Hardware Installation of the PinPoint X
The DC power cable positive lead should be connected to the battery or power source positive terminal. The power cable negative lead should be connected to the battery or power source negative terminal.
The battery cable used for a car, truck, or other mobile connection must be less than 3 meters in length.
The PinPoint X has an internal polysilicon circuit breaker that opens at 0.5 to 1.0 amps of current.
If you wish to use the Standby Ignition Sense (SISE) feature of your PinPoint X, the white wire of the three wire DC power cable should be used to connect to your ignition. When SISE is enabled in the modem and the ignition sense connector is wired to your vehicle, the ignition sense will provide a link to the modem to enable it to enter a low‐power, standby mode when your vehicle is turned off and power up more quickly when the ignition is started.

Figure 4-4: Ethernet
The Ethernet port of your PinPoint X can be connected directly to a computer or other Ethernet device with either a cross‐over cable or a straight‐through cable. The Ethernet port on the PinPoint X is auto‐sensing and will auto‐detect the speed of the connecting device for 100baseTX or 10baseT. If you are connecting the modem to a hub or switch you should use a straight through cable or use the uplink port on the hub or switch with a cross‐over cable.
