WARNING
Always follow the vehicle manufacturer's recommendations for electrical accessories
connection.
Honeywell recommends choosing unswitched power as the source for the power supply. This will
allow Talkman devices to be powered for software updates as well as prevent Talkman devices
from accidentally being unpowered if the vehicle is switched off unintentionally.
IMPORTANT
The power supply cable must be installed from the vehicle's fuse panel or with an in-line fuse
to the device along the vehicle wall, always inside the vehicle cabin, and must not cross the
vehicle's firewall protection.

Precautions

Take the following precautions to ensure maximum safety when routing electrical cables:
The vehicle must be off and the vehicle's battery must be disconnected.
l
Cables should be kept clear of surfaces that may become hot.
l
Cables should not be run such that they can get caught on moving parts.
l
Cables should not be run on the outside of a vehicle.
l
Cables should not have 90 degree turns, the minimum bend radius should not be less than
l
one inch
To remove slack on a cable it should be coiled up and secured inside the vehicle with a
l
cable tie.
Fuses should be located as close as possible to the power source.
l
To protect the VMT from power surges and to perform voltage conversion a converter
l
module is fitted between the VMT and the forklift battery.

Assemble the Vehicle Battery Cable

1. Route the battery cable from the power supply to the vehicle battery.
2. Cut the battery cable near the battery leaving enough of the cable to reach the battery
terminals.
