5. CONNECTING TO THE REEFER CONTROLLER
Safety Instructions
A screened cable must be used for the data cable.
Important Note
The total cable runs between tag and the monitored device must not exceed a total of 15 m. This is due to
limitations of the RS232 (EIA-232) standard.
Connecting the i-Q350 RCM to the controller
3 of the 5 connector pins are coded with a small edge to align correctly the plug and connector. The 2
connector pins which are not coded are longer to simplify identification. The data rate of the external device is
automatically detected.
Follow the process hereafter to connect the tag to the reefer controller.
Step 1
Align the male connector of the i-Q350
RCM tag to the female connector on
the reefer connector.
In order to align correctly the
connectors, use the indent and edges
highlighted on the pictures on the left.
Step 2
Connect the male connector to the
female connector.
Do not apply too much pressure since
the bayonet locking mechanism might
not be properly aligned.
