Power Cable Identification - Honeywell Thor VM2 User Manual

Power Cable Identification

The DC power cable is included with the dock and is one of the two styles below:
Power cable with right angle connector and 6 wires:
Twist the red and red/white wires together and twist the
black and black/white wires together before connecting to
vehicle power.
Power cable with straight connector and 4 wires:
Note: Correct electrical polarity is required for safe and proper installation. See
additional wire color-coding specifics.
The Thor VM2 DC input wires (Red, Red/White DC+ and Black, Black/White DC-) and the Blue ignition input wire are
galvanically isolated. The Green ground input is used for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection.
Vehicle 50-150VDC Power Connection
1. Please review the
2. The Thor VM2 must not be mounted in the dock. The power switch on the dock must be turned Off. The power
cable must be UNPLUGGED from the dock.
3. Route the cable from the Thor VM2 to the DC/DC power supply. Route the power cable the shortest way pos-
sible. The cable is rated for a maximum temperature of 105°C (221°F). When routing this cable, it should be
protected from physical damage and from surfaces that might exceed this temperature. Do not expose the
cable to chemicals or oil that may cause the wiring insulation to deteriorate. Always route the cable so that it
does not interfere with safe operation and maintenance of the vehicle.
4. Cut the cable to length and strip the wire ends.
5. Remove the lid from the DC/DC power supply.
6. Connect the stripped end of the positive wires (red and red/white twisted together or a single red wire) to the
output block. See
Wiring Diagram (page 4-27), before beginning power cable install.
