TitanGPS TT1SPSATsolar Quick Install Manual

These guidelines are meant to maximize
the performance of the unit.

STEP 1: Determine Installation Type

STEP 2:

Determine Mounting Location

QUICK INSTALL GUIDETT1SPSATsolar

Device should be mounted face up on a flat horizontal surface that is
perpendicular to the sun with a clear view of the sky
Secure with double-sided adhesive tape and/or screw directly to the asset

If using double-sided adhesive tape:

Surface must be clean, smooth and dry
Ambient temperature must be above 10C
Apply at 80lb (350N) force to the asset for a minimum of three seconds to
achieve full bonding strength
Failure to adhere to these instructions could lead to the device becoming
detached from the asset in the field

If using screws:

Use existing mounting holes with four #6 machine screws (Pan head
recommended). Use 316 grade stainless steel for longevity
DO NOT use countersunk screws as this may damage housing
DO NOT over-tighten screws (DO NOT exceed 1.2 N.m (10 in.lb) torque)
Mounting hole diameter = 3.81mm (0.150”)

Depending upon the requirements, the TT1SPSATsolar can be installed in two

Option1: TT1SPSATsolar ONLY

Option2: TT1SPSATsolar with Input Cable (optional)

The input cable allows for transmission of up to two input statuses, as well as
connecting to a power source
There are two ways the inputs can be connected

Type A: “Dry Contact” – Input without voltage
Type B: “With Voltage” – Input with voltageways.

STEP 3: Complete Mounting and Wire Connections (if necessary)

Option 1: Mounting the device WITHOUT Input Cable

a) Mount device as per “Determine Mounting Location” recommendations
b) Proceed to “Testing the Device”

Option 2: Mounting the device WITH Input Cable

a) Connect Input(s) and/or power according to Input Types below
IMPORTANT: The Input TYPE must be pre-programmed into the device. If unsure of
which method to use, please contact us as incorrect installation may damage the device.

INPUT CONNECTIONS

POWER CONNECTION
IMPORTANT: Connect to 10-48V DC Only

b) Mount device as per “Determine Mounting Location” recommendations
c) Connect Input Cable into TT1SPSATsolar
d) Tighten Input Cable Connections (Be careful not to over-tighten)
e) Proceed to “Testing the Device”

Type A : “Dry Contact” – Input WITHOUT Voltage

IMPORTANT: If device programmed for Dry Contact input(s) then DO NOT CONNECT DIRECTLY

TO ANY POWER SOURCE Doing so may void the warranty.

INPUT1: White: Dry Contact 1 (Recommended for Ignition/Engine Status Input)

Dark Blue: Ground

INPUT2:

Light Blue: Dry Contact 2

Green: Ground

Type B : “With Voltage” – Input WITH Voltage

IMPORTANT: If device programmed for “With Voltage” Inputs connect to 10 to 48V DCI

INPUT1: White: Ignition/Engine Status Input (+) (10 to 48V DC)

Dark Blue: Ground

INPUT2:

Light Blue: Input 2 (+)

Green: Ground

Violet (+): Line Power + MUST FUSE within 1 foot of source (1 Amp Fuse)

Grey(-): Line Power-

IMPORTANT: Always be sure to “test” the device BEFORE sending the asset into the field
a) Move the asset outside so the TT1SPSATsolar has a clear view of the sky
b) If Input(s) connected, turn input(s) ON
c) Remove the Magnetic Grommet from the TT1SPSATsolar (Store for future use)

DO NOT remove the screw attaching the Magnetic Grommet, simply pull the grommet

over the screw to remove it

d) Login to the Titan GPS platform to ensure device reports at your location and show
Input status(es) as ON (May take up to 35 minutes for first report to come through)

CARE AND USE

The clear plastic on the TT1SPSATsolar should be kept free of soil or debris to
maximize battery charging capacity
Solar panels produce the most electricity when they are perpendicular to the sun
Shading and weather conditions may negatively aect the charging of the batteries
from the solar panels
If the batteries of the TT1SPSATsolar are fully depleted, it is recommended to allow
the device to receive a full day (6+ hours) of adequate sunlight to fully charge the
batteries
If the clear plastic panel covering the solar panel becomes cracked, the device should
be replaced
The device should provide up to 10 years of maintenance-free operation based on
adequate sun exposure to recharge the battery pack. The internal battery pack is not
replaceable.
If the asset is to be stored indoors for extended periods of time, the TT1SPSATsolar
should be shut down be installing the Magnetic Grommet to avoid draining the
battery pack. Be careful to store the Magnetic Grommet when removed.
A fully charged TT1SPSATsolar should remain operational up to 6 months with a
clear view of the sky in the absence of sunlight if programmed with two GPS locations
per day
