==Idrive PowerUp2==

'''DESCRIPTION'''
[[File:PowerUp2.jpg|right|600px]]
The PowerUp 2 is a high voltage power manager providing instant-on operation and high
efficiency battery charging over a wide voltage range.

*Seamlessly used for 12Vdc to 24VDC embedded automotive systems; e.g. X2 & AI Camera Event Video Recording Systems.
An onboard buck-boost DC/DC controller operates with battery and/or system voltage above, below or equal to the input voltage.


*The PowerUp2 seamlessly manages power distribution between battery and converter outputs in response to load variations,
battery charge requirement and input power supply limitations.


*The module instant-on operation ensures system load power even with a fully discharged battery.

*Additional safety features include preconditioning for heavily discharged batteries and an integrated timer for termination
and protection.


*The module can provide constant-current/ constant-voltage charge algorithm
(CC/CV). Maximum converter and battery charge current are resistor controlled.


:*Directional Male/Female connector and cables are provided for quick-connect to AI Camera and insertion of PowerUp2 quickly, without the need for additional wire connections
:*Min. 35 Minute Power Back-up for AI at 350mA/h current consumptions

==LEDs and Status Test Button==
[[File:PowerUp2 LEDs.jpg|right|800px]]


The PowerUp2 contains 2 LEDs (ED1 red, ED2 green) that provide charger status and signals fault conditions
status. These LEDs binary coded signals:
*Battery charging
*Standby or shutdown modes
*Battery temperature fault
*Bad battery fault (unfulfilled preconditions)

Also, the system contains another bicolor led (ED3 red and green) that provide actual functional mode:
*Powered by VBAT GREEN
*Powered by internal VBAT1 RED

==Wire Connections==

'''Attach wires to the follow sources in vehicle as shown below:'''


[[File:PowerUp2 wire Diagram.jpg|1000px]]

'''Required Connections'''

There are 3 required connections for the Idrive device to function properly.

* Connect the BLACK WIRE to battery negative or to a clean, metal vehicle GROUND.

* The RED power wire must be connected through the supplied fuse to a '''continuous''' 12VDC+ power source. This power source should never be cut off.
::It may be necessary to make a direct battery connection if your vehicle has a battery cut off or does not supply non-interrupted 12VDC+


* The WHITE ignition wire must be connected to a 12VDC+ power source that is ignition switched. This wire tells the camera to boot up or to enter transfer mode to download events.

::'''NOTE: Many vehicles trick you to thinking you have connected to an Ignition Wire, but after ignition off might not drop to 0VDC until the driver door opens and closes'''

:*Avoid any of these ignition connections that are electronically delayed or conditionally switched with the driver's door


'''Optional Connections'''

There are 3 optional wire connections that will trigger an event on the Idrive device. The description of the usage shown is suggested however each wire may be connected to the trigger point of your choice so long as electrical parameters are met.

If you choose not to use the optional wires, verify that they are secured properly in order to prevent shorting.

* Connect the BLUE wire from the Camera to the Idrive Supplied Wired Panic Button (or trigger method of your choice). This wire requires a MOMENTARY 12V RISING edge level transition pulse of at least 50ms duration.
* Connect the GREEN wire to an Alarm circuit (or trigger method of your choice). This wire requires a 0V to 12V RISING edge level transition pulse of at least 50ms duration

* Connect the YELLOW wire to a Door circuit (or trigger method of your choice). This wire requires a constant 12VDC+ and triggers with a FALLING edge level transition pulse of at least 50ms duration


<br>

====Test Cable Connections====


'''IMPORTANT!''' Use a voltmeter to verify the proper connection of each wire prior to plugging into the Idrive device.
<br/>

'''Plug the Circular Power Connector into the camera and screw it finger tight'''

::'''NOTES:'''
::*The Circular Power Connector is keyed and will only insert into the camera exiting with the cable oriented upward
::*Vehicle power above is stated as 12VDC+, and can be wired to a 24VDC+ vehicle electrical system
::::'''IMPORTANT'''
:::::*if you are using 12VDC+ for the RED Power Wire, make sure you are using 12VDC+ for the WHITE Ignition wire
:::::*Likewise, if you are using 24VDC+ for the RED Power Wire, make sure you are using 24VDC+ for the WHITE Ignition wire    
:::::*Maintain similar voltage (12 or 24VDC+ respectfully) for Blue, Green and Yellow wires (if used)
