Getting your system to work:
When you have connected your Kimax 2 Radio and your Kimax 2 Sensor to the electrical
system on your vehicle, you need to go to page 18 of this manual for instruction on setting up
the communication between Kimax 2 Radio and Kimax 2 Sensor and learn how to customize
the Kimax 2 system to fit exactly to your vehicle.
When you have finished the setup of your system, you need to go to page 21 for instructions
on how to calibrate the Kimax 2 system.
When you have finished the calibration of your Kimax 2 system, you can go to page 25 to learn
how to protect your setup, configuration and calibration.
The Kimax 2 Radio is calibrated together with the bellows (on air suspended vehicles) and the
actual weight of the truck.
The Kimax 2 Sensor on the trailer is calibrated together with the bellows (on air suspended
vehicles) and the actual weight of the trailer.
In this way, you can swap from one trailer to another trailer and you still can read the actual
weight of the entire vehicle on the Kimax 2 Radio (both trailers have to be equipped with a
Kimax 2 Sensor).
Some CAN-bus systems are very sensitive and respond immediately when you load circuits
with additional power consumption. In these cases, we recommend the standard truck and
trailer installation. The power consumption of one Kimax 2 equals the consumption of a 3 W
lamp on a 24 Volt system.
