Considerations for mounting are:
- Inside the cabin and away from potential water damage. The processor is rated to IP50
and is not waterproof. It cannot be mounted outside of the cabin. Water damage will
void warranty.
- In a place that is well ventilated (the processor radiates heat from the heat sink). It is
rated from -40C to 65C. It is recommended that it is not exposed to direct sunlight.
- In a place where it is not likely that a driver or passenger will be able to touch the heat
sink (not near a passenger seat or where a passengers legs may rest during vehicle
operation).
- In a place where it does not interfere with other devices.
- In a place that allows easy access for maintenance.
- Ensuring that the cables can reach the processor and other components.
Examples of appropriate locations:
- Behind the Driver’s or Passengers seat.
- Under the Passengers seat.
- Inside the dashboard (if there is sufficient ventilation)
- Under the dashboard.
- On a bed/bunk wall.
Mounting the Pan:
The mounting pan is a light weight, plastic
receiver designed to house the Controller
Unit. The Mounting Pan allows you to site
the final location of the Controller Unit
without having to lock the Controller Unit in
place.
You should use at least 3 of the 6 mounting
holes to suit your selected mounting
location. The mounting holes are designed
to ‘capture’ a standard M6 nut and hold it in
place while the screw is adjusted.
The orientation of the Mounting Pan should
be aligned so that you have easy access to
the T20 locking screws when you need to
remove the Controller Panel and access the
connection face.
The raised holes allow mounting on carpet
so that the locking plate functions normally.
Note: The Mounting the Pan is not to be
fixed to the inside top of an enclosed space,
as heat generated from the controller will not
be able to escape. It must be mounted on
the floor or on a vertical surface.
