•others as specified.
Installation
Installation of the Faria Serial Bus system is accomplished as follows:
Gateway Box
The “gateway” box is the central unit of the system. As all of the senders and other information source peripherals connect to the “gateway”, the “gateway” box should be mounted in a protected area in the best location to provide the maximum cabling benefit.
The “gateway” box power cable must be installed to allow connection to “battery positive” (always on), “battery negative” (ground), and a source of “switched power” which turns on with the engine ignition switch (see Figure 1 and Table 1).
The “Faria Bus” cable must be routed from the “gateway” box to the instrument panel area to connect the instruments to the data bus and instrument power (see Figure 2).
The remainder of the connections to the “gateway” box are described below.
Instruments
The instruments are mounted using the provided
Each additional instrument is connected to the previous instrument using one of the 12” bus connection cables. The cable may be connected to either of the two connectors provided on the instrument case (see Figure 2).
