To supply power to the DynaGATE 10-12, complete the following steps:
1. Set up a DC power source that:
Check the input voltage as close as possible to the Power IN connector. This is to compensate for
any cable losses, caused by cable length and other cable characteristics
2. Make sure that the DC power source is turned OFF
3. Include an external 2 A fuse on the line coming from the negative terminal of the DC power source
to protect the DynaGATE 10-12
4. Connect the DC power source terminals to Pins 1 and 2 of the Power IN connector.
5. Turn ON the DC power source. The DynaGATE 10-12 automatically turns ON and the LED 6
(POWER) turns ON.
Note about the Vehicle Ignition Sense
The Vehicle Ignition Sense is a digital input that can be used to monitor the ignition status.
The DynaGATE 10-12 turns ON independently of the status of the Vehicle Ignition Sense (for further
