Port Cable Port B (RJ45) The Navman Wireless Qube300 is an Automatic Vehicle Location unit (AVL) that is installed into fleet vehicles. It communicates with a server and allows vehicle information to be stored and monitored. It is a combined GPS (Global Positioning System) and communications product that contains: Power Harness •...
Identifying the Correct Wires 1. Remove any interior/under dash trim necessary to gain access to vehicle’s wiring as well as all areas where interconnecting wire harnesses will need to be located. 2. Attach fuse holders to the Constant and Ignition wires of the Qube’s harness. 3.
Page 11
Identifying the Correct Wires Vehicle’s Constant Power wire The correct wire will have battery voltage +12V (or +24V) present at all times, even when the ignition key is in off position or removed. Connect Qube’s red wire here. Vehicle’s Ignition wire The correct wire will have +12V (or +24V) present only when -- the key is in ON position, during cranking and while motor is running.
Poke & Wrap solderless Connections The recommended method of connecting wires is by soldering. As an alternative, when working inside the cab or any weatherproof environment, a “Poke & Wrap” method for solder-less connections will be acceptable. During the “Poke & Wrap” procedure use extreme caution not to allow any exposed wires to come into direct/indirect contact with the vehicle’s chassis or other exposed wires.
Chassis Ground Connection • Connect the Qube’s Ground wire (black) to vehicle’s chassis. • For a solid connection, use a ring tongue terminal connector, star washer and a self-tapping screw • Do not ground under existing bolts that hold brackets or panels in place. •...
