3.1.3 Auxiliary Output (AUX+ and AUX–)
You can use the AUX+ and AUX– terminals to supply reverse polarity
protected source voltage to external devices, such as a radio or a solenoid.
All module terminal blocks accept 12 AWG or smaller wiring. Refer to
Figures 3-3 and 3-4.
For the 12-volt dc Power Input module (PM-12), the auxiliary output
follows the voltage located at BAT+ minus ~0.7 Volts dc, which is the
protection diode voltage drop. For example, if the BAT+ voltage is 13
volts dc, then AUX+ is ~12.3 Volts dc.
For the 12-volt dc Power Input module, AUX+ / AUX– is always on and
is current-limited by a fast acting glass 2.5 Amp x 20 mm fuse. In the
event that the fuse blows, CSA requires that you replace the 2.5 Amp
fast-acting fuse with a Little Fuse 217.025 or equivalent. Refer to
“Automatic Self Tests” in Chapter 1, General Information.
