1Quick ReferenceIntroductionThe SAIC In-Vehicle Control Unit (ICU) is a rugged computer developed by Symbol for SAIC, and used as a platform for in-vehicle communications. It provides wireless network communications and two serial ports.The ICU uses an 80386 processor and supports an MS-DOS Operating System using industry standard protocols. About This GuideThis manual describes the ICU’s basic features. Specific topics include:•Parts of an ICU on page 2•Basic Operation on page 3-Indicator Lights on page 3-Ports and Connectors on page 4-Resetting the ICU on page 5•Driver Alert Features on page 6•Basic Troubleshooting on page 8•Service Information on page 10Figure 1. ICU with Access Denial Cover in Place
2ICU TerminalParts of an ICUSymbol PartsThe ICU has these parts and features provided by Symbol:• 2 MB of DRAM, expandable to 4MB• 2 MB Flash Drive, expandable to 8MB• RS-232 COM1 serial port• In-Vehicle Alert (IVA) port• 2 RAT Key Fobs• Connectors for RAT, GPS and BSWD antennas• Access Denial Cover• Quick Reference GuideSAIC PartsThe ICU also requires these parts provided by SAIC:• RAT, GPS and BSWD antennas and cables• Power Input cable with 2 fuses• IVA cables• Manufacturing Mode cable for communication with a PC• Ground cable required for installation• Fasteners required for installationICU SoftwareThe ICU terminal runs SAIC custom software from a DOS Operating System.
3Quick ReferenceBasic OperationIndicator LightsA standard ICU terminal runs as a stand-alone device, with no keyboard or display. The front panel has eight LED indicator lights on that provide this status information (read from left to right): Figure 2.

4ICU TerminalPorts and ConnectorsThe connector panel of the ICU unit has two ports, a power connector, the RAT programming button and three antenna connectors. The table describes these ports and connectors.Figure 3. ICU Ports and Connectors (SAIC model)Connector FunctionCOM1 An RS-232 serial port with a 9-pin connector that can be used to communicate with devices such as laptop PCs. It connects to an RS-232 port on a Host PC using a specialized null modem cable. IVA A connector for the In-Vehicle Alert (IVA) cable. 12 VDC The Power Input cable plugs into this connector to provides power to the unit. RAT Programming ButtonA recessed button that allows you to program the Remote Alert Transmitter (RAT).

5Quick ReferenceResetting the ICUIf the ICU stops responding, or stops receiving and sending data, you may need to reset it. The Reset button is a recessed switch located on the front panel, to the right of the LEDs. To reset the unit, press and hold the Reset switch for more than one second, and then release it. Te m p e r a t u r eOperating Temperature range: -20°C to +60°CStorage Temperature range: -40°C to +70°C
6ICU TerminalDriver Alert FeaturesEach ICU unit has a Remote Alert Transmitter (RAT). The RAT is a device that allows vehicle drivers to send a message if they need immediate assistance. There are two ways for a driver to trigger an alert:• In-Vehicle Alert button (IVA)• RAT Wireless Key Fob buttonFigure 4. Driver Alert OptionsSending an AlertWhen the driver triggers an alert, the ICU immediately wakes up and sets a bit in Port 211 so that the software can transmit an alert. The table below describes the two methods for a driver to send a RAT alarm. Alarm Type How to Send It RequirementsIVA Press one of the IVA buttons that are directly wired into the ICU unit: one in the vehicle cab, and one in the back of the truck.The driver must be in the cab or the back of the vehicle.RAT Key FobPress the button on the RAT Key Fob. Driver must be within 150 feet of the vehicle, and within line of sight.IVA Cableand ButtonRAT Key Fob
7Quick ReferenceProgramming the Remote Alert Transmitter (RAT)The ICU must be programmed to recognize a transmission from a wireless RAT Key Fob. Each vehicle driver will have a RAT Key Fob. Programming a RAT ButtonTo program the ICU to recognize a particular RAT Key Fob:1. Remove the Access Denial Cover to get access to the RAT Pro-gramming button located on the ICU connector panel.2. Press and release the RAT Programming button on the ICU. Use a pen tip or similar object to press the recessed button. On the front panel, the LED for the RAT will show a solid light, indicating that the terminal is in Learn mode.3. When you see the solid RAT LED, you have 10 seconds to press the Key Fob button in this sequence:a. Press and release the RAT Key Fob button.b. Press and hold the RAT Key Fob button until the RAT LED indicator starts to blink on the ICU.4. The blinking light shows that the RAT Key Fob has been suc-cessfully programmed. It will trigger a RAT alarm if a driver presses the RAT button on the Key Fob.Deleting a RAT ButtonThis procedure deletes the programming information for all RAT Key Fobs programmed into an ICU:1. Remove the Access Denial Cover to get access to the RAT Pro-gramming button located on the back panel of the ICU.2. Press and hold the RAT Programming button on the ICU. Use a pen tip or similar object to press the recessed button. On the front panel, the RAT LED shows a solid light.3. Wait for the RAT LED to turn off. Then release the RAT Pro-gramming button.4. All programming information has now been deleted from the ICU. Pressing a RAT Key Fob button will not trigger an alert. Note that this does not affect the IVA Alert buttons.
8ICU TerminalBasic TroubleshootingThis table provides guidelines for troubleshooting some basic problems on the ICU. If you cannot solve the problem using these guidelines, please contact Customer Service for advanced troubleshooting and repair.Problem ActionTerminal does not start.Make sure the External Power cable is connected to the ICU terminal and to a vehicle power source. Check the vehicle battery. If it is depleted (dead), re-place the vehicle battery.Make sure the Vehicle Accessory Power (ACC) wire is connected to a switched 12 VDC Power Source. If it is not, then vehicle ignition will not wake the terminal.In-Vehicle Alert (IVA) does not work.Make sure the IVA cable has not come unplugged from the ICU terminal . Make sure neither of the IVA buttons has been stuck in the “on” position. If this happens, it prevents either IVA cable or the RAT Key Fob buttons from working.Check for obvious problems with the cable, or with the ICU hardware.Remote Alert (RAT) does not work.Make sure the terminal has been programmed to work with the RAT Key Fob. Clear the RAT Programming from the ICU. Then reprogram it with the existing RAT Key Fob. See page 7 for instructions. The RAT Key Fob may be faulty. Repeat the program-ming process with a new RAT Key Fob. Make sure neither of the IVA buttons has been stuck in the “on” position. If this happens, it prevents either IVA cable or the RAT Key Fob buttons from working.
9Quick ReferenceGPS data is miss-ing or incorrect.Make sure the GPS antenna cable is in good condition, and connected securely to the terminal.The vehicle may be in an area where there is poor GPS coverage (e.g., parkades, tunnels, deep valleys or areas with many tall buildings). There may be a problem with either the software, or with the GPS radio. Contact Customer Service for ad-vanced troubleshooting and repair.Terminal is not receiving data or transmitting data (BSWD and RAT radios).Make sure the antenna cables are in good condition, and connected securely to the terminal.Check to see if there are problems on the network. You may be in an area of poor coverage. Drive to an area where you know the radio coverage is adequate.There may be a problem with either the software, or with an internal radio.
