Why MCP200 Makes Companies More Efficient

• Companies can maintain two-way contact with their vehicles and drivers 24 hours a day.

• Dispatchers can send pickup and delivery information directly to drivers, keeping vehicles
on the road.

• Text-to-speech alerts drivers of incoming messages and their importance, so drivers can
choose to immediately listen to messages without pulling off the road.

• Dispatchers know when vehicles are expected to arrive at locations, and can pass that
information on to customers.

• Provides dispatchers with vehicle location and position history information by tracking the
location of each MCP200 using latitude and longitude or distance and direction from
landmarks (usually large towns and cities).

• Drivers can inform the dispatcher of road conditions or problems.

• Optional devices allow monitoring of driver performance, engine diagnostics, trailer
locations, and refrigeration status.

DO NOT COPY

• Decision support software enables customers to optimize assets and inform shippers and
consignees of load status.

• Over-the-air software upgrades allow drivers to remain on the road rather than having to
stop at service centers.

• Display interface unit 200 (DIU200) provides a color graphical display, with a sliding
keyboard that integrates touchscreen functionality, extended temperature range, and
improved clarity for delivering critical information to drivers.

• Hours of service data ensures regulatory compliance.

• On-board navigation application provides truck-specific route mappings.

• International Fuel Tax Agreement (IFTA) simplifies fuel reporting for inter-state operations.

• Helps with safety and accident prevention.

• Optimizes fuel management.

CDMA Wireless Network and PCS

• MCP200 uses CDMA technology to connect dispatchers and vehicles over the wireless
airwaves.

• The Personal Communications Service (PCS) System is a low-powered, higher frequency
competitive technology to cellular, ideal for “in-city” trucking and transport.

• Radio frequency (RF) signals are received from the

• Driver’s interface with the Qualcomm platform and the
component that resides in the vehicle.

• Allows the driver to send and receive messages.

• Wherever a terrestrial wireless network exists, drivers can send messages to and receive
messages from dispatchers while traveling.

How MCP200 Uses PCS

• The MCP200 includes the MAS200, which consists primarily of a microprocessor, a
wireless modem module, and data storage.

• The user interface device (DIU200) is the driver’s display terminal that enables the driver
to read, write, and send messages.

• The antenna (located inside the WIB200) relays messages between dispatch and the
driver.

• The antenna receives and transmits wireless information to and from the MAS200.

• The antenna interfaces with local wireless networks. Communication is collected at the
PCS gateway and obtained by Qualcomm’s NOC where it is distributed to the dispatch
center . Disp atchers respond by send ing a message back to Qualcomm’s NOC, where it is
relayed to the PCS gateway and broadcast out to the wireless network to be picked up by
the vehicle’s antenna.

• A standard feature of the MCP200.

How the MCP200 Uses GPS

• MCP200 receives positioning data from the GPS receiver, which is integrated inside the
antenna to determine location.

• NOC receives position data from the MCP200 whenever a message is sent to a vehicle
and acknowledged, and whenever a driver sends a message to a dispatcher.

• NOC automatically retrieves position data from the NOC at regular intervals and makes it
available to the dispatcher.

• Dispatcher can request a position report from the MCP200 at any time.

Wi-Fi® Network

• A wireless networking technology that uses radio waves to provide wireless high-speed
internet and network connections.

• Provides Wi-Fi enabled devices, such as PCs, game consoles, mobile phones, MP3
players, and PDAs, access to the internet when within range (“hotspot” area) of a wireless
network.

What Is MCP200?

• Mobile part of the Qualcomm platform installed in a customer’s vehicle.

• Provides the driver with the ability to exchange messages with the dispatch center.

• Sends vehicle location information to the NOC.

• Each MCP200 has its own unique unit address which is the serial number on the MAS200.
This address is used by the NMC to route messages to the correct vehicle. The unit
address for a particular vehicle changes if the MAS200 in the vehicle is replaced.

