Note that these are average values. Maximum values may be as much as 15% more. All currents shown
above are individual contributions and at 25°C ambient. Items with burst or slot in the notes are the peak
values.
The power consumed by a GPS device remains constant. It will save power to turn off the GPS during
power down sequence. It takes about a minute after power on to get a GPS fix.
There are no software controllable lines gating power to these devices. The MTS has full flow control for
RS-232. You must ensure that whatever it is connected to is not drawing power from it
.
The use of Orbcomm and Iridium satellite network is not available when modem’s voltage drops below
10.5/7.5 VDC respectively.
Relay current is 1A MAX at 25C, .5A MAX at 85C. Power usage depends on customer application.
DC Input power to QUAKE Q4000 modems is +6.0V to +32.0VDC. Supplied input voltages outside this
range will result in damage to the modem and void the warranty.
