Publish Date: 9/02/2015 CIRCUITLINK.COM.AU 15 Installation To make full use of the internal accelerometer and gyroscope, the T5 must be firmly mounted with any of its axis perpendicular to the direction of travel. Under Seat Mounting Care should be taken when securing the T5 under seating in vehicles. Make sure the unit and its cables are properly mounted away from any passengers and moving parts. Caution - Care should be taken when drilling into the floor of any vehicle as there may be wiring or parts on the other side. - When mounting on the driver’s side of the vehicle, it is extremely important to ensure that the T5 is secured and cannot interfere with the safe operation of the vehicle - Do not expose the T5 or any of its peripherals to temperatures outside of 0°C - 80°C Cabinet / Panel Mounting Although we design our equipment to operate in IP rated environments, we recommend when the unit is not installed within the cabin of a vehicle that it be placed in a protected area. Avoid mounting equipment and cabling where it may come in contact with moving parts and liquids as it will reduce its lifespan and reliability. Different design configurations will change the IP rating depending on the front panel connectors. For more information, contact Circuitlink. Firmly secure the unit with bolts M5 or equivalent, using washers to distribute force evenly. Cable ties may be used for temporary mounting and should be firmly tightened. Do not use double sided tape or any permanent adhesives. Dashbox Secure the Dashbox unit within the reach of the operator careful for it not to interfere with the operation of the vehicle. Avoid placing the Dashbox where it could be exposed to weather as it does not have the same protection as the EDR. T5 Standard External OBDII (PN 3400123) The J1962 interconnect harness is designed to integrate with the existing diagnostic port and piggyback off it. 1. Locate and unscrew the existing connector from its mounting position. Typically it will be located within 1m of the drivers position however may differ based on the make and model. 2. Connect the wiring assembly to the vehicles socket and mount the piggyback extension in the existing position. 3. Secure the connection between the vehicles J1962 socket and the harness by using a cable tie around the housings. 4. Tidy cabling by securing excess wires away, careful not to kink or allow them to become tangled.

Publish Date: 9/02/2015 CIRCUITLINK.COM.AU 16 Connecting the T5 Caution - The vehicle should be turned off when disconnecting any connectors on the T5 - Ensure when inserting the Samtec connector it is plugged in straight to avoid damaging the fine pitched pins within the connector. Warning Only use cable assemblies described in this guide. Using assemblies for other models may damage the unit and other equipment on the vehicle. 1. Attach and firmly tighten the SMA connectors for the GPS, GSM and WIFI antennas. When antennas are not in use it is recommended to keep the antenna attached or use (PN 3400139 - SMA plug cap) to protect the connector from dust and water. 2. With power to the unit disconnected, connect the I/O cables from the unit to the vehicle. Removing the Face Plate For any reason you are required to remove the T5 from its housing either to change SIM cards or as directed by Circuitlink, you must follow these steps. For best results, use PN 5991111611 available from Cinch. 1. With power to the unit disconnected, remove the I/O and antenna cables from the T5. 2. If possible, remove the T5 from where it is mounted as you need access to all sides. 3. With a small flat blade screw driver, gently release the one of the side tabs and let it balance without re-seating. Starting from the top of the case, prise each of the tabs along the top, then along the bottom to release the face plate. 4. Finally release the last side tab and gently slide the unit from the case. 5. When re-inserting the unit, make sure there are no internal wires caught and gently press the face plate back into the housing making sure not to damage the rubber sealing gasket until all the tabs click into place. Warning Do not place the PCB on any conductive or wet surfaces. Where possible, follow steps to protect against ESD damage. Improper removal of the face plate will compromise its IP rating and reliability of the device

Publish Date: 9/02/2015 CIRCUITLINK.COM.AU 17 Loading Fleet Configuration File Configuration files use the .PV2 file extension. Fleet and Dynamic configuration files hold different variables for each device. Fleet contain parameters required to set how the data recorder operates. This can be anything from accelerometer configuration to CAN/OBD packet settings. The process and handling of configuration files in the EDR and Remote Accelerometer is different due to the differences in firmware and flash storage architecture. As the Remote Accelerometer is a transducer that does not store any data, the available storage to hold configuration files is only a few kilobytes. Because of this, it will not hold multiple copies of the same file like how the EDR operates. Do not delete or modify the Device configuration file. This file is required for the device to operate Event Data Recorder The process for updating configuration is the same for all event data recorders regardless of the firmware version or family. 1. Connect the T5 to power and allow it to boot up. 2. Connect a USB cable from the T5 to your PC 3. Open My Computer and navigate to the removable storage device with the label that of the T5 4. Place the desired configuration file in the PARAMS. 5. Disconnect the USB to reinitialise the device Remote Accelerometer The Remote Accelerometer will only hold one fleet configuration file in its internal storage at any time. 1. Connect the RA to power and allow it to boot up. 2. Connect a USB cable from the RA to your PC 3. Open My Computer and navigate to the removable storage device with the label that of the RA 4. Place the desired configuration file in the root of the drive. The device will reinitialise and process the file. A status file will be present in the drive indicating if the update was successful. 5. Disconnect the USB to reinitialise the device A completed unit ready for use.
