9.1.3. Mounting the VMM2404 to a Vehicle
It is up to the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to ensure the product is
securely mounted to the vehicle.
The following guidelines are related to physically attaching the VMM2404 to a
vehicle:
Secure the VMM2404 with bolts in all bolt holes using Hex Head 1/4"-20 or
equivalent metric size (6 mm) bolts.
The bolts should be tightened according to the fastener manufacturer's
tightening torque specifications.
9.2. Electrical Installation Guidelines
Use the following guidelines when installing the VMM2404 in a vehicle.
9.2.1. Designing and Connecting the Vehicle Harness
The vehicle manufacturer is responsible for designing a vehicle harness that mates
with the VMM2404 connector(s).
The vehicle harness design depends on the following:
How the VMM2404's inputs, outputs, communication, and power pins are
configured.
Other components on the vehicle and their physical locations.
The routing of the harness.
Suggested wire sizing for the various connections are as follows:
Inputs, 18 AWG
Outputs, 16 AWG
Logic power and ground, 18 AWG
Other powers and grounds, 16 AWG
Busbar power, if applicable, 14 AWG per 20 A of current (or 8 AWG per 40
A of current for single pin busbar connectors)
Once the vehicle harness is designed, it can be connected to the VMM2404
simply by clicking the mating connector into the connector port on the
VMM2404.
