Page 14: Soft Power On/Off
A qualified vehicle electrician or mechanic should choose the circuit. Prepare wiring The STS-1020 uses 14/3 tinned marine wire for its power run and a single conductor of 18 or 20 AWG tinned marine wire for the optional digital I/O connection.
Page 15: Digital I/O
Follow these steps to prepare the terminal block for power at the STS end of the power cable: 1. Locate the 4-pin terminal block in the accessory box, and loosen screws 1 and 3 at the bottom of the block. STS-1020 On-Board Installation Guide Digital I/O | 15...
Page 16 2. At the STS end of the power cable, connect the black wire to pin 1 (-) and the red wire to pin 3 (+) of the 4-pin terminal block. 3. Tighten the set screws on bottom of the terminal block to secure the wires in place. 4.
Page 17: Power Cable Pre-Check
Hold the cables together in one hand, and the 4-pin terminal block in the other. Pull your hands away from each other, then push them together to test the cables. Repeat once or twice. They should remain secure. STS-1020 On-Board Installation Guide Power cable pre-check | 17...
Page 18: Connecting Power To The Sts Unit
Connecting power to the STS unit The following steps explain how to connect power to the STS units. Please review the following warnings and read the entire section before you begin. 10–30 VDC. Doing so can cause fire and/or an electrical shock. Warning: Always remove power from the DC circuit before performing any elec- Warning: To power the unit on, follow all electrical safety guidelines.
Page 19 Place the STS approximately 6 inches from the front side (closest to the front of the bus) of the over- head bin, with the front panel facing you and the bus walkway/aisle. STS-1020 On-Board Installation Guide Connecting power to the STS unit | 19...
Page 20 Step 2: Cable positioning Place the power cable behind the STS in the overhead bin, to check positioning. Do not connect yet. To ensure proper placement of the STS in relation to the Meraki AP, position the Meraki AP approx- imately 2 to 3 feet away from the STS (towards the rear of the bus) in the overhead bin, with the front panel facing you and the bus walkway/aisle.
Page 21 Connect the red power wire clamp to the positive (+) terminal of the bus' power. Optional, not pictured: Connect your separate true ignition wire to your chosen true ignition cir- cuit. STS-1020 On-Board Installation Guide Connecting power to the STS unit | 21...
Page 22 Step 5: Connect power to STS Screw the green block connector on the STS power cable into the DC IN port on the rear panel of the STS. Optional true ignition wire, not pictured: In the same manner, connect the 5-pin terminal block to the digital I/O port, immediately to left of the PWR port.
Page 23 If the LEDs do not light, check all your connections (red, black, and white) and verify that they are good. If all connections look good and the LED lights are still not on, contact LILEE Systems. Step 7: Verify power off Turn the bus ignition off.
Page 24: Power On/Off Delay
Power on/off delay The STS does not start up or shut down immediately. The power on/off delay feature is used for install- ations in vehicles. The delay in starting up allows time for the engine to start, so the STS is not drawing on the battery when the vehicle is starting.
Page 25: Antenna Installation
Antennas going into two different modems/dialers that are using the same carrier would need to be mounted on the different side of the bus. Any deviation from this guideline is not allowed without discussion and agreement from the rest of the CIM team. STS-1020 On-Board Installation Guide Antenna Installation | 25...

Page 30 Step 4: Cable routing Before attaching anything to the bus, route the antenna cables from the STS unit to the antenna loc- ations to ensure proper placement. Once you have verified the route, secure the cables such that they will not be disturbed or moved in transit. Do not attach the anntennas yet. When routing, use the following diagram as a guide for placement: 30 | Installing LTE and GPS antennas...
Page 31 Using the numerical labels that you added to each antenna/plug, do a final placement check prior to attachment. Once you're sure each antenna is in the correct place, remove the adhesive backing from the double- backed tape and attach to the pre-selected locations.
