Going Online with the ECU
1.
Plug the supplied USB-C cable into the USB-C
Port on the front of the NEXUS R5.
2.
The USB-C connection will power the ECU in a
low power mode.
This mode allows the user to connect to NSP for
map configuration and data-log extraction without
powering the ECU completely. ECU inputs and
outputs are disabled in low power mode.
Setting up Wi-Fi communications
Wi-Fi communications can be enabled using NSP
in the Wi-Fi Module Settings.
When disabled, the module is held in an OFF state
and is completely inactive.
To set up your Wi-Fi connection follow these steps:
1.
Open NSP and connect to your NEXUS R5 via
the supplied USB-C cable.
2. Click on Connections in the feature tree and
enable the Wi-Fi module setting.
3.
Under Connections click on Wi-Fi to setup your
SSID and password. Your SSID must be at least 1
character and your password must be at least 8
characters.
3.
NSP will recognise the ECU automatically.
4.
Click File/Open to choose your base map.
NOTE: The ECU must be powered on main power
for Wi-Fi communication. Up to two computers
may be connected to an ECU over Wi-Fi and one
over USB-C at any one time.
Separate the backshell and seal from the Surlok
connector body and slide them onto the cable to
be crimped. Strip 20mm (3/4”) of sheathing from
your 1AWG cable.
Insert your exposed cable into the Surlok
connector ferrule.
Crimp ferrule and cable together using the 50mm
die. Flip cable over to ensure ferrule is crimped
completely.
Pull the seal over the ferrule then pull the
backshell, tightening
it onto the Surlok
connector head.
4. Press Apply.
5.
With the ECU powered up on main power go to
your computer’s Network settings and connect to
your NEXUS R5 by selecting your chosen SSID and
typing in your password.
