Installation Guidelines

Select a large flat surface area for mounting that allows easy
access for EVOLUTION 5000 TIC for storage and adequate
cable length for electrical connections. Take care to install the
charger in an area protected from direct water spray and
extreme temperature conditions.

Mounting Hanging Channels

1. Drill two holes in both Unistrut channels (A in Fig. 20) using
a 7 mm drill.
Drill mounting holes, 38 mm (1.5 inches) from outside
edges of channels.
2. Place top channel on the cab wall, approx. 100 mm
(4 inches) away from overhead obstructions.
3. Using a Unistrut channel as a template, drill two holes into
cab wall with a 5 mm drill.
4. Tap both holes for mounting bolts.
5. Position bottom channel on cab wall, 165 mm (6.5 inches)
away from centre of top channel.
6. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to mount bottom channel.
7. Bolt both channels in-place with stainless steel bolts.
Mounting the Truck-Mounted Charger to
Channels
1. Slide Unistrut spring nut (B in Fig. 20) into channel and
rotate 90° to seat nut in channel V-groove. One nut is
required for the top channel and two for the bottom
channel.
2. Place the stainless steel bolts (C in Fig. 20) through the
mounting holes moulded into the charger.
3. Place the neoprene rubber washer (D in Fig. 20) over the
bolt, align bolt with spring nut and tighten.

Note: If mounting the charger vertically, add a second
neoprene washer to each of the bottom two bolts.

Power Requirements

D
The Truck-Mounted Charging System can consume enough
current to eventually fully drain the vehicle's battery, if the
vehicle stands for longer than a 12-hour period without
supplemental battery charging.
Therefore, it is recommended that the charger be installed
using any master ON/OFF switch where power comes directly
from the battery, supplemental charger or connected to AC
power via a shoreline when the vehicle is stored.

Connection

1. Connect the positive lead (red) on the prepared wire end
of the power supply line to a fused, in-line connection with
a master switch. Connect to the switched side of ignition or
power source.
2. Connect the negative lead (black) of power supply line to a
confirmed ground.
3. With power source ON, confirm that the power LED light is
GREEN. If any other result occurs, see "Troubleshooting
Guidelines" in the "Maintenance, Troubleshooting and
Service" section of this manual.

9. General Maintenance

After each use, inspect:
the EVOLUTION 5000 TIC for structural, heat and/or
chemical damage.
the mechanical hardware to ensure no screws are loose
and no O-rings or gaskets are loose or misplaced.
all lenses for heat damage, chemical damage, cracks and
breaks.
to ensure that all warning labels are intact.
battery – see "Battery Care and Installation".
Charger and TIC LEDs for proper indication that the system
is operating properly.
Note: Thermal Imaging Cameras not meeting the above
inspection must be removed from service until the proper
repairs are made.
