6.1.1 Release contact (IGN)
The device is capable of being externally started by using an additional signal input. This function is well
known from the automotive industry (switch-on by using an ignition contact). The device is here
continuously supplied with a 24V / 48V DC power supply, and only if the additional signal is present at
the ignition contact, e.g. as a result of turning the ignition key of the forklift, the computer is switched on
or the blocking is released. This function protects the system from unauthorised use. If the device is
installed onboard of vehicles or other mobile and battery driven equipment, the ignition function also
saves energy. This function can be configured by using the Ignition Key Locking software tool. For
example, the computer can be shut down in a time-controlled manner if voltage is no longer present at
the ignition contact. Prefabricated supply cables are available from ads-tec for using the ignition
function.
Information:
Switching the device ON or OFF by using the Power button will override the
ignition function. That means, if the device is switched off by using the Power
button, the system is shut down and can be restarted by using the Power
button. However, it can also be restarted by using the ON/OFF function of
the ignition.
Device with 24V DC power adapter:
ATTENTION
The ignition signal works with a threshold value of
5V DC. The voltage must never exceed the
maximum voltage of 36 V DC! Risk of destruction!
Do not use the device onboard of vehicles with
more than 24V DC system voltage without any
voltage adaptation for the ignition contact! Risk of
destruction!
Device with 48V DC power adapter:
ATTENTION
The ignition signal works with a threshold value of
5V DC. The voltage must never exceed the
maximum voltage of 60V DC! Risk of destruction!
Do not use the device onboard of vehicles with
more than 48V DC system voltage without any
voltage adaptation for the ignition contact! Risk of
destruction!
Information:
The ignition function must never be used together with the autostart function!
Information:
The ignition function is available with most operating systems.