• MCP200 operator, typically the driver, uses the display screens for creating, sending, and
reading messages; system verification; and troubleshooting.

Making Electrical Connections General Wiring and Installation Guidelines

Making Electrical Connections

Approved Qualcomm Electrical Connectors

The only Qualcomm-approved electrical connectors are crimp butt splices and crimp ring
terminals. Qualcomm recommends Nylon insulated, seamless butt connectors with
inspection windows. Heat-shrinkable butt connectors are preferred. When butt splicing
multiple wires on one end of a butt splice and a different number of wires on the other end,
step-down butt splices are recommended.

WAR NI NG

Not following proper wiring guidelines and using improper crimps and butt splices
may cause intermittent connections and may result in unexpected truck down time or

system failure.

Wire Stripping

Caution

Use care in stripping wires. Vibration can cause nicked wires to fail. Using wire
cutters, knives, or other tools can damage the conductor wire and/or insulation.

Knowing and following proper wire stripping techniques is essential for performing successful
and safe electrical connections of all system components.

1. Using a wire stripper, strip approximately 1/4" off the end of an insulated wire.

DO NOT COPY

Strip

approx.

1/4"

03AAA_270a

2. After stripping the wire, verify that the wire is not severed, nicked, or damaged by the
stripping tool. If the wire has been properly stripped, it is ready to be butt spliced. If the
wire has been damaged, restrip the wire (see step 1.).

General Wiring and Installation Guidelines Butt Splicing

Butt Splicing

• Qualcomm recommends Nylon insulated, seamless butt connectors with inspection
windows.

• Heat-shrinkable butt connectors are preferred.

Butt splicing can be done inside and outside the cab or enclosure. See Butt Splicing

Connections Done Inside the Vehicle (Out of the Weather) on page 3-3 and Moisture
Protection for Connections Done Outside the Vehicle on page 3-7.

Make sure the size of the butt splice is appropriate for the job. A good butt splice has these
characteristics:

• The ends of the bare wires are visible through an inspection window.

• The ends of the wires “butt” up against the stop.

• The wires are not exposed beyond splice shielding.

• Crimping does not sever or damage the wires or insulation.

Butt Splicing Connections Done Inside the Vehicle (Out of the Weather)

1. Insert the stripped wires approximately half way into a butt splice, preferably one with
an inspection window for verifying the wire is in the correct position.

• Crimping butt splices incorrectly can result in a severed wire and a failed wire connection.

Caution

DO NOT crimp on the crimp “tooth.”

1. Using a crimping tool, crimp the butt splice one end at a time. First, crimp the inside
crimp area where the wire has been stripped. Apply necessary pressure to this inside
area.

General Wiring and Installation Guidelines Routing and Protecting Cables

Access Holes

• Use existing holes for cable routing.

• If you drill, drill the smallest hole for the purpose:

- 1-1/2" hole is recommended for cables with a 9-pin DSUB connector, e.g., SDM cable.

- 1" hole is needed for the connectors on the antenna cable.

• Finish holes prior to routing cables:

- Debur holes.

- Use supplied grommet/convoluted tubing with internal holes.

- Extend convoluted tubing beyond the hole.

• Choose a location where tire chains or other tools will not likely be stowed on top of the
unit or cables. Do not mount the unit near items that may fall on it or bump cable
connections.

• Choose a location for the MAS200 that is structurally sound. The surface must support the
full weight of the MAS200 under all circumstances.

• Choose a location that provides for the various cable lengths.

• In cabover vehicles, install the MAS200 in the rear of the storage compartment. In this
location, tools or tire chains will not fall on top of the unit when the cab is tilted up.

• Be sure to provide enough room for cable bends or the removal of cables for servicing (4"
to 6" is recommended).

• Install the MAS200 so that the unit, cables, and any accessories can be serviced in the
future.

• Routing location—Route internally or externally. If routed externally, use the supplied
convoluted tubing.

• Cable dressing—Store and secure excess cable.

