Installation
-3-
During the installation your vehicle
must be in neutral and the ignition
switched OFF.
Wiring diagram:
Below is a wiring diagram for the PDC200
showing the necessary connections. Please
follow the instructions step by step in order
to install your Reversing Sensors.
Position of the sensors
Before installation first determine the final
•
position for the sensors.
Take care that the surface is clean, even
•
and free from dirt, grease, polish etc.
Attach the mounting tape to the rear
•
of sensor and press the sensor on the
desired locations.
Locate a flat area at the rear of the vehicle.
•
Sensors should be fitted between 55cm-
70cm from the ground. If fitted higher
than 70cm the sensors may not detect
low objects. If lower than 55cm the signal
may reflect from the ground and produce a
false reading.
The sensors should be fitted 90cm apart
•
from each other (at the same height).
Mount the sensors horizontally for the best
•
reflective signal.
Wiring the sensor
Having chosen a location for the sensors,
you must now decide on a route for running
the wiring into your vehicle. You will need to
attach the wires to the main unit (see below).
Connecting the wiring to the main
unit of the PDC200
You now need to connect the red and
•
black power cables to your vehicles
reversing light wires.
The red power cable should be connected
•
to the positive reversing light wire (this
is the wire that becomes live when you
select the reverse gear), using the snap-on
connector provided.
Now connect the black power cable to the
•
ground wire from the reversing light, again
using the snap-on connector provided.
