Key Features
The 1510-FO01 is a mine bar and handbrake alarm module programmed for a select number of Ford and Volkswagen vehicles. It also includes an optional canopy door alarm and accessories output which can switch with ACC and ignition so it switches with the factory key. With just 4 points of contact, this makes for a perfect and seamless solution for mine-spec and fleet-spec vehicles.
CAN-H, CAN-L, power and ground.
Reads the vehicle's signals directly from the CAN-Bus, so there's no need to splice into individual light, brake or reverse circuits. Connect to a fused permanent 12V supply and a good ground point.
12V+ outputs for lights, brakes, reverse and indicators.
Dedicated outputs for reverse, foot brake, park lights, high beam, and left and right indicators with hazards. Each output supplies 2.3A with all six active and is protected against short circuit and over-temperature.
Positive or negative triggering.
Potential-free contacts can switch a positive or ground signal. Relay 1 drives the handbrake and canopy alarm, and Relay 2 provides an accessory (ACC) output. Rated to 2A, each relay circuit requires an inline fuse.
For a handbrake switch or canopy doors.
Ground-triggered inputs, set with the dipswitches. Trigger 1 (IN1) connects to the handbrake lever switch on manual handbrake vehicles, as electric handbrakes are read from the CAN-Bus. Trigger 2 (IN2) connects to a canopy door switch.
What the 1510-FO01 delivers
1.Reads the Vehicle
Connects to the vehicle's CAN-Bus and reads the signals you need, with no cutting into factory lighting circuits.
2.Matched to Your Application
Configured specifically to suit Ford and Volkswagen vehicles, ensuring to function seamlessly with some of the most popular mine-spec and fleet-spec vehicles.
3.Park Brake Alarm Ready
Can warn the driver when a door or canopy door is opened with the park brake off.
4.Ready for Future Vehicles
Configuration and firmware can be updated, so the 1510 keeps up as new vehicles are added.
