MOUNTING THE WIRING HARNESS | SBGUIDANCE | SMARTRAX MD
In addition, a number of guidelines have been
established for the assembly of both types of cable
harnesses:
Mount the relays fixed and in a dry, clean and
accessible spot (Figure 3).
The red wire is + (12V). The black wire is
(ground). Make sure that the first part of the
red wire (part in between battery and fuses)
cannot damage during operation.
If necessary the positive and negative wires, in
between the battery and the fuses, can be
shortened. Be sure to use cable sockets with
the correct size for proper connection.
If a ground switch is used, connect the wiring
harness behind the ground switch (not at the
battery side of the ground switch!).
If a main (12V) switch is used in the red wire,
connect the wiring harness behind the main
switch (not at the battery side of the main
switch!).
If no main switch is used, always connect the
wiring harness directly to the battery.
If the system is connected to a 24 Volt
machine, always use a 24V to 12V converter.
Never connect between the two batteries of a
24V machine!
Lead the terminal harness along with the GPS
and radio/GSM antenna cables through one
pillar of the cab.
Tie-wrap the wires so they are attached free
from vibration and friction.
Caution!:
It is Important to ensure that the wiring harness
is always connected to the battery AFTER
installing all wires and controllers!
Tip!
:
The pinning of the connectors in the wiring
harness is described in section 9.1.
