Please read through this manual thoroughly to enable you to fully exploit the various features of your product. To the extent permitted by law Kistler accepts no liability if this instruction manual is not followed or products other than those listed under Accessories are used.
Tips, extra information or important information. Death, personal injury or damage to your KiHUB could re- sult from connecting the wrong voltage to the wrong pins of your KiHUB connectors. Be extremely careful that you connect the correct voltages to the correct connectors as specified in this manual.
1. Contact voltage proof. 2. Dust-protected: Ingress of dust is not totally prevented, but dust shall not penetrate in a quantity to interfere with satisfactory operation of the KiHUB or to impair safety. For proper dust protection all sockets should be either po- pulated with plugs or dust caps.
2.1 System overview Fig. 1: KiHUB, Type K3879BQ02 Type K3879BQ02 forms part of the new Kistler KiHUB communication device family developed to link Kistler on- board measurement systems and ATDs used in automoti- ve crash tests. Basic functions of KiHUB are: ...

KiDAU family devices. Ethernet twisted pair 100 MBit/s. Power is distributed from CL1 or trailing cable input via 7 A fuse. Fig. 2: KiHUB, Type K3879B connector overview is a registered trademark of Kistler Holding AG. inidau K3879BQ02_002-803e-12.20 Page 7...
If the supply voltage exceeds 64 V, damage to your KiHUB will result The KiHUB has internal DC/DC converters that will opera- te from a power supply voltage of 20 ... 60 V. The maximum power consumption of a KiHUB with on-board adapter is 20 W (supplying maximum battery charging current).

20 ... 36 V. Excee- ding this range may damage the CrashLink1 devices. The following figure shows the power distribution concept in KiHUB. Every loadable connector includes a 10 A fuse for system power segmentation/protection. DCDC Converter 13,2 V / 100 W output...
Do not mechanically damage the KiHUB In order to keep the battery operational, it is not necessa- ry to run any 'service cycle' or 'change cycle'. The KiHUB automatically charges the battery when needed by simply applying the operating power supply to the system.
2 second pulse in the rest and will be forwarded to ATDs. The following figure depicts the KiHUB trigger infrastructure. The EXT connector converts the differential T0 bus to a low active signal which is pulled with 8 kΩ to 15 V. SR on the EXT connector is referenced to GND.

Installation and operation 2.2.4.1 Trigger example Death, personal injury or damage to your KiHUB could re- sult from connecting the wrong voltage to the wrong pins of your KiHUB connectors. Be extremely careful that you connect the correct voltages to the correct connectors as specified in this manual.
Trigger output setup 2.2.4.2 SR trigger event when trailing cable is unplugged KiHUB provides the possibility to be configured for an SR trigger event generation when the trailing cable is un- plugged from the system. This option is selected using a DIP switch present in KiHUB hardware.
2.2.5.2 Configurable Ethernet HUB function KiHUB provides the possibility to be configured as a pseudo Ethernet hub instead of the default Ethernet switch function. In this mode the Ethernet packets received in a given port are sent to the rest of Ethernet ports without checking the Ethernet switch address translation table.

DS.4Not Used DS.1HUB/Switch DS.3Battery Runtime DS.2TC_SR_Disable Fig. 10: KiHUB DIP switch 2.3 Using KiHUB 2.3.1 Use case 1 In this mode KiHUB acts as Ethernet media converter and is powered by CrashLink1 interface.
Installation and operation 2.3.2 Use case 2 This is the typical use case of KiHUB where only CrashLink2 devices are used. The power is applied via trailing cable and the communication works at 100 MBit/s. Power Supply and Comm 20 … 60 V Fig.
CrashLink1 and CrashLink2 are safely powered within their specification. Power Supply and Comm 20 … 60 V Power Supply 20 … 36 V Fig. 13: KiHUB media converter and diode, CrashLink1 powered CrashLink2 powered (100 MBit/s). Vol- tage on CrashLink2 power must be higher than voltage on CrashLink1 power. Page 20 K3879BQ02_002-803e-12.20...
In this case the power supply voltage must be in the range defined by CrashLink1 specification (20 ... 36 V). An extra fuse must be added to KiHUB in order to allow the power bridging from CrashLink2 to CrashLink1. Such hardware modification should be done by your Kistler customer support team.
2.3.5 Use case 5 In case the EXT connector was ordered to supply other 12 V devices, then it must be connected as shown below. The KiHUB can then be supplied either through CrashLink1 or CrashLink2. Power Supply and Comm 20 …...
