Installation & Operating Instructions

Please read these instructions before use

The IRBC range is a new generation of brake controllers that can operate in both Inertial controlled and
Preset brake force utilising microprocessor and Tri-axis Accelerometer technologies. It is a compact,
rugged, electronic brake controller and is easily installed with the connection of four wires and the easy
plug in remote control. Easily adjustable via the remote control which can be located up to 1m from the
controller. Both models also incorporate an over-ride function for manual control.
Designed for both single and dual axle trailers using negative earth (ground) systems only.
Available in 12V & the new 24V version eliminating the need for a separate reducer on 24V systems.

Installation :

1. Disconnect the vehicle’s NEGATIVE battery terminal.

2. Determine a suitable mounting location inside the cabin. The unit must be mounted securely to a solid
and rigid surface.

3. Hold the main unit in the selected position and mark the hole location through the holes in the anges of

the unit.

4. Using a suitable drill bit, drill holes in the marked locations.

5. Secure Main unit in position with self tapping screws being careful not to strip the holes by

over-tightening.

6. Drill a hole for the 8.5mm Shaft in a suitably sized mounting panel in the dash with a wall thickness of

less than 4mm.

7. Afx decal and locking nut over shaft and tighten. Turn shaft fully counter clockwise and afx the knob
on the shaft with rm even pressure with the indicator facing the minimum position.

8. Plug the RJ45 connector on remote cable into main unit.

9. Connect brake wiring as per wiring instructions and follow Set-up and Operation procedures.

Note : The IRBC-12 and IRBC-24 are load activated and can not be tested without load. At no load, output

reading of high voltage will register. Also the output voltage is PULSED, so it cannot be measured

with a volt meter or test light.
