Electrical installation (on vehicle, fork lift)
On the MPC 6 and on the vehicle
• Ensure that the ground connection is correct!
• Choose a suitable position on the forklift for the ground connection.
• Sometimes the position from which the ground signal is to come is
specifi ed by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Position and attach the DLoG MPC 6 as close to the battery as
possible.
• Do not attach the DLoG MPC 6 directly to a connector for a high-
powered consumer (e.g. an inverter for fork lift motors) as this could
lead to restarts, malfunctions or damage to the device..
• Some forklifts have a chassis that is connected to DC+.
Therefore, the DLoG MPC 6 chassis is also connected to DC+.
However, if you use peripheral devices that supply DC- to the
DLoG MPC 6 via an interconnector (such as a DC- serial port),
this will cause a short circuit. This will inevitably lead to malfunctions
or even a total system failure

Overview of the installation steps:
Before you mount the DLoG MPC 6 onto the vehicle:
• The automatic switch-off function must be confi gured.
• The forklift must be prepared
(connection to ignition, observe correct voltage, etc.)
We recommend that the installation process is carried out in the following
sequence:
• Step 1: Secure the mounting bracket onto the vehicle
• Step 2: Attach the DLoG MPC 6 to the mounting bracket
When installing your DLoG MPC 6, please observe the assembly
instructions that come with the relevant mounting kit.
The DLoG MPC 6 and
accessories must not
protrude beyond the vehicle.

Cable cover and strain relief (on vehicle, fork lift)
Once the DLoG MPC 6 and mounting bracket have been secured:
• Prepare the strain relief.
• Position the cables on the stress relief rail so that they will fi t through
the openings in the cable cover.
• Mount the cables loosely on the strain relief rail.
• When attaching the cables observe the following: The power supply
cable is provided with a ferrite core; you must lay this cable in a loop
for space reasons (see photo below).
Final steps:
• Fix the cables to the strain relief rail.
• Close the cable cover carefully, observing the assembly instructions
provided with the DLoG MPC 6.
