Connecting The Janus 2050 To The Vehicle Power Supply - Intermec Janus 2050 User Manual

Connecting the JANUS 2050 to the Vehicle Power Supply

Use the following guidelines to connect the JANUS 2050 to a vehicle power
supply.
The power connection should be as close as possible to the vehicle battery.
Battery vendors have recommended using sheet metal screws to connect
the JANUS 2050 power cable connections directly to the lead battery
terminal.
If it is not possible to attach the JANUS 2050 power cable directly to the
battery, attach the cable to the point immediately past the battery
connector. After the connection has been made, test for the correct voltage
and polarity at each pin of the connector.
The connections should be made as follows:
JANUS 2050 Power
Connector Pin
A
B
C
Shell
Note: The power connection must supply constant power to the JANUS 2050
whether the vehicle is operating or not.
If you connect the JANUS 2050 to the dashboard power, check that ample
power is available and remains within the specified DC input range before
making a connection.
Note: It takes approximately 15 hours to fully charge the internal battery when the
JANUS 2050 is not operating or 30 hours when it is operating. The JANUS 2050
can function before the battery is charged, but it will not have full data retention
capability when there is a power loss. The JANUS 2050 internal battery must be
fully charged to retain data with a power loss.
Caution
Turn off the JANUS 2050 before connecting or disconnecting the power.
