Ideas?
