5 INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
Installation and service should only be carried out by suitably
qualified service personnel.
Local working practices and regulations for wiring and installations must be adhered to at all times.
5.1 Power Requirements
The equipment is powered from an external DC supply of 9.6V to 32V. The DC supply must be
capable of providing a maximum VA of 9.6W, for example 1A @ 9.6V or 0.3A @ 32V.
External power is connected via the 12-way connector (see Section 10 for connector details and pin
connections)
When installing the SAT-202, adequate circuit protection must be provided as required by local
regulations.
IMPORTANT:
If connecting to an external battery, the SAT-202 requires an
external fast acting fuse connected in series with the +ve supply at the battery
end of the cable.

IMPORTANT:
If an external AC/DC Adaptor is used to power the equipment, it
must meet the requirements of EN 60950-1. The output of the Adaptor must also
meet the SELV limits of EN 60950-1.
5.2 Cable
It is recommended that cable routing is planned and operation tested before committing to a
permanent installation. The maximum cable diameter must not exceed 7mm.
The SAT-202 is supplied without cable or mating connector as standard. The
SAT-202C-020 and SAT-202E-020-MF terminate on an IMC connector. Suitable cables
and/or connectors can be purchased separately from your equipment supplier or authorised
dealer. See Section 10 for connector and pin out details.
When routing the cable avoid sharp edges and pinches.
Be aware of the minimum static bend radius of the cable.
Mechanical pressure on the cable may cause loss of functionality or even a short circuit and
subsequent damage to the terminal.
Use only shielded cables for connecting to peripherals. Using shielded cables ensures that
the appropriate EMC classifications are maintained.
