sPOD SPECIAL EDITION 8-SWITCH CONTROL SYSTEM
w/ 3.5" COLOR TOUCHSCREEN
UNIVERSAL MOUNT MODEL
sPOD
IS the industry leader in power and control solutions.
The sPOD Source SE (Special Edition) is a new 8-circuit system that
incorporates all the reliability and functionality that makes sPOD the
choice of premier builders and 4x4 owners worldwide.
The system utilizes automotive grade approved high-power, high-temp,
ultra-reliable components with a maximum 100 amp capacity. The sPOD
Source SE is fully programmable digital CAN-Bus controlled system
utilizing state-of-the-art Pulse-width modulation (PWM) technologies.
OEM vehicle specific simple installation hardware, engineered and 100%
manufactured in the United States.
Source SE Features:
-Fully programmable Digital controlled system
-Eight circuits rated @30 amps @ 12.5vdc per circuit
-End-User friendly for attaching accessories
-Expandable to up to 32 circuits with simple plug-n-play features (additional modules must be purchased separately)
Low
voltage cutoff (LVCO) battery protection circuit has spec voltage
cutoff at 11.2 VDC with a two-minute delay before shutting down the
sPOD Source SE. This is useful when you have accessories turned on while the
vehicle is not running. When the vehicle starts, the accessories can
then be used again. The low voltage battery protection circuit can be
turned off with the DIP switches
The Spod Source SE incorporates a
failsafe self-healing fault protection system. Fuses have been
eliminate (for all accessory outputs) and replaced with current-sensing
MOSFETs controlled by a microprocessor. This is a great feature for low
maintenance and troubleshooting
Two circuits (switches 1 and 2)
have the option to be activated by an ignition switched power source
(great for accessories that you DO NOT WANT to turn on unless the
ignition key is on). These two circuits can be easily changed to this
option by a simple DIP switch setting on the Spod Source SE and running a
jumper wire to tap into a fuse that is only activated when the ignition
is on. The same two circuits can also be used as a High-Beam activated
circuits by tapping into the input side of one of the headlight's
high-beam circuits. We have taken care of the PWM issue with the
headlight circuits. (We nailed this one!)
Shield receptacle for
the optional Bluetooth module for a plug-n-play end-user upgrade
(Bluetooth Module sold separately). This creates a scalable platform for
future option enhancements such as Wi-Fi, Arduino, Raspberry Pi,
special strobe interfaces, CAN-interior bus integration to head units,
intelligent circuit feedback and many other future options.
-One single ATM mini-style fuse for LVCO protection and resetting
Touchscreen Features:
The new touchscreen controller is small (3-3/4"w x 2-7/8"h x 5/8"d)
but packs a BIG punch! The control module is a 3.5-inch LED backlit TFT
LCD screen with a resolution of 320 x 240, 16.7m colors and a viewing
angle of 180 degrees housed in a billet aluminum case with a 1" Ram
mount installed on back panel. The connection between the sPOD Source SE
and the touchscreen uses a small 90 degree 3.5mm standard 4 pin audio
jack with a FJ-45 Ethernet plug on the sPOD Source SE end. Standard cable
length will be 12 feet.
-Customizable legends (3 lines of text)
-Each switch is programmable for:
o Dimming
o Strobe
o Flash
o Momentary
-Voltage feedback (vehicle's battery/alternator voltage
-sPOD Source SE board temperature feedback (shown on screen)
-Automatic power off after 10 minutes of being inactive
-One touch screen off function
-One second hold on/off button shuts all circuits down
-Automatic system shut down when touchscreen is unplugged
-Touchscreen housing is NOT plastic, but rather an aluminum billet machined clamshell designed with several options for mounting
-Two ports for connection; one on top and one on bottom
-Touchscreens
can be daisy chained for remote operations (example: one panel in cab
and one panel in far back of truck) and can easily add up to 10
touchscreens
(additional touchscreens sold separately)
-Selection of up to 4 sPOD SourceSC to have control of up to 32 circuits
-Housing
is made of billet aluminum machined to precise specifications. A
universal back plate is supplied for universal mounting options
A Ram Double Socket Arm, along with either a Ram suction cup or diamond bolt-on mount base, is required to mount the touchscreen - sold separately
