Electrical Connections - Veratron VMH Serie Bedienungsanleitung

• Drill small ports; enlarge and complete them, if
necessary, using taper milling tools, saber saws,
keyhole saws or files. Deburr edges. Follow the
safety instructions of the tool manufacturer.
• Use only insulated tools if work is necessary on
live parts.
• Use only the multimeter or diode test lamps
provided, to measure voltages and currents in
the vehicle/machine or boat. Use of
conventional test lamps can cause damage to
control units or other electronic systems.
SAFETY AFTER INSTALLATION
• Connect the ground cable tightly to the
negative terminal of the battery.
• Reenter/reprogram the volatile electronic
memory values.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

• Note cable cross-sectional area!
• Reducing the cable cross-sectional area leads
to higher current density, which can cause the
cable cross-sectional area in question to heat
up!
• When installing electrical cables, use the
provided cable ducts and harnesses; however,
do not run cables parallel to ignition cables or
to cables that lead to large electricity
consumers.
• Fasten cables with cable ties or adhesive tape.
Do not run cables over moving parts. Do not
attach cables to the steering column!
• Ensure that cables are not subject to tensile,
compressive or shearing forces.
• If cables are run through drill holes, protect
them using rubber sleeves or the like.
• Use only one cable stripper to strip the cable.
Adjust the stripper so that stranded wires are
not damaged or separated.
• Use only a soft soldering process or
commercially available crimp connector to
solder new cable connections!
• The electrical indicator outputs and cables
connected to them must be protected from
direct contact and damage. The cables in use
must have enough insulation and electric
strength and the contact points must be safe
from touch.
• Use appropriate measures to also protect the
electrically conductive parts on the connected
consumer from direct contact. Laying metallic,
uninsulated cables and contacts is prohibited.
• Check all functions.
• Use only clean water to clean the components.
Note the Ingress Protection (IP) ratings (IEC
60529).
• Make crimp connections with cable crimping
pliers only. Follow the safety instructions of the
tool manufacturer.
• Insulate exposed stranded wires to prevent
short circuits.
• Caution: Risk of short circuit if junctions are
faulty or cables are damaged.
• Short circuits in the vehicle network can cause
fires, battery explosions and damages to other
electronic systems. Consequently, all power
supply cable connections must be provided
with weldable connectors and be sufficiently
insulated.
• Ensure ground connections are sound.
• Faulty connections can cause short circuits.
Only connect cables according to the electrical
wiring diagram.
• If operating the instrument on power supply
units, note that the power supply unit must be
stabilized and it must comply with the following
standard: DIN EN 61000, Parts 6-1 to 6-4.
