MoTeC GPS-BL1 - Manual (Page 4)

2 Using the GPS
Antenna Connection
Insert the antenna connector until it clicks into place - check by ensuring the
connector cannot be pulled out easily.
Be careful not to damage the antenna cable when routing it through the
vehicle and ensure that the cable cannot be squashed or otherwise damaged
during use.
GPS Unit Electrical Connections
The GPS unit sends data to the logging device via an RS232 serial
connection.
The wiring between the GPS unit and the logging device should be as short
as possible, preferably less than 1m (3ft)
The following table shows how to wire the GPS unit to a number of Motec
logging devices using the supplied adapter cable.

Name Logging
Device
Name ADL2 SDL ACL
1 Bat - Bat - 7 4 1
2 TX RX 79 34 15
3 Bat+ Bat+ 8 3 2
Note that while the unit has a 5V to 18V power supply range the unit draws
too much current to be powered from the 5V supply on the logging device so
it must be powered from the battery supply.
Note that the ADL2 and SDL logging devices only have one serial connection
therefore if an ECU is to be connected then it must be connected via CAN
(Note that not all ECUs have a CAN connection)
GPS Configuration
The GPS comes preconfigured from Motec to suit Motec logging equipment.
