Connecting the iC5000 CI to the Target
Grounding wire
Always start by connecting the BlueBox to the Target with the Grounding wire. Refer to
www.isystem.com/groundingwire 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, leading to the possible destruction of electronic components
within the BlueBox hardware, the Target or both.
Power Supply
The BlueBox 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 BlueBox 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. Refer to the Accessories 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.
When powering on the system, switch the BlueBox unit on before powering on the
Target. When powering down the system, power off the target before powering off the
BlueBox unit!
FBridge port is not Ethernet port!
Use
only original iSYSTEM accessories for powering and connecting with the BlueBox
unit. Consult with iSYSTEM before attempting to use any other accessory.
