2.1.3 Power Supply Requirements
The SMART-AG requires +8 to +36 VDC for the input power to the receiver. See Page 59 for more
power supply specifications.
The SMART-AG cable provides power in (with a BATT+ label) and power ground (with a BATT-
label) bare wires for connections from the SMART-AG to a 12 to 24V vehicular power system (or
equivalent) protected by a 5A Fast Blow Fuse (user supplied). See its cable details starting on Page
63.
 The SMART-AG power source must be protected by a 5A Fast Blow Fuse or
damage to wiring may result (not covered by warranty).
If the voltage supplied is above or below the specified range, the receiver will
suspend operation. If the voltage supplied is above 48V, the receiver may be
permanently damaged, voiding your warranty.
