with these ratings: 12/24 V DC. The allowed voltage range from the battery is from 10 volts to 32 volts DC.
Max. current for FM-Pro4 is 250 mA @ 12 V DC. Max. current for FM-Pro4 3G / Pro4 BT is 350 mA @ 12 V
DC.
To avoid mechanical damage, it is advised to transport the FM terminal in an impact-proof package.
Before connecting wires of the 12 PIN cable to the vehicle, it is recommended to ensure that the cross-
sectional area of wires mounting is at least 0.75 mm
