Ignition sense on/off wiring
This section only applies to installing an MP modem in a
vehicle. If you are installing the MP modem in an office
building, use the AC/DC adapter.

Note: Do not install an on/off
switch on the main (red) battery
line, or connect the white ignition
sense wire to the red battery
wire. Both configurations bypass
the MP modem's controlled
shutdown sequence, and may
cause data loss and subsequent
power-on problems. Incorrect
wiring may also drain the vehicle
battery.

The MP modem’s power on/off is controlled by the ignition
sense line (white wire) using internal software, rather than a
hard on/off switch on the red power line. The red, black, and
white wires connect to the battery and ignition switch as
shown in the power harness wiring diagram.

Ignition sense options
There are three ways to connect the ignition sense wiring:
•
Engine on only. Connect the white ignition sense wire to
the vehicle’s ignition switch so that the MP modem is
powered on only when the ignition key is switched to the
full “On” position, that is, when the engine has been
started. In this configuration, the engine must be running for
the MP modem to be on.
