GENERAL WIRING INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
:
(CONTINUED)
1.
Before attaching the large battery cables to the KSM posts, remember to slide
included protective boots onto the cables.
The first cable shall be connected to the
positive
+
terminal of the KSM and then connected to the positive
+
terminal of the
battery.
2.
Slide included protective boot onto the negative
-
cable.
This second cable shall be
connected to the negative
-
clamp or terminal of the battery and then connected to
the negative
-
terminal of the KSM module.
3.
As based on page 10 & 13 create and wire the harnesses to the Deutsch connector.
The KSM Deutsch connector has been provided with mating connector that has
pigtail wire leads tagged and identified in order to facilitate installation.
4.
For the PLC input, pin four (4) of the wire interface connector, you must find a 5-
amp power source from the vehicle or vessel, “key-on” ignition source that is live
positive
+
only
when the ignition switch is on, and is capable of delivering up to 5
amps. This can often be sourced at the engine. Install a 5-amp fuse in this circuit
within seven [7] inches of the power source. Use care not to disturb or compromise
the engine’s own wiring harness or connections.
5.
Wire the DPST switch and find and wire the appropriate PLC input (pin 4) as based
and depicted on the diagram & schematic pages 10 & 13. You will not be connecting
any wiring to the J1939 Connector.
The J1939 CAN-Bus is used for KBI Factory
programming only. Contact KBI for details.
6.
Apply provided protective grease on KSM positive
+
and negative
-
terminals.
7.
Attach provided protective boots to terminals on KSM module.
8.
If you wish to monitor the KSM state of charge, you can order and install the KBI
Voltmeter wire-harness and connector accessory kit, KBI part number 302809. See
Appendix B. The meter you use may be digital or analogue; however, it
must
be
activated only with a momentary on switch or button. Permanently wiring a
voltmeter to the KSM will accelerate the depletion of its charge
9.
Wiring is complete and the unit is now ready to operate.
CAUTION
After the installation and wiring are complete, whenever the DPST
switch is depressed the KSM positive
+
and negative
-
terminals
will be live. Do not short-circuit the terminals.
