User Manual and Reference Handbook for the CC Pilot™ XL
CC Pilot™ XL
Installation
Your CC Pilot™ XL must be installed in such a way that the unit is not exposed to any
unnecessary stress or present any traffic danger. In this section, some
recommendations are made regarding methods for how the unit should be installed.
For information about mounting accessories please contact your CC Pilot™ XL
reseller.
CC Pilot™ XL shall only be installed and serviced by authorized personnel. If the unit is
opened by non-authorised personnel, the warranty becomes void.
For the warranty to be valid, the installation of the CC Pilot™ XL must be approved by
CrossControl. This is done through an “Application Approval”; contact CrossControl for
more information.
Placing and installing of the unit and peripherals
The CC Pilot™ XL shall be installed in a ventilated space where air is able to circulate
around the unit, therefore not near hot air vents or the like. There must be at least 50
mm distance between the unit and the closest partition or any other barrier. If the unit
becomes too warm, it may not perform to its full capacity and, with high temperature,
cease to function.
If the preceding instructions are not observed, the cooling of the unit can be degraded
which can lead to overheating, consequently causing permanent damage to the unit.
When the CC Pilot™ XL or any device is installed in a vehicle environment it is
important that the installation is traffic-safe. One should also avoid installing the unit
where it will block the driver’s view. This applies to both the instrument panel and the
view through windshield. One should also think about how the placement affects
personal safety in the event of a collision.
Consider traffic safety whenever the CC Pilot™ XL is installed and used in vehicle
installations. CrossControl does not recommend that the CC Pilot™ XL or its
accessories are used actively by the driver or operator when a risk of injury to people,
or damage to property, is present.
Mounting the PC unit separately
The PC unit should be fastened onto suitable panelling in the cabin or some place
similar. This is done with the six mounting holes on the sides of the unit. Suitable
fasteners, such as MRT M4x25 or MC6S M4x25 screws, can be used. The maximum
tightening torque allowed is 1.0 Nm. If the surface, on which the PC unit should be
fastened, is not flat, care must be taken so as not to put mechanical tension on the unit
during fastening. This can appropriately be solved by placing suitable spacers between
the PC unit and the surface it is to be fastened on. An alternative solution is to use a
separate, flat mounting plate for the PC unit. This plate is first fastened onto the desired
area with separate screws, or by other means. Use thread lockers in all screw holes,
e.g., Loctite 222.
We recommend installing CC Pilot™ XL in such a way that it is not exposed to
unnecessary vibration or other stress.
