Installation
Power Supply
When you have made all of the data connections and complete installation of all components, connect the
power to the LCR 600 and the Epson printer. Before making the power connections, go through the
vehicle system checklist below, and ensure that the electrical system of the truck meets the minimum
requirements for powering the LCR 600 and the Epson printer.
Vehicle System Checklist
· Clean any corrosion from the battery terminals and battery cable to guarantee a solid, tight
connection.
·
Charge the battery according to manufacturer specifications.
· Ensure the alternator is large enough to meet the total demands of the truck, including the LCR 600.
The LCR 600 requires a minimum of 5 Amps for proper operation. Run the truck at low idle, with all
accessories on (including hose reel). Then check the voltage with a multimeter. The voltage should
not drop below 11 Volts.
· Inspect the electrical equipment on the vehicle to ensure proper installation and operation.
·
Determine whether the vehicle is grounded positively or negatively. Consult Liquid Controls if the
vehicle has a positive ground.
· Ensure that any radio antennas are installed according to manufacturer specifications to prevent RF
interference.
Connect the Power
All LCR 600 shipments typically include a 40-foot gray power cable (100-foot, and 300-foot are also
available) and a 7.5 Amp fuse.
Cable routing
Routing LCD 600 Data and Power Cables describes the best practices for routing the gray power
cable to the truck cab’s accessory panel.
40-foot Gray Power Cable
The gray power cable (PN 84046) is prewired to the J6 terminal on the CPU board at the factory. It
includes two 16AWG wires and a ground drain wire. The 7.5 Amp fuse should be spliced into the red
16AWG wire as close to the power source as possible.
