Figure 2.3 Schematic Diagram of SCOUT 2.0 Electrical Interface on Top
SCOUT 2.0 has an aviation extension interface both on top and at rear end, each of which is
configured with a set of power supply and a set of CAN communication interface. These interfaces
can be used to supply power to extended devices and establish communication. The specific
definitions of pins are shown in Figure 2.4.
It should be noted that, the extended power supply here is internally controlled, which means the
power supply will be actively cut off once the battery voltage drops below the pre-specified threshold
voltage. Therefore, users need to notice that SCOUT 2.0 platform will send a low voltage alarm before
the threshold voltage is reached and also pay attention to battery recharging during use.

2.2.2 Rear electrical interface
The extension interface at rear end is shown in Figure 2.5, where Q1 is the key switch as the main
electrical switch; Q2 is the recharging interface; Q3 is the power supply switch of drive system; Q4
is DB9 serial port; Q5 is the extension interface for CAN and 24V power supply; Q6 is the display of
battery voltage.
