ELECTRICAL HOOK-UP
Only power and ground need to be connected for the mp2 advantage to function.
However, a speedometer input needs to be connected if using ground speed orienta-
tion (auto mode).
Power & Ground: It is recommended that the power and ground connections be shared
by the control panel and valve control modules. Power should be from an ignition key
source or a relay installed that powers from the ignition key.
Speedometer: A speedometer input is required for the AUTO mode operation of the
spreader. This can typically be picked up at the TCM or ECU. Contact the truck manufac-
turer for further speedometer input details.

1) Locate the control panel. Remove the two
Allen screws to expose the 25 pin electrical
port.
3) Plug the 25 pin connector of NXWH5 into the
25 pin connector port on the control panel.

INITIAL STARTUP
1. If the system is equipped with a Joystick, we recommend unplugging it at the Control Panel for
the initial operation. This will allow “Fault Displays” to be more recognizable on the Control Panel.
2. Familiarize yourself with the Operation and Programming Guide before beginning.
a. Certain Program Menu settings must be correctly set for proper operation.
i. For example – the Pump Unloading feature must be set correctly for either a gear pump or
piston pump.
ii. Cylinder operations – depend upon the PL dr (plow lift) PA dr (plow angle) and DH dr
(dump hoist) settings being correct. If these settings are low (below 30) the cylinders may
not function.
iii. Auger & Spinner – there are LO & HI settings for each of these functions which will impact
the flow of these circuits.
3. All cylinder selections in the Program Menu should be set for Double Acting even though the
cylinder might be Single Acting. This is required to generate pilot pressures to unlock load-
holding cartridges in the Advantage System.
Small Advantage Systems: Main Relief is 3000 PSI – additionally this relief is used for the Dump
and Plow raise functions. This relief is set high enough to accommodate high pressure scissor
hoists. If you do not require the operating pressure to be this high, adjustment to a lower setting is
recommended. Spreader Relief is 2000 PSI. The downside reliefs on double acting cylinders are
750 PSI.
Mid-size and Large Advantage Systems: Main Relief is 2200 PSI – this relief is used for the spreader
valves, hoist valves, and Plow raise valves. Spreader Relief is 2000 PSI. The downside reliefs on
double acting cylinders are 750 PSI.
For specific instructions on adjusting relief valve settings, see the hydraulic section for your system
size.
