Password Protection

On the Online menu, click Set Password

The password will prevent unauthorised retrieving and sending of
configuration files.

It is not possible to update firmware if the PDM is password protected.

Standby Mode

The PDM has a low power standby mode to minimize battery drain when the
vehicle is turned off.

Up to four outputs can be configured in the Output Pin settings to stay alive
(i.e. remain turned on) during the standby mode. These outputs are intended
for powering applications where electronic devices require a continuous low
current (typically micro amps) supply to maintain settings or state.

The PDM enters the low current Standby Mode when all of the following
conditions have been true for 5 minutes:

-

All outputs that do not have the “stay alive during standby mode” option

enabled are turned off

- All

outputs that have the “stay alive during standby mode” option enabled

are below the allowed current limits (approximately 0.5A)

- No CAN messages have been received

- No CAN messages have been successfully transmitted

The PDM will exit the Standby Mode when any of the following conditions are
true:

- Activity is present on the CAN bus

-

Any output that has the “stay alive during standby mode” option enabled

exceeds the allowed current limit (approximately 0.5A)

- Any input pin changes state
