DEVICE DESCRIPTION (Continued)
Antennas: NAL Research recommends the SAF7352-IG model antenna.
CAUTION
: Connect antennas prior to power up
device. Do not disconnect the antenna when the 9602-LP is turned on.
POWER ON DEVICE
The 9602-LP accepts 3.6 VDC to +5.3 VDC input through pin #1 or +6.0 VDC to +32 VDC input through pin #9. The
9602-LP ships with hardware set for +6.0 VDC to +32 VDC input.
IMPORTANT
: The 9602-LP antenna must have a clear view of the sky during transmission.
1.
With the device turned off, connect the Iridium antenna (gold) connector to the Iridium (gold) connector port and
connect the GPS antenna (silver) connector to the GPS (silver) connector port.
2.
Ensure the antenna has a clear view of the sky and the cable loss between the tracker and antenna is less than 2 dB.
3.
Supply the appropriate DC power to the 9602-LP via a data/power cable.
a)
Connect external power input (+6.0 VDC to +32 VDC – Factory default) to Pin #9 on the multi-interface
connector.
b)
Connect external power input (GND) to Pin#2.
•
The 9602-LP defaults to “Tracking” mode and begins tracking.
•
The device automatically powers up when external power is applied. This can be changed via configuration.
•
The cable that supply power to the 9602-LP should be as short as possible to prevent significant voltage
drop, which can cause the 9602-LP to malfunction during an SBD session.
