Vehicle Power Switch & Shutdown Timer (VPS-1)
The Vehicle Power Switch is necessary to allow the devices which do not feature “Green
Engineering” battery protection circuitry to power down after a pre-programmed number of
hours. This function allows the devices to upload leakage data to the LAW application via
the Wi-Fi connection, and prevents the device from depleting the vehicle’s battery when left
unattended for long periods of time.
The following steps provide detailed instructions on how to install the Vehicle Power Switch
(VPS-1) with devices which do not feature the “Green Engineering” battery protection
circuitry.
1. At the Mobile Mount or Seeker BB-2, disconnect the power cable from device.
2. Install the Vehicle Power Switch inside the cab of the truck/van, within reach of the
existing power cable.
3. Re-route the power cable to the Vehicle Power Switch.
4. Route the cable included with the Vehicle Power Switch from the switch to the
Mobile Mount or Seeker BB-2.
The Vehicle Power Switch is not weather-proof, and must be
installed inside the vehicle, where it will be protected from
moisture.
Do not connect the Vehicle Power Switch to a power source
greater than 15 Volts. Any voltage greater than 15 V could
cause damage to the Vehicle Power Switch.
