Best Practices
• Use dielectric grease on any connections outside the vehicle cabin to help protect connectors exposed to
dirt, debris, moisture, chemicals, liquids, or the outside environment.
• Route all cables to avoid tripping hazards and to protect the cable from kinking or breaking during normal
equipment operation. Be sure to allow enough slack for any folding or articulating joints along the cable
route.
Connecting the Adapter Cable
1. Connect the generation one adapter cable (P/N 115-0172-023) to the back of the field computer:
a. Insert the round, 4-pin connector into the receptacle labeled “1” on the back of the device.
b. Connect the round, 20-pin connector to the receptacle labeled “2.”
2. Disconnect the round connectors from the back of the existing Raven field computer.
3. Connect the adapter cable to the mating harness connectors.
Connecting the Console Cable
1. Connect the console cable, or generation one adapter cable, to the back of the field computer:
a. Insert the round, 4-pin connector into the receptacle labeled “1” on the back of the device.
b. Connect the round, 20-pin connector to the receptacle labeled “2.”
2. Route the console cable out of the vehicle cabin and connect to the generation 2 chassis cable.
3. If the internal DGPS receiver will be used, ensure that the DGPS input and output connectors on the
console cable are connected together. Otherwise, use these connectors to route GPS position information
from the receiver to the field computer.
