SWITCH INPUT WIRING (E1–8)
Connecting the TVMS Rogue to switches�
The TVMS Rogue has eight digital inputs that can be configured to switch TVMS Rogue output
loads on/off when triggered, for example to turn Off all loads except a fridge when the vehicle
ignition is on.
When purchasing switches, consider environmental requirements. For example, switches installed
near wet or dusty locations need to be dustproof/waterproof with a suitable IP rating.
RECOMMENDED SWITCH TYPES:
Momentary push button — for dimming applications, switches with Normally Open (NO)
ƒ
contacts are recommended.
Toggle switch — any clean-contact switches can be used e.g. Single Pole Single Throw
ƒ
(SPST) switches. Normally Open (NO) when in the Off state are recommended to minimise
standby power i.e. the switch would be open circuit when the door is closed.
Micro switch / Door switch — any clean-contact switches can be used. Normally Open (NO)
ƒ
when in the Off state are recommended to minimise standby power consumption i.e. the switch
would be open circuit when the door is closed.
Ignition or Voltage input switch —these switches can be configured to turn channels Off
ƒ
while driving, e.g. to turn all exterior caravan lights Off when it is being towed.
12 V Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor switch — these are motion-detecting switches that can
ƒ
be configured to have a timer-controlled output, e.g. to turn a security light On for a set amount
of time before turning it Off again.
Note: PIR switches require a power connection (C/D) in addition to the switching connection
(E 1–8). Connect the power wire/s on the sensor switch to an Output (at C or D) to allow the
sensor to be switched On or Off by TVMS Rogue. This is a useful configuration for an externally
mounted PIR sensor that activates a security light, because it gives you the ability to temporarily
disable it. It also allows you to disable PIR sensors when your system is in storage to prevent
discharge of the Auxiliary Battery.
Illuminated switches — choose switches that illuminate when the device it controls is On.
ƒ
Note: Illuminated switches require a power connection (C/D) in addition to the switching
connection (E 1–8).