Power Cable Routing

PY

1. Select one of the following electrical power interface locations on the vehicle:

•Key switch

• Fuse panel

•Bus bar

• Circuit breakers

2. If needed, temporarily remove the two fuses from the fuse holders on the end of the
cable.

• The three required connections that you must make at the fuse end of the power cable:

- Chassis ground

- +12/24 VDC Battery (Main) (unswitched)

- +12/24 VDC Ignition (switched)

• Never wire the constant BAT+ connection or the IGNITION connection to the Accessory
position. See Appendix A for detailed pin and wire callouts.

1. Connect the black BA T RTN wires to a good grounding surface on the vehicle chassis or
one that is connected to the chassis. Refer to Grounding Guidelines on page 5-7 for
more information.

2. Connect the yellow BA T+ wire to an unswitched (Main) +12/24 VDC power source, such
as the hot side of the vehicle main wiring bus, the battery side of the ignition switch, or
the battery side of the fuse block (not the load side). This bus provides constant +12/24
VDC to the MCP200 and must not be connected to the accessory bus or any other
switched bus.

3. Connect the white IGNITION wire to the switched (ignition) +12/24 VDC power source,
such as the ignition side of the ignition (key) switch or the ignition side of the fuse block.

DO NOT COPY

• +12/24 VDC should be present on the IGNITION wire only when the ignition switch is

in the ON position, not in the OFF or Accessory position.

General Installation Guidelines Optional Satellite Data Modem (SDM) Installation

General Installation Guidelines

1. Orient the SDM on the mount.

2. Connect the SDM.

3. Route the SDM cable.

4. Connect the SDM cable to the MAS200.

Selecting a Mount

See the Outdoor Unit Mount Installation Guide for a complete list of Qualcomm mount s for
specific vehicle types and complete instructions for installing the SDM on the mount.

• Use only Qualcomm-designated mounts for equipment installed in the United States.

• Provide adequate clearance from any nearby structures, such as airdams and exhaust
stacks.

• Position the mount on the driver’s side, if possible, where tree branches and other hazards
will less likely contact the SDM.

• DO NOT install SDMs on headache racks or exhaust pipes.

Caution

Headache racks are mounted to the vehicle frame and there is no shock cushioning.
An SDM mounted on a headache rack risks damage. Qualcomm reserves the right
to charge for replacement or repair of damaged or malfunctioning SDMs which
Qualcomm determines to have failed as a result of installation on the headache
rack.

• DO NOT paint the SDM. Painting the SDM will degrade the performance of the mobile
computing platform (MCP) and void the unit warranty. The SDM mount may be painted.

• DO NOT open the SDM. Removing the radome will void the warranty unless you have
obtained authorization and instructions from Qualcomm. Removing the radome exposes
the MCP antenna to moisture.

• DO NOT overtighten bolts or connectors.

DO NOT COPY

Orienting the SDM on the Mount

• Install the SDM so that it is level when the vehicle is level.

SDM

Vehicles with Airdams

• Under a full airdam, orient the SDM so the SDM cable exits toward the front of the
vehicle.

• This orientation reduces the likelihood of water entering the SDM through the connector
port, especially when the vehicle is cleaned with high-pressure water.

Vehicles Without Airdams

• On a vehicle without an airdam and/or the mount is on the rear of the cab, orient th e SDM
so the SDM cable connection faces toward the side of the vehicle. See page 3-11 for
cable routing examples.

• This orientation prevents wind-driven rain from pounding the connector, while preventing
trailer swing from hitting the connector.

• Install the SDM so that it does not exceed the Federal D.O.T. mandated maximum legal
height of 13’ 6".

PY

Installing Mounting Bolts

1. Mount the SDM to the mounting bracket using the bolts and washers supplied with the
SDM mounting hardware (or exact substitutions). Normally, bolts longer than
should not be used. If longer bolts are needed, such as when the SDM is being
attached to a fiberglass shelf with a plywood base, use

2. Tighten the SDM mounting bolts to the recommended torque of 72 inch/pounds.

signals

OM/E-0093-42

Line-of-Sight Requirements

• SDM requires an unobstructed line-of-sight view to the satellite in order to clearly sen d and
receive signals.

