Cables and Wiring
Wiring power to the Envizio Pro or Viper Pro field computer, Switch Pro switch box, and the CAN nodes is
especially important for proper operation of the system. Many issues can be corrected by diagnosing and fixing
problems related to improper wiring of the power and ground.
Best Wiring Practices
•
Console power should be wired to a controlled clean power source.
•
All ground wires must be connected directly to the battery ground. DO NOT use a chassis ground.
High current power is supplied to the Switch Pro through the existing SCS console cable.
•
Make sure the red power lead is connected to the machine’s positive battery terminal.
•
Make sure the white ground lead is connected to the machine’s negative battery terminal.
Note:
If an existing Raven SCS 440, 450, 4400 system has not previously been installed prior to
purchase of the Switch Pro system, additional cabling and hardware will be required when
installing the Switch Pro system. Please contact a local dealer for specific flow control components
required and installation assistance.
