Connecting Power to the Unit
This instruction address vehicle installations but the principle is the same also for other types of
installations. See also the description of the pin outs for the Power Supply Connector under the
section External interface description.
Carefully follow the connection instructions below. Make sure that all contacts are angled
correctly and that they do not have to be forced, but lock gently and pliant.
GND (pin 3 and 4) is connected to the vehicle’s ground.
Battery (pin 1 and 2), i.e. the computer’s power supply, should be connected directly to the
vehicle’s battery through 10 A fuses (F1). Wire gauges shall be dimensioned with respect
to cable length, supply voltage etc. Minimum cable area is 2x1 mm2 (2xAWG 18).
The ON/OFF (pin 5), i.e. the computer’s on/off signal is connected via the vehicles turnkey
signal or an external on/off switch (S1). If the vehicle has a main power switch (S1) the
computer shall be connected after it, as in the illustration below. The maximum allowed
input current for the on/off signal is 2.5 mA. The fuse F2 fuse rating and wire gauge shall
be dimensioned for the total switch current.
