Device Installation:
Special Note:
The recommended mounting location for the MF603 is high on the nose of
the trailer, away from the corner, and just below the top rail with the GPS
antenna pointing up. Install the device per the instructions included in the
box for the MF603.
1. Power Connection Cable
-
Unscrew the protective cover from the din cable connection
on the MF603
and connect the Power cable. Make sure to seat the din cable securely in
the MF603 and screw it in completely. Secure the cable with metal cable
clamps.
2. Power Connection -
You will need to connect the MF603 cable to the trailer power through
MF603’s Pink (6-24VDC In) and Black (Ground) wires. Wire the red wire
with the corresponding power joint and black wire with the
corresponding
ground joint from the trailer.
Wiring Door Sensor:
The final step to complete the installation of your MF603 is the
connection of the door sensor wires. It is important that you secure
the wires with cable zip-ties making sure to keep away from any
moving parts. With the wires along with the mounting pad on the
ceiling of the trailer combine Yellow and Black wires and then
connect either one wire (no polarity on 2 wires) to the MF603’s Pink
(RS232 Rx) wire and the other wire to the MF603’s Purple (12 VDC
out) wire through the following steps:
1. Strip
2 wires jacket to 7mm.
2. Insert
the whole stripped wire into splice and crimp it with tools.
3. Insert
crimped splice inth heat tube .
4. Do
the same for the MF603’s pink wire.
5. Move
the heat tube to cover the whole splice.
6. Heat
tube using a blower or lighter until the tube is shrunk.
7. Repeat
steps for combining the other wires and connecting them
to the MF603’s purple wire.
