These buttons are normally wired to the ADL Switch Input pins, but may also
be wired to the Digital or Analog Inputs, if the Switch Inputs are occupied.

The buttons should be wired between an ADL input and ADL 0V pins.

Note that if wired to an Analog Voltage input an external pull-up resistor must
be connected between the input pin and the 5V sensor supply.

External Lights

All lights including the Shift Lights & Warning Lights must be wired externally.
This allows a choice of lights and allows the lights to be placed in the
optimum position.

Usually LEDs or LED arrays are used.

The lights must be wired between one of the Auxiliary Outputs and the ADL
Battery Positive.

The lights must not consume more than 0.5 Amps (6 watts at 12Volts) unless
activated via a relay.

Thermocouples

Thermocouples must be wired to the ADL via a thermocouple amplifier.

The MoTeC Thermocouple Amplifier (TCA) may be used with K Type
thermocouples and may be connected to either the Analog Voltage or Analog
Temperature inputs of the ADL.

Connecting to a MoTeC ECU

An ECU may be connected to the ADL which will make information in the
ECU available to the ADL for display or logging or any other purpose.

MoTeC M400/M600/M800/M880 ECUs may be connected via CAN or via
RS232.
