H1/5 Blue (-) Instant Trigger/Mercury Tilt Switch Input; H1/6; H1/7 - Directed Electronics MERLIN 2000 Installation Manual

H1/5 BLUE (-) instant trigger/mercury tilt switch input (for motorcycle installations)
Connect this wire to one of the mercury tilt switches' wires. Connect the other tilt switch wire to battery ground.
(These wires are interchangeable.) The mercury should only bridge the contacts if the motorcycle is tilted off its
stand. A negative (-) input to this wire will cause an instant trigger, which will report on Zone 1.
H1/6 and H1/14 WHITE (+) light flash outputs
Only one of these wires will need to be used (they are interchangeable) if the motorcycle (or recreational vehicle)
has a front running light. The wire should be connected to the (+) parking light wire, as described in the Finding
the Wires You Need section of this manual. These outputs are protected with 7.5 amp fuses. Never increase the
value of the light flash fuse. If more current is required, use an external relay.
NOTE: Many motorcycles and recreational vehicles do not have front running lights. If the vehicle
does not have a front running light, you may want to use the separate left and right turn signal
circuits for flash purposes. Note that the on-board light flash relay has two isolated outputs (H1/6
WHITE and H1/14 WHITE) which are provided for this reason. (See the following diagram.)
H1/7 RED (+) 12V constant power
IMPORTANT! This should be the LAST connection of your installation.
We recommend connecting this wire to the positive (+) battery terminal for power, as described in the Finding
the Wires You Need section of this manual. This is a vital connection for the system, so it must be solid and well
insulated. The harness must be unplugged from the control module. Use the supplied fuseholder, and don't forget
to put the 15A fuse in after everything else is connected! Before connecting this wire, remove the supplied fuse.
