TYPICAL APPLICATION Fig.7 HGM1790N Typical Application Diagram CAUTION: Crank and fuel output ports should be extended large capacity relays. CAUTION: When sensor port is configured as “high digital input is active”, hang in air means high electrical level; and power supply positive is prohibited to be connected.
□ BATTERY VOLTAGE INPUT HGM1790N series controller can suit for widely range of battery voltage DC(8~35)V. Negative of battery must be connected with the engine shell. Diameter of wire that connects from power supply to battery must be over 1.5mm .
