The BSM is also suitable for switching on DC loads that are only required to be active when the engine is running (such as inverters)
Purpose
The BSM140 (hereinafter: BSM) is a high-capacity mechanical switch with integrated vibration (i.e. motion) detection that can be used in situations where 2
batteries are present, for example, in trucks, workvans and campervans.
It is no longer possible to read whether a vehicle is 'on' based on the battery voltage with regard to many modern vehicles. The BSM has a sensor that detects
vibrations. The BSM can detect whether a vehicle is 'on' based on the measured vibrations.
Since every vehicle is unique and has its own vibration frequency and amplitude, the user can set the sensitivity of the BSM. The actions that must be
performed to set the sensitivity of the BSM are listed in the "Configure" section.
