Plug the Deutsch 4-pin DTM connector on the AQ1 Data Logger harness into the 
mating connector on othe

r AEMnet compatible devices.  See “Using the AQ1 Data 

Logger

” for more information on configuring the AEMnet. 

 

INPUT SIGNALS 
 
Analog 1-4

 are 0-5V analog inputs with optional pull-up resistor for RTD/Thermistor-

style sensor.  Examples: AEM gauges, MAP/pressure sensors, TPS/APP/shock 
travel/load cell sensors, analog MAF sensors, any 2 wire RTD or thermistor style temp 
sensor.  

See “Using the AQ1 Data Logger” for more information on configuring Inputs 1-

4.  The corresponding wires in the harness for Analog 1-4 are Yellow and are labeled 
INPUT 1, INPUT 2, INPUT 3 and, INPUT 4. 
 

Analog/Frequency 5-8 

are analog inputs for that can optionally measure frequency (0-

5 V or 0-16 V)  Examples: RPM, vehicle speed, frequency based MAF, injector duty 
cycle, boost control solenoid, flow sensor, hall sensor, any 3 wire pressure sensor.  See 
“Using the AQ1 Data Logger” for more information on configuring Inputs 5-8.  The 
corresponding wires in the harness for Analog/Frequency 5-8 are Yellow and are 
labeled INPUT 5, INPUT 6, INPUT 7, and INPUT 8. 
 
Connection diagrams are shown below for some of the more common sensors/signals 
to be used with Inputs 1-4 and Inputs 5-8.  See Figure 2.
