Description
Red Main power supply for device
Note: If you want to turn the LX60 on/off using a control line, such as a
vehicle ignition line, Sierra Wireless strongly recommends that you
connect the control/ignition line to Pin 3 and apply continuous power on
Pin 1.
Main device ground
For installations where the LX60 is to be turned on/off, use the white wire
connected to Pin 3 in the DC cable. The LX60 is off when this pin is either
open-circuit or grounded, and on when this pin is connected to power. The
LX60 should not be turned off by simply disconnecting the power.
Pin 3 can be connected to the vehicle ignition or to an external switch.
Note: If you do not connect pin 3 to the ignition or other switch, you
MUST connect it to the positive terminal of your power supply or battery. If
you are using a Sierra Wireless AC adapter, the connection is inside the
cable.
User configurable digital input/output or analog voltage sensing input.
Connect to switch, relay or external device. For more information, see
