DESCRIPTION
Connecting (continued)
FRONT VIEW
The particularity of POLARIS is the separation of the intrinsic power supply part of the Polaris modules (central unit,
touchscreen consoles, FSP consoles) and the supply of external equipment connected to the Polaris Central Unit. The
positive terminal therefore supplies the power positive outputs of the Polaris and the power input on the TE S1 +
connector on position 21 supplies the Polaris CPU and consoles.
Interfaces such as Unitherm-HD, MFI, VFI or ADI have their own power input.
The main advantage is to optimize the coupling of the auxiliary battery and the main battery of the vehicle.
Indeed, the Polaris in this configuration has the advantage of being able to restart at any time even if the auxiliary
battery has accidentally lost its autonomy and thus to restore it by coupling via the Polaris.
In this configuration, the Polaris goes into sleep mode to reduce its own consumption to the maximum.
The intrinsic power input to Polaris at terminal 21 of connector S1 must be protected by a 5A fuse.
