Ensure that CCpilot V1000/V1200 is mounted to a smooth, flat surface. Fastening the unit to
an uneven surface may stress the enclosure, damage the outer flange, or possibly even flex
the circuit board inside, leading to a premature failure.
4.2.
Connecting to power supply
This chapter describes how the CCpilot V1000/V1200 is preferably connected to the power
supply of the equipment it is installed in. The principle is the same for vehicular and stationary
installations.
Carefully read through the following sub-chapters. They are critical for designing and adapting
the electrical system of the equipment in which the CCpilot V1000/V1200 is installed.
Connector pinouts are found in chapter 7.
4.2.1.
Wire gauge
Wire gauge for the power supply should be dimensioned with respect to the total load current,
the cable length required, and the worst-case voltage drop allowed, considering the minimum
operational voltage of the device.
•
Current consumption of the CCpilot V1000/V1200 device is found in chapter 8.1.
•
The wire gauge for the power supply is recommended to be at least 0.75 mm

/AWG 18 for
“normal” loads.
