External features Label Feature System RGB LED GNSS antenna (internal) Cellular antenna (internal) External connectors (on bottom) Magnetic, bolt-down, or strap-down mounting bracket User RGB LEDs (2) User button (externally accessible) Wi-Fi geolocation antenna (internal, optional) Cover screws (6) (M2 hex, 2mm) USER BUTTON A waterproof button is available from the outside of the enclosure. Long press (10 seconds) resets the device (as if the RESET button was pressed) Shorter press and multiple press can be handled by your user firmware for your own features USER LEDS (2) There are two small RGB LEDs visible from the outside on the side of the unit, next to the user button. The upper LED defaults to being a GNSS lock indicator: Off: GNSS off Blinking (green): attempting to get a GNSS fix On (green): GNSS fix acquired You can program custom colors, blinking, and fade effects from your user firmware for the lower LED.
Page 5 LEDs are controlled by a ADP8866 I2C LED controller. CONNECTORS The bottom plate of the Monitor One can be customized with different connectors for your application. Label Feature Cellular antenna (SMA) M12 connector (8-pin) M12 connector (4-pin) GNSS antenna (SMA) Mounting plate attachment screw By default the Monitor One uses the internal cellular and GNSS antennas, but can be switched to using the external connectors inside the enclosure. The cellular (1) and GNSS (4) antennas are not connected internally at the factory. In order to use the external connectors you must open the case, disconnect the internal antenna, and instead connect the U.FL connector for the external jack. The Monitor One is equipped with 2 external-facing SMA bulkhead connectors for both cellular and GNSS but are disconnected internally. The hardware is ready for use with external antennas giving the ability to connect a wide variety of application-specific antennas. It is recommended that the user perform required RF certifications with the selected antenna installed as the Monitor One has only been certified for use in select regions with the internal antennas.
Page 6 Mounting The Monitor One is intended to be mounted in the orientation shown at the top of the page, with the connectors facing down. You can also mount it with the mounting plate mounted on a flat surface as the GNSS antenna is angled to allow it to work in either orientation. When using external cellular and GNSS antennas you can orient the Monitor One in other directions. Label Details Mounting screw or bolt holes Slots for strap mounting Magnets Mounting plate removal screw (M3 hex, 3mm) The mounting plate contains two magnets (3) that allow it to be easily mounted on a metal surface. The mounting plate is removable from the back of the unit after removing the screw on the bottom (4), near the expansion connectors. Once removed, you can screw or bolt the mounting plate through the four holes (1) and reattach the Monitor One. This is good for rough conditions and for mounting on non-metal surfaces. The mounting plate can be strap mounted through the two slots (2). The magnets do not need to removed to use screw, bolt, or strap mounting.

Page 10 I/O Card The Monitor One is designed with easy-to-use expansion headers and an enclosure with sufficient space inside for an expansion card, and for additional expansion connector through the wall of enclosure. The Monitor One Developer's Edition includes the I/O Card, which includes: Feature Location Details M12 8-pin Power input, 6 - 30V DC CAN Bus M12 8-pin RS485 (Modbus) M12 8-pin 4-20 mA input M12 8-pin 0-10V analog input M12 8-pin 12-24V slow-signal input M12 4-pin Opto-isolated Relay M12 4-pin 30VDC 2A maximum QWIIC connector expansion card 3.3V I2C I/O CARD M12 8-PIN TO FLYING LEADS The Monitor One includes a M12 8-pin male to flying leads cable, 1500±20mm (about 60 inches or 5 feet). This is used to power the Monitor One, and also use the 4-20mA, 0-10V analog in, CAN bus, and RS485 (Modbus) interfaces.

If you disconnect and reconnect the adapter, make sure the + screw terminal is connected to red and the - screw terminal is connected to black. An appropriate 24 VDC power adapter is included. Any 6VDC to 30VDC power adapter at 2A with a 5.5x2.1mm barrel connector, center positive can be used instead, if desired. For automotive use, you can use this power input directly to a 12V or 24V vehicle power system as the power supply is designed to handle transient voltage present on vehicle power systems. The RS485 and CAN interface pins on the M12 8-pin connector cannot be used as GPIO. I/O CARD M12 4-PIN TO FLYING LEADS The Monitor One includes a M12 4-pin male to flying leads cable, 1500±20mm (about 60 inches or 5 feet). | Conn P1 (M12)| Color | Function | GPIO | | :---: | :---: | :--- | :--- | :---: | | 1 | Red | 12-24V slow-signal input | A5 | | 2 | Green | Relay COM | | | 3 | Black | Ground | | | 4 | Blue | Relay (NO) | NFC_PIN2 |...

Page 13 If you wish to build upon the I/O Card, there is a small prototyping area (1). If you need signals from the expansion card interface, they are available in the rows of pins (19, 20). If you wish to disable an interface that you are not using and re-use the pins on the M12 8-pin connector, there is a small trace jumper between the rows of pins in area (14). Cutting this trace isolates the expansion card signal from the signal to the connector (16). Then you can solder a small jumper wire to replace the signal on the M12 8-pin.

This is connected via a short cable to a PHR-8 female connector that attaches to your expansion card. The picture above shows the cable but a board is not installed in the picture.

However, M12 connectors are available from 2 pin to 17 pins. The connectors with smaller numbers of pins often have higher voltage and current ratings. The panel-mount 8-pin connector on the Monitor One is female, with the following pinout: Looking at the bulkhead connector from outside the enclosure The panel mount M12 8-pin connector fits in the following hole in the enclosure:...

Page 29 This is not necessary if your external peripherals are powered by 3V3 or CAN_5V. VIN DISABLE By default, if power is applied at the VIN pin it will be used to power the Monitor One and charge the built-in battery. If you are supplying VIN from another, larger battery pack, and want to be able to disconnect the VIN power supply to minimize current loss, you can do so using the following circuit in lieu of using NFC2 as the relay pin, as the I/O Card does. By disconnecting the VIN power supply, it reduces the current used by the VIN and PMIC voltage regulators. The Monitor One can still be powered by its internal LiPo battery. This is particularly advantageous if the Monitor One is in sleep mode while VIN is disconnected as the power supply loss will be large compared to the very low sleep current in this scenario.

Product handling ESD PRECAUTIONS The Monitor One contains highly sensitive electronic circuitry and is an Electrostatic Sensitive Device (ESD). Handling an module without proper ESD protection may destroy or damage it permanently. Proper ESD handling and packaging procedures must be applied throughout the processing, handling and operation of any application that incorporates the module. ESD precautions should be implemented on the application board where the B series is mounted. Failure to observe these precautions can result in severe damage to the module! BATTERY WARNING CAUTION RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE. DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS. DISPOSAL This device must be treated as Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment (WEEE) when disposed of. Any WEEE marked waste products must not be mixed with general household waste, but kept separate for the treatment, recovery and recycling of the materials used. For proper treatment, recovery and recycling; please take all WEEE marked waste to your Local Authority Civic waste site, where it will be accepted free of charge. If all consumers dispose of Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment correctly, they will be helping to save valuable resources and preventing any potential negative effects upon human health and the environment of any hazardous materials that the waste may contain.
