5.9.9 Key Switch Input
Pin 5 of the tiller connector provides the key switch power circuit. A high-quality key switch
(> 50,000 operations) should be used. Up to two status LEDs (up to 10 mA each) may be
wired in line with this output as an alternative to using one of the Status output pins.

Key Switch with one
in-line Status LED
Key Switch with two
in-line Status LEDs
If there is no status LED wired in series with the key switch, set Key Switch Status LED to
'No' to decrease the current drain by 10 mA when the RHINO2 is turned on.
Note
The voltage drop across the LED should be less than 5 V at 10 mA.
If more brightness is desired, two LEDs may be connected in series. The total voltage drop across the LEDs must
not exceed 5 V.
LEDs with voltage ratings, for example 12 V or 24 V, have internally fitted resistors and must not be used.
5.9.10 Status Indicator Output
Pins 3, 10, and 11 on the tiller connector can be configured as dedicated status outputs.
Pin 10 also has the ability to be active either high or low.
Pin 10 is rated for 50 mA sink and 10 mA source, whereas Pins 3 and 11 are capable of an
output up to 500 mA. Select a resistor to limit LED current.