• SDM must be able to send and receive the signals at a 12° angle above the horizontal
plane of the unit. There must be an unobstructed view of the satellite at all angles above
12°.

The following illustration shows the 12° angle and the maximum allowable height of
objects located at various distances from the SDM centerline.

• An obstruction height of 2.5 feet for every 12 feet away from the SDM centerline is
acceptable. Use this same formula to verify that a trailer hooked up to the vehicle does not
extend above the 12° angle.

• Satellite signal can normally pass through thin layers of glass, fiberglass, and plastic. Thick
layers or obstructions above the 12° angle may block the satellite signal and cause “blind
spots.” Keep blind spots to a minimum:

- Multiple layers of fiberglass, glass, or plastic

- Areas with numerous bends in the fiber glass

- Metal and wood bracing

- Metallic paints and lead-based paints

DO NOT COPY

- Company logos that contain metallic materials

- Metal airdams, metal wings, metal side skirts, air conditioning units, and exhaust

stacks.

• When mounting an SDM, make sure that the mounting surface is strong enough to support
the weight of the SDM and mount.

• The installation must also withstand very strong shock forces exerted by the vehicle when
it is moving.

Trailer Swing Area

• DO NOT position the mount in the rear center of the vehicle. The corner of the trailer could
hit the SDM when the vehicle turns sharply.

• When positioning the SDM on the mount, protect the SDM connector by turning the
antenna so it faces the side and NOT the back of the trailer.

• Make sure that when the “fifth wheel” of a vehicle is fully forward, the trailer clears the
SDM when executing sharp turns or going up ramps.

• If the vehicle will be hauling refrigerated trailers, make sure that the refrigeration unit still
clears the SDM when the driver turns sharply or drives up ramps.

cannot interfere in any way with the operation of the vehicle.

• Check Important Safety Information on page -xi when choosing a location.

Installing the Remote Control Device (RCD)

1. Determine a suitable location.

• VHB (very high bond) tape permanently bonds the device to the dash panel.

2. Remove the dash panels to expose the backside of the dash. Check that the area is free
of cable, wires, and/or hoses.

3. Drill a 1/4" hole in the dash panel and debur the hole.

• OPTIONAL: If routing the cable over the dash, use tie wraps to secure the cable.

4. Route cable through the hole and behind the dash panel.

5. Use the alcohol wipe provided to clean the mounting surface of any dirt, oil, or grime.

• OPTIONAL: There are two nutsert s on the back of the RCD that can be used instead

of/in addition to the VHB tape. If you use the nutserts, you will need 4-40 x 0.375-

0.412 screws. These screws are not supplied by Qualcomm.

6. Remove the paper backing from the VHB tape and firmly press the RCD onto the
mounting surface. Let it stand for a few minutes to allow surfaces to fully bond.

Vehicle Data Source Overview Vehicle Data Bus Connections

Vehicle Data Source Overview

Qualcomm’s mobile computing platform can use the J1708/J1587 and J1939 data buses, as
well as traditional sensors to monitor critical vehicle data:

• Traditional sensors are used on most pre-1992 trucks.

• J1708/J1587 data bus is used on most 1992–2009 trucks.

• J1708/J1587 and J1939 data buses are available on 2007–2010 trucks.

• J1939 will be the only data bus used on most trucks built after 2010.
These data inputs can be monitored on the vehicle data services (VDS) screens. The vehicle

data source makes this data available to specific applications on the MCP200.

J1939 Data Bus

Qualcomm applications only support 2007 and newer trucks with ECMs that support the SAE
J1939-71, Rev. Nov 2006 standard.

• High speed (250 Kb/sec) data bus.

• Uses a two-wire differential serial bus, which is a network backbone running throughout
the vehicle with several stubs connecting each ECM to the backbone.

