between them and any cabling for the
SpreadSmart Rx
TM
. Take particular care with
SpreadSmart Rx
TM
installations that have dash mounted LCD’s.
Installing the control unit
The control unit should be mounted in a position where the display is easily seen (often on the
dash board) and the operator can easily reach the controls of the unit. It should not, however, be
mounted in a position such that it interferes with the drivers line of sight of the roadway.
Connecting the cabling
Connections for Power (connect to ignition hot source), 5/12v switch for sensors, Aux for WiFi
bridge power, Hydraulics, Anti-Ice booms, Sensors and speedo/remote blast/ pass switches.
Connections: Drive by Data, Temp/GPS, LCD display, Bus, & PC.
STEP 2 – Power Verification
At this stage, the system can be powered up to verify electrical connections, but will not operate
the hydraulics until the Set up Wizard is complete.
Turn on the power to the truck. The unit should start up, lighting the display, displaying the
SpreadSmart Rx
TM
logo, and will display the Set-Up Wizard screen.
Multiple Uses of touch screen buttons (=key pad switches):
To keep the operator interface easy to use, the
SpreadSmart Rx
TM
makes multiple uses
of the buttons on the touch screen. The label on the touch screen indicates the use of the button
during normal operation. Included throughout this manual are multiple uses of some of the
buttons for programming and set up of the system. In all cases, the buttons are referred to by the
name that appears next to them on the touch screen.
