Connecting the iC6000 to the Target
Grounding wire
Always start by connecting the iC6000 to the target hardware with the enclosed grounding
wire. Refer to winIDEA Help
for more information.
If the grounding wire is not connected, the ground potential difference between the
BlueBox hardware and the target can exceed well over 1000V even before any of the
devices are powered up. This voltage difference is discharged over the BlueBox
hardware and the target system, leading to the possible destruction of electronic
components within the BlueBox hardware, the target or both.
Power Supply
The iC6000 unit accepts a wide input voltage range from 10V to 24V DC, thus enabling the
BlueBox hardware to work also with a 12V or 24V vehicle battery.
The necessary power supply (Part No. IC30000-PS) is delivered with the iC5700 unit. The
power supply comes with the EU (type F power plug), USA (type B power plug), India (type D
power plug) or China (type I power plug) power cord depending on the delivery address. mRefer
to the
chapter for a spare power cord when required.
An optional 12V power supply adapter suitable for use in a vehicle can be ordered using the
ordering code IC30000-PS-CAR12V.
