Overview
The purpose of this document is to provide the installer with instructions on how to install
the TM450. Adding TBT (CTO or MDT) and other accessories in conjunction with diagnostics
is now possible; refer to the appropriate installation guide for reference.
This document focuses on the installation and deployment of the TM450 interfaced with
JBUS. JBUS is commonly found in SEA approved Diesel trucks starting in 1998. The TM450
supports 1708 and 1939 with its internal decoder. There is no need of mechanical
configuration to select one protocol over the other. The communication scheme must be
documented in order to configure the TM450 over the air. The installer is able to switch
the JBUS input using a laptop.
The installation of the system into the vehicle is the most important component of the
system. It is very important to test the system and all its features at the end of the
installation.
