Product Usage Instructions
- Ensure the supply voltage provided to the Telematic unit Prototype P5 is within the range of 6V-60V.
- Connect the device to the vehicle using the 18-pin connector, following the pinout provided in the user manual.
- If required, insert a Nano-SIM into the designated slot for cellular communication.
- For additional functionality, utilize the GPIO pins (1-5) according to your requirements. These pins support both digital input and output, with 3.3V voltage levels (12V input tolerant).
- If analog input is needed, connect the desired sensor or device to the AIN pin, ensuring that the voltage does not exceed 100V.
- Make use of the IM_OUT pin for immobilizer output, if applicable.
- Ensure that the Telematic unit Prototype P5 is properly installed in a water-protected housing, considering its connectors as well.
- If programming is required, connect a programmer tool to the designated data and clock pins (NRF or VCU) as specified in the pinout.
- Refer to the LED indications for monitoring device status. The fault LED indicates any detected faults or errors.
- If available, program the device through the connector or utilize Over-the-Air (OTA) programming methods.
Note: For specific information on temperature range and other radio- related specifications, refer to the provided radio specifications when available.

FCC STATEMENT
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
- this device may not cause harmful interference, and
- this device must accept any inte rference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interferenceto radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an
uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with
