This technical description outlines the procedures for integrating additional controls into equipment using specific connector configurations. The process varies slightly depending on whether your machine uses a 14-pin or an 8-pin connector, with solutions tailored to specific equipment brands such as Kubota, Cat, Terex, and ASV.
14-Pin Connector Application (e.g., Kubota):
- Locate the main connector on the machine and open it to access pin positions.
- For Kubota, you will typically use pins E & F or G & H. Insert the additional control pins directly into these positions.
- For other brands with 14-pin connectors, inspect the availability of pins E, F, G, or H and install your control pins into any open positions. Ensure that only these designated pins are used for added controls.
8-Pin Connector Application (e.g., Cat, Terex, ASV):
- Recognize that 8-pin connectors do not have sufficient space for additional control pins.
- Instead, leave the additional control wire pair external to the main connector assembly.
- Utilize the provided 2-pin housing to encase this wire pair.
- Connect this external 2-pin housing to the supplied mating connector at the attachment end.
- Each time the attachment is used, connect both the 8-pin and 2-pin connectors to ensure proper functionality.
This procedure outlines a cost-effective solution to accommodate attachment controls, making it feasible without extensive connector modifications.
