DC Power Cable Installation
Installation Planning
The 3 meters (10 feet) DC power cable shipped with the terminal should be long enough to be
installed in most vehicles. Take the following precautions before you begin:
1.
Whenever possible, avoid routing the cable above the catalytic converter.
2.
Make sure that the power cable never rests on sharp edges.
3.
Use grommets whenever a cable has to pass through a hole in a metal panel.
The following table lists power cables available for this terminal:
* For more information refer to section “Ignition Sense Cable”. The Ignition Sense Cable allows the
terminal to be turned on and off by the vehicle ignition switch.
This terminal must be operated only in negative ground
electrical systems. Operating the terminal on a positive
ground system will cause the cable fuse to short-circuit.
Check the vehicle ground polarity before you begin the
installation.
