2.7 DCP INSTALLATION
The Driver Control Panel (DCP) is used to turn the heater on and off, set heater
temperature and can be programmed to start the heater at predetermined
times. The DCP provides a wealth of information including current temperature,
heater power level, current time and diagnostic codes.
Location
See section 2.8 on wiring for information regarding connecting the DCP to the
heater and the vehicle’s ignition.
Choose a location that is within the desired heating area and is easily
accessible by the user.
For sleeper cabs, install in the sleeper, close to the driver’s head for easy
access and heat regulation.
For day cabs, install on or near the dash within easy reach of the driver.
The driver control panel is designed for surface mounting and does not
require the drilling of any holes however, a small hole is required if hidden
wiring is desired.
Check behind the mounting location panel to ensure there is adequate room
for the connectors and wire harness.
Drill a 3/4" (19 mm) hole in the panel to push the DCP connectors through.
Using the template in section 6.5 mount the DCP to the panel using the
supplied Velcro ® Adhesive strips.
