Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 72 Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide Your K530 is designed for rugged vehicle use with MIL810G compliance, please review and consider the guidelines below for optimal vehicle installation. Overview A stable power supply and secure mounting are essential to ensure that your K530 operates properly. However, getting a stable power supply from an operating vehicle can be a major challenge due to constantly changing vehicle and environmental conditions. Furthermore, different circuit loadings as a result of vehicle operation and use of its onboard electronic products can cause the raw voltage supplied by a vehicle’s battery to vary largely. Therefore, unless modified, a vehicle’s electrical system is generally quite unreliable for onboard electrical equipment. There are two basic types of voltage supply problems in a vehicle. One is called brown-out, and the other is called transient voltage. Brown out usually occurs during the start of the engine. In general, when a car engine starts, the spark plug draws a significant stream of instantaneous electrical power from the car’s battery (ultra high
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 73 instantaneous electrical current in terms of hundreds of cranking amps or more) which leaves insufficient energy for other electrical equipment on the vehicle. Therefore, the voltage supplied to all other electrical equipment drops to a significantly lower level than what is normal. It is only after such an instantaneous high demand of electrical power that the voltage level on the vehicle returns to normal. The diagram below demonstrates the brown-out phenomenon during the engine’s startup. Transient voltages, sometimes known as spikes, are very noticeable positive or negative voltage changes over a short period of time. Such voltage fluctuations may be occasional or may be periodic. They are typically caused by interference from electrical-mechanical components in a vehicle (such as alternators, electric windows and door locks, light switches, loose or corroded connectors or battery terminals, etc.), or even from additional electrical equipment connected to the vehicle’s electrical power system. Without treatment, sharp spikes are a potential threat to your K530 as well as other electrical equipment on the vehicle. The diagram below shows some standardized examples of automotive voltage transients (ISO-7637-2):
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 74 In cases of undesirable voltage transients or brown-outs, your K530 is designed to handle large voltage swings from 9V to 32V. However, for optimal use and proper protection of your K530, it is necessary to regulate the input voltage before feeding it to the power input of your K530. There are two ways to regulate electrical voltage. One way is to implement a power management block that harnesses battery power during engine startup. The other, more effective, way is to implement a power management block with filters that further smooth out residual spikes. Installation General Guidelines Follow these guidelines for optimal installation of your K530 in a vehicle: • Place the router as close as possible to the voltage regulators, such as power management block and filters. Use short power cables to keep the distance short between the router and the output connectors of the voltage regulators.
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 75 • Use proper wire size according to the expected current load. AWG Rating Electric Current Load (Amps) 10-Feet Cable 20-Feet Cable 3-10 14 AWG 12 AWG 11-20 14 AWG 10 AWG 21-35 8 AWG 6 AWG • A dedicated ground wire is highly recommended instead of direct attachment to chassis ground. NOTE: To minimize noise interference, a filter can be applied isolating the router from other electrical devices. Mounting To ensure that your K530 is securely mounted, 4 screws can be applied as shown in the figure below. In addition to electrical requirements, also consider temperature factors when choosing a location for mounting your K530. If problems caused by vibration are noticeable, anti-vibration rubber grommets may be used to reduce shock on your K530. Also avoid mounting your K530 near an area that is subject to extreme heat, such as
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 76 a poorly ventilated spot that is either near the engine or is prone to direct sunlight. Basic Power Management In this type of installation, voltage is regulated solely on the power management block, which routes battery power to the ignition switch during engine startup while rendering conditioned output DC power to the vehicle’s electrical parts. First connect the long red positive power cable to the input of the power management block. Then connect the conditioned positive power output to your K530. On the ground side, connect the ground from your K530 to the ground of the power management block and the ground of the battery.
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 77 Power Management with a Filter In this type of installation, voltage is regulated in two parts. The first part is on the power management block, which routes battery power to the ignition switch during engine startup while rendering conditioned output DC power to the vehicle’s electrical parts. First connect the long red positive power cable to the input of the power management block. Then connect the conditioned positive power output to your K530. On the ground side, connect the ground from your K530 to the ground of the power management block and the ground of the battery. The second part further conditions power voltage via the use of a filter, which helps further smooth out residual transients left over by the power management block. There are three types of filters: capacitor, inductor, and Pi. A capacitor reduces transients by temporarily storing electrical energy in an electrostatic field and gradually releasing them over time. The inductor reduces transients by temporarily storing some electrical energy in a magnetic field and gradually releasing them over time. The Pi filter reduces transients using a specially designed RLC circuit, which combines the function of both capacitors and inductors by utilizing the transient-reducing characteristics of both types of filters.
Appendix A: Vehicle Installation Guide 78 Though any of the three types of filters will do the job, the Pi filter is the recommended choice, because it combines the advantages of both capacitor and inductor filters.
Appendix B: FAQ 79 Appendix B: FAQ Q: What should I know and how long does it take when I upgrade the firmware of router or modem? A: 1. While upgrading the firmware requires some time to finish. During that, you MUST NOT turn off the power or interrupt the progress. 2. You may use an Ethernet cable or a wireless connection to upgrade the firmware. We suggest the use of an Ethernet cable. 3. It may take 2 minutes to upgrade the firmware of the router and 5 minutes to upgrade the firmware of the modem. 4. When the firmware of the modem is upgrading, the UMTS LED will flash among Blue-Green-Red. You should wait until the LED is in single color (about 4-5 minutes). Q: How do I connect to the router? A: 1. Connect an Ethernet cable between PC/Notebook (NB) and the router. 2. Use WiFi to connect. Q: What’s the default “User name” and “Password” for the router?

These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: - Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Appendix D: Important Safety Information and Glossary 92 This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference and 2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
