SPLICINGT-Taps are not a suitable form of splicing into existing cabling. All splices must be soldered and glued. Heat shrink must be used for protection.2. POWERPower connections should be made directly to the battery and fused as close to the battery as possible. Avoid using a cigarette lighter or “Power Point” receptacles as power sources. Trapeze does not recommend wiring power directly to a vehicle kill switch because the Ranger will not power down correctly. Appropriate fuses are pro-vided with the installation equipment.3. GROUNDThe ground point should be that point where the (-) terminal from the battery is connected to the body. This connection to the battery is typically a 6 or 8 AWG black wire connected to the wheelhouse or radiator support. Do not fuse the ground lead. If the ground-side fuse were to open, the entire sup-ply current would be conducted by an alternate current return path, which may cause the feed line to overheat possibly resulting in damage. 4. SWITCHED IGNITION POWERIt is important to utilize an unused ignition point. Connecting to an ignition point that is currently being used to switch other devices can cause improper operation of those devices.There are two methods for interfacing to the vehicle ignition. If neither of these options are possible, then contact your Trapeze representative and alternate ignition options can be discussed and approved.Itishighlypreferabletondanignitionsourcethatgoeshighonlywhentheengine is actually on. If this source cannot be found, an ignition source that goes high only when the ignition is in the ON position is the next recommended source.A) AUXILIARY ELECTRICAL PANEL (PREFERRED) Many bus manufacturers will include an auxiliary electrical panel for interfacing periph-eral devices. Below is an example of a common location in buses with a Ford chassis. One of these terminals will typically be a switched ignition point. A ring terminal should be used when connecting to this type of ignition interface point. Ask the local mainte-nance personnel if you need assistance to find this panel.CONNECTION POINTS
15TRADE SECRET. Trapeze Proprietary and Confidential. © 2013 Trapeze Software ULC, its subsidiaries and affiliates. All rights reserved. B) FUSE PANELAn unused ignition activated position in the fuse panel is another option. This instal-lation requires an Add-A-Circuit fuse holder as pictured below. It is not acceptable to use a “fuse sleeve”CONNECTION POINTSExample of an Auxiliary Electrical Panel on a Ford VanC) VSS (VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR FOR ODOMETER PULSES) OPTIONAL Most installations will utilize the Ranger GPS receiver for mileage tracking, however in some cases a wired odometer connection may be required. Many vehicles have a VSS point which provides a pulse train from the transmission. Vehicles that do not have a VSS point with adequate signal characteristics will require the installation of a transducer. It is the responsibility of the installer and customer to locate a VSS point or determine the appropriate location for a transducer. Your Trapeze representative may be able to assist in locating suitable VSS point. He/She can also provide information on the type of signal that is required for accurate odometer tracking.Add-A-Circuit Installation
16 TRADE SECRET. Trapeze Proprietary and Confidential. © 2013 Trapeze Software ULC, its subsidiaries and affiliates. All rights reserved. 6. EMERGENCY SWITCH (OPTIONAL) The emergency switch is usually installed somewhere that would allow for covert operation. This location needs to be chosen by the customer prior to the start of installation. Trapeze will provide a switch if one is required. It is sometimes possible to use an existing switch already on the vehicle. A Trapeze Vehicle Specialist will provide details for your specific requirements. The emergency switch is typically installed on the lower left side of the driver seat. Always ensure that the connector on the emergency switch pigtail is strain reliefed off the floor to prevent shorts if water enters the connector.Add-A-Circuit InstallationCONNECTION POINTS

ROUTINGa) Use caution when routing wires between the passenger and engine compartments toavoidchangorpinchingthewires.Usegrommetsoveranyexposedsharpedgesand strain reliefs to keep wires in place. Seal all holes to prevent moisture intrusion.b) Route and secure all under-hood wiring away from mechanical hazards such as exhaust manifolds and moving parts.c) Maintain as great a distance as possible between mobile radio power leads and the vehicle’s electronic modules and wiring. Avoid running power leads in parallel with vehicle wiring over long distances.d) If cabling is routed under the instrument panel, be sure that there is no interfer-ence with proper operation of the foot controls.2. STRAIN RELIEF Ensure that there is no strain exerted on cable connectors where they enter the unit. Avoid placing the unit in a position where the cable connectors entering the back of the unit are under pressure or strain of any kind. Ensure the power cable is fully inserted before replacing the cable cover. In the event of undue stress or strain on installed cables and connectors, permanent damage may occur imparing the connections. This may result in intermittent or complete loss of communication and or power. Always include strain relief every 2-3 feet on long cable runs. As the Ranger can be tilted and rotated freely by the driver/user, cabling should be installed such that moving/adjusting the position of the unit does not exert any signicantstressonthecables.3. LABELING It is important to always label cabling at connection points. This simplifies mainte-nance in the future. Using cables with consistent coloring will also make mainte-nance easier.
