Please observe the following guidelines for set-up:
• Power supply lines should only be passed in pairs as close together as
possible.
• Sensitive signal lines should be shielded to achieve highest possible damping,
and under this shielding they should still be passed twisted.
• Metal plug connections should be used for shielded lines.
• Cable bundles should be distributed in accordance with their purpose (e.g. HF,
LG, and power supply); the groups thus formed should not be routed in
parallel to the extent possible, and they should be routed with clearance.
The OPUS A6 2
nd
generation relies on a connection to an ECU that controls the
functions and features of the target vehicle/machine.

4.3.2 Power Supply
The unit may be used with the 12 V and for 24 Volt battery systems, operating
voltage range of 9-36 VDC. The overvoltage resistance is about 48V for 2 minutes.
Inverse-polarity protection is up to -48 V DC.
4.4 First steps
Plug in the main connector into the OPUS A6 2
nd
generation. Then connect the
clamps 15 and 30 for the plus voltage, as well as clamps for GND and CarGND for
the ground. Switch on the Power supply.
On start the boot-logo image will be displayed on the screen. This may be exchanged
with the customer specific image (please refer to C/C++ Developer Guide for more
information).
The boot up takes about 3 minutes and will call the application according to the start
scripts on the unit (start scripts for Projektor Tool and CODESYS application already
installed by delivery).
The application displays the information of the required application software version.
CODESYS application also contains a simple function test. Each newly downloaded
application will replace the old one automatically.
Penetrating humidity by unused and unprotected plugs may
cause damage of the unit. Please protect unused plugs with the
special blind inserts that have been supplied with the units.
The ECU must be the component in charge of all safety related
functions.
Wrong connection may cause damage of the unit.