J1708/J1587 Data Bus

• Low speed (9.6 Kb/sec), bi-directional data bus.

• Uses a two-wire differential serial bus, which runs throughout the vehicle.

Traditional Sensors

• Use traditional sensors if the truck does not have the J1708/J1587 or J1939 data bus. For
information on connecting traditional sensors, contact Qualcomm Enterprise Services

Vehicle Data Bus Connections Vehicle Data Source Selection

Vehicle Data Source Selection

When making data source connections, there are two possible data buses available: the
J1708 /J1587 low-speed data bus and the J1939 high-speed dat a bus. The truck year, make,
and model, as well as the Qualcomm applications used determine which data bus to use.

If you do not know which data source to use, contact your Qualcomm representative for
assistance.

Guidelines for Connecting to the J1939 Data Bus

• The MCP200 has two J1939 CAN inputs. Choose Option 1 or Option 2 according to these
specifications:

- Option 1: CAN 1 is used for all after market installations and some factory prewired

installations when the distance between the MAS200 and the J1939 bus connection
point exceeds 10 feet.

- Option 2: CAN0 is only used for factory prewired installations when the distance

between the MAS200 and the J1939 bus connection point does not exceed 10 feet.

• DO NOT extend factory wires.

• Maximum stub length is 10 feet.

• Minimum stub spacing is 4 inches.

• Never have more than one ECM device on the same stub.

J1939 Pre-installation Check Out

Prior to beginning any installation, start the vehicle and verify that the vehicle is in good
working order, has no faults, and no check engine lights display.

Resistance Test (to Verify that J1939 Is Present)

1. Turn ignition OFF.

2. Verify tha t J1939 is present on vehicle. Locate the 9-pin d iagnostic (Deut sch) conn ector.

Note

If you have a 6-pin connector, you have J1708/J1587 only. See Connecting J1708 /

J1587 on page 11-10.

3. Using an ohmmeter, place the positive lead on pin C and the negative lead on pin D of
the diagnostic connector. Verify that the resistance is 55–65 ohms.

• If the resistance is 55–65 ohms, J1939 is present. Go to Checking the MCP200

Accessory Cable for CAN0 and CAN1 on page 11-5.

DO NOT COPY

• If the resistance is not 55–65 ohms, there is a problem with your J19 39 dat a bus. Fix

the problem.

Note

On some vehicles, open doors and/or cabin lights on may cause CAN/J1939 bus
activity which may interfere with diagnostic connector resistance measurements.

in either the vehicle’s dash or B-pillar.

2. Locate the CAN connector on the accessory cable. The CAN connector is marked
either CAN0 or CAN1 to identify the MAS200 CAN port being used.

• All after-market installations have a CAN1 connector.

• OEM prewires can have either a CAN0 or a CAN1 connector, depending on the

truck model/manufacturer.

3. For a CAN1 connector, go to Option 1—Connecting J1939 Using CAN 1 (for All After-

Market Installations) on page 11-5.

4. For a CAN0 connector , go to Option 2—Con necting J1939 Using CAN0 (for Most OEM

Making the Connection

1. Start the vehicle and verify that the truck is in good working order and displays no dash
faults.

2. Turn OFF the truck and ensure that no dash lights are on.

Note

Some trucks may have activity on the J1939 bus with the door open or if an accessory is
active. This can cause a faulty resistance reading on the CAN bus.

3. Measure the J1939 bus resistance at the diagnostic connector. It should read 60 ohms.
(Refer to Resistance Test (to Verify that J1939 Is Present) on page 11-4.)

4. Locate the J1939 bus wires.

• The J1939 wires are a twisted pair

• CAN high (J1939+) (yellow)

• CAN low (J1939-) (green)

5. Determine a suitable J1939 location point. In many vehicles you can connect behind the
truck diagnostic connector. Be aware that only one electronic device should be
connected to the J1939 stub at the back of the diagnostic connector at a time. If another
device is already present you will need to splice directly into the vehicle's backbone.
