Supplying Power to Devices Connected to the Unit
Cameras and most other peripherals connected to the MVG400 unit usually require independent power supplies.
These devices should be connected directly to the vehicle battery (or some other power source).
NOTE:
In some cases, it may be possible to provide power to certain devices through the
12VDC Power Out
connector on the rear panel of the MVG400. This option is not appropriate for supplying power to
cameras. For additional information, see
Using the 12VDC Power Out Connector
, page 38.
Turning the Device Power On and Off with the Ignition
Normally, the MVG400 is configured to shut down whenever the vehicle ignition is turned off. If you want
peripheral devices that are connected to the unit to shut down when the vehicle ignition is off, you should route their
power supplies through one of the activator connectors (
Out1
or
Out2
) on the MVG400 unit, as illustrated below.
