Clock is output from the connector. Use the attached antenna. This connector is for inputting speed pulse and reverse signal Matching Housing: Molex 51065-0300 3 pin Matching Pin contact: 50212-8000 RS-232C Communication Supply power from USB USB port for power supply and communication between the evaluation kit and PC of customer side Main power ON/OFF switch 4 CAR I/F This chapter describes about the pin assignment of CAR I/F connector and the electrical specifications of the speed pulse and the reverse signal. When the signals are distributed and used, it is necessary to be careful since a signal level decrease may occur by the influence of other circuits. 4.1 CAR I/F #1 Figure 4-1 CAR I/F Pin # 1 Name SPEED I/O I 2 BACK I 3 GND - Table 4-1 Pin assignment of CAR I/F port Description Speed pulse Reverse signal input L:Forward H:Reverse Ground 3 Note VN-87x/VN-88x Startup Manual SE19-710-002-00 4.2 Speed Pulse When using the vehicle speed pulse, input the vehicle speed pulse suitable for the specifications in Table 4.2. When distributing signals and use them, be careful to use because signal levels may drop due to the influence of other circuits.
