Power Supply

VBOX 100 Hz Speed Sensor units are powered via the POWER IN lead or the CAN OUT + POWER lead on the supplied loom. You can use the RLCAB010LE cable to connect to a 12 V ouput point in a vehicle or you can use a battery pack (RLACS333-L).

IMPORTANT

The maximum operating voltage input must not exceed 30 V DC. Failure to observe this could result in damage to the VBOX unit.
The cable looms and unit connectors are colour coded. It is important that you use a loom with a colour marker that corresponds with the colour marker on the unit's connector. The VBOX 100 Hz GPS Speed Sensor (v5) has a yellow colour marker.

VBOX Speed Sensors have been designed to generate as little heat as possible and has a wide operating temperature range. It is, however, good practice to mount it in a position where it has sufficient airflow around the unit.
