Thermograph Solution Installation Guide
Introduction
The connection to a thermograph is achieved using the harness HRN-CCTH (IOX-COLD) or HRN-RCCTH (IOX-COLD RUGGED). Their loose wires are directly connected to the thermograph’s screw terminal connectors or crimped to the thermograph’s connectors. The pinout on the thermograph’s side, depends on its brand and model. For more information, please see Thermograph Specifications and Configurations section.
! IMPORTANT: Once the required installations between the IOX-COLD/IOX-COLD RUGGED and its compatible solutions (Refrigeration unit and accessories, Thermograph, Tachograph, Expansions) have been completed, the IOX-COLD/IOX-COLD RUGGED must be installed with GO9/GO9 RUGGED devices as outlined in the quick start guides.

1
Remove the Thermograph from its location using extractors.
2
Connect the HRN-CCTH to the IOX-COLD.
3
Route the harness HRN-CCTH. If needed, cut or loop its extra length after having routed the harness.
Once routed, connect the harness to the Thermograph following the connection table below and the Thermograph specifications and configurations section.

Important safety information and limitations of use
WARNING! Do not attempt to install, configure or remove any product from any vehicle while the vehicle is in motion or otherwise in operation. All installation, configuration or removal must be done only in stationary vehicles which are securely parked. Attempting to service units while being operated could cause malfunctions or accidents, leading to death or serious personal injury.
WARNING! All in-vehicle devices and related cabling must be securely fastened and kept clear of all vehicle controls, including accelerator, brake and clutch pedals. You must inspect devices and cabling on a regular basis to ensure that all devices and cabling continue to be securely attached. Loose cabling or devices may impede the use of vehicle controls, resulting in unanticipated acceleration, braking or other loss of vehicle control, which could lead to death or serious personal injury. Improperly fastened in-vehicle devices may detach and impact operators upon sudden acceleration or deceleration, which may cause injury.
WARNING! If, at any point after an in-vehicle device is installed, a warning light illuminates on the vehicle dashboard or the vehicle stalls or has a marked drop in performance, shut off the engine, remove the device and contact your reseller. Continuing to operate a vehicle with these symptoms can cause loss of vehicle control and serious injury.
WARNING! Your in-vehicle devices must be kept clear of debris, water and other environmental contaminants. Failure to do so may cause units malfunctioning or short-circuiting, which can lead to a fire hazard or vehicle damage or serious injury.
WARNING! Do not attempt to remove the devices from the vehicle they were originally installed in for installation in another vehicle. Not all vehicles share compatibility, and doing so may cause unexpected interactions with your vehicle, including sudden loss of power or shutdown of the vehicle's engine while in operation or cause your vehicle to operate poorly or erratically and cause death or serious injury and/or vehicle damage.
NOTICE: This product does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Configuration, servicing and repairs must only be made by an authorized Reseller or installer. Unauthorized servicing of these products will void your product warranty.
