To ensure that the connection is correct, we recommend testing
the system before it is put into service. There are three simple
steps as described below:
After proper installation, pair the xFOB and the xHUB as
described below. The xHUB remembers the 20 last paired
xFOBs. Pairing saves the ID of xFOBs in the memory of the
xHUB. Pairing is only done the first time you use an xFOB with
an xHUB. Remember, only one xFOB can be connected to an
xHUB at the time acting as a kill switch.
Pairing is only necessary the first time you use
your MOB+™. Press and hold the button on your
xHUB™.
HOLD 3 SEC
Click the button on your xFOB to connect.
CONNECT
Start your engine.
START ENGINE
Now you can try and stop your engine in two
separate ways.
Both described methods are equal in terms of
testing stop functionality.
TEST THE MOB+
Immediately after releasing the button on the
xHUB™, press and hold the button on your
xFOB™.
HOLD 3 SEC
Click the button on your xFOB to connect.

Click the xFOB to stop the engine
-The system will now shut down the engine and disconnect the wireless system.
DISCONNECT
Submerge the xFOB in the sea or the ocean more than 4 inches.
-The system will now go into ManOverBoard mode and shut down the engine.
After 6 seconds the xHUB will go into override mode. Press the xHUB or xFOB
to disconnect the wireless system.

A bucket of water
is not sufficient to
test the functionality
of MOB+. Test the
system in the sea or
ocean/lake.
Release the button when the xHUB™ starts
flashing blue and gives a sound signal indicating
Pairing Mode.
BLUE LIGHT
The xHUB™ will give a sound signal and a green
light to indicate a successfull pairing.
GREEN LIGHT
The xHUB™ will give a sound signal and a green
light to indicate a successful connection.

IMPORTANT
We recommend that the installation of the
MOB+ in your boat is performed by skilled
personnel familiar with electric wiring, or by
a professional mechanic or electrician. This
is to prevent any malfunction of the device
related to installation.

INSTALLING MOB+ IN A METAL BOAT
xFOB BATTERY
If your helm is made out of conducting materials the wireless signals from
MOB+ may be degraded. The amount of signal degradation experienced
may vary from across boats and must be tested for each case. If the signal
is very poor you can install a separate external antenna outside of your
helm to increase the signal strength. Please contact FELL support at www.
fellmarine.com/support for more information.
xHUB battery symbol displays the battery status
of the connected xFOB. Each bar respectively
indicates 10 %, 40 %, 70 % and 100 % of battery
life. xFOB battery life: 300h active use. Change the
battery within 15 hours when the last bar blinks on
the battery indicator.
FELL recommends using Panasonic or Sony
CR2032 coin cell batteries.
The installation is simple and below you will find a
quick guide. See next page for wiring instructions.

Connect the signal wires to the
existing kill switch wires and the
power wires to power.
YOUR ENGINE
Drill a 2-1/16” / 52mm hole in a
suitable place adjacent to the
drivers position.
2-1/16” / 52MM HOLE
Insert the xHUB™ to the pre-
drilled hole and tighten the nut.
MOUNT xHUB
Connect the cables and the
antenna to the xHUB™.
CABLE & ANTENNA
!
Place the xHUB with the
antenna at least
~ 10” / 30cm from other
electronics equipment
transmitting EMI. The
antenna should be in as free
space as possible, but where
necesssary it can be bent up
to 45 degrees.

INSTALLATION
IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE ENGINES: SEE BELOW
RECONNECT AND RESTART THE ENGINE BEFORE TESTING SUBMERSION
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC
performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of
these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions
for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location,
always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items
of electrical equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever
possible:
FELL equipment and the cables connected to it are:
•
At least 3 ft (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.
In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased
to 7 ft (2 m).
•
More than 7 ft (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above
and below the radiating element.
•
If possible the product is supplied from a separate battery
from that used for engine start. Power supply voltages
below the minimum specified 7V power source, and starter
motor transients, can cause the product to reset. This will
not damage the product, but may cause inability to start the
engine.
•
FELL specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these
cables can compromise EMC performance and must be
avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
