PowerMate 15 Gen3 has 16 MOSFET Outputs which are rated at 20 Ampere each maximum. All outputs can ONLY
be Switched to Battery. Each Output is double protected by hardware and software, i.e.
MOSFET OUTPUT
MOSFET OUTPUT
PowerMate 15 Gen3 can shut down the MOSFET in case of Over-Current and
In case of software exception, the fuse will be blown to protect the circuit from further damages.
PowerMate 15 Gen3 has 16 Binary Inputs which are capable of reading Digital High/Low Input. Each Binary Input
can be configured as Switch to Ground (STG)/Switch to Battery (STB) and High/Low Active independently:
BINARY INPUT
BINARY INPUT
STG Active Input examples: - Park Brake, Door Switch, Locker Doors etc.
STB Active Input examples: - Ignition, PTO, High Beam etc.

Binary Inputs by default are configured as STB Active Inputs.
PowerMate 15 Gen3 has one RS-485 channel. It can communicate with other PowerMate Series Digital Switching
modules and Keypads within the system network using the OmniBus Interface.
OMNIBUS INTERFACE
OMNIBUS INTERFACE
PowerMate 15 Gen3 is default configured to communicate at 9600 bps (9600, 8-N-1).
The user can retrieve system status such as output and input pin conditions, current status, analog input
values as well as battery status.
PowerMate 15 Gen3 has one CAN channel. It can communicate with other PowerMate Series Digital Switching
Systems using CAN Interface.
CAN INTERFACE
CAN INTERFACE
PowerMate 15 Gen3 is default configured to communicate at 250 kbps.
PowerMate 15 Gen3 supports CAN protocols such as J1939, CANOpen, CANStandard etc.
Common Status that the PowerMate Series Digital Switching Systems would be able to obtain from the
CANbus include:
Vehicle Speed
Engine Revolution Per Minute
Gear Position
Further customisation is possible to suit specific client requirements.
POWER
POWER
PowerMate 15 Gen3 has the unique ability to divide power voltages within the device via two (2) connected Power
Studs. Each Power Stud manages 8 outputs that can be regulated at either 12V or 24V, i.e.
Battery Stud #1 @ 12V
Battery Stud #2 @ 24V
Each Power Stud has an 80 Ampere input current with a total maximum of 120 Ampere across the whole device.
