Before you begin installing and commissioning the system please ensure that
you have read this manual thoroughly referring to any supplementary information
provided for the T8-Mini as required.
This document covers the T8-Mini and its connections through the following
process:
1. Recommended Sequence
2. Fitting the SIM
3. Mounting the Unit
4. Wiring and connections
i. Power, Ground and Ignition
ii. Internal GSM/GPS Antenna’s
iii. Driver Interface Button/LED
iv. Dallas i-Button/LED
v. Inputs
vi. Outputs
Some of the items above are optional and you may ignore sections describing
features that your T8-Mini does not have.
Important Notes!
When using the T8-Mini you should remember the following:
1. In order for GPS to function correctly, the unit must have a clear view of
the sky in order to receive data from the satellites. Should this view be
obscured, e.g. the vehicle is parked in a metal-clad building then the
performance of the T8-Mini platform may be impeded. Wherever possible
it is preferable to park the vehicle in a location where the antenna will have
a clear all round view of the sky.
2. Whenever you disconnect the T8-Mini from the power supply it may lose
its stored data and so may take a while to obtain a GPS fix when you plug
it back in. The T8-Mini may also lose certain other information from its
memory particularly if the optional backup battery is not fitted. Please
ensure that you take this into consideration when having the vehicle
serviced, as the vehicle battery connections are often removed during
some service procedures. Tell the service technician that you have a T8-
Mini fitted and request that if possible they use a “vehicle memory saver”
plugged into the cigarette lighter socket – this type of device will support

T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0

Page 8
both the T8-Mini and your vehicle radio system whilst the vehicle battery
is removed.
WARNINGS
1. Do not smoke or use open flames when working near the vehicle.
2. Ensure that the vehicle’s electrical cables, hydraulic lines, fuel lines, and
safety equipment are not damaged during the installation .
3. Ensure that normal control and operation of the vehicle is not impaired by
the installation, particularly the brakes and steering. Ensure that the
airbag operation is not obstructed .
5.1 Recommended Installation Sequence Summary
The following installation sequence is recommended. Please refer to the detailed
instructions elsewhere in this document for further details.
1. Plan the whole installation and determine suitable locations, mounting
arrangements and cable routes for all hardware items.
2. Fit SIM card (if not supplied pre-installed). Please note that the SIM must be
inserted correctly and the SIM PI code removed where necessary using a
mobile phone.
3. Connect internal back-up battery if fitted to the T8-Mini.
4. Temporarily mount the main T8-Mini and wire the Power and Ignition Sense
feeds leaving the in-line fuses out.
5. Check for optimum location of the GPS unit for GPS signal detection using
the engineering modes. The unit will need to be powered up by temporarily
fitting the fuses.
6. Permanently mount the main T8-Mini in its optimum location.
7. Fit the fuses for the T8-Mini.
8. Commission and test the system.
5.2 SIM Card
5.2.1 Before fitting the SIM card
1. If you have not already registered your SIM card with the mobile network, you
should do this before proceeding. Please refer to the appropriate mobile
network operator instructions on how you do this.
2. Make a note of the number on the SIM card (ES ) as well as a note of your
Voice & Data telephone numbers. There is a convenient space in ppendix
B – T8-Mini Records where you can record this information.
3. Ensure that a PI number does not protect the SIM card. If this is the case, it
must be removed before inserting it into the T8-Mini – this can be done by

T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0
Generic T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0.doc
Page 9
inserting the SIM into a suitable mobile telephone and then following your
mobile telephone instruction booklet
.
5.2.2 Fitting the SIM card
Important Note!
When inserting or removing the SIM card from the T8-Mini it is necessary to take
the necessary anti-static (ESD) precautions in order to prevent damage to the
unit, these precautions should also be employed prior to removing the cover from
the unit at any time for service and commissioning purposes.
1. Remove the base of the T8 Mini by flexing the latching lugs on each side in
an outward manner to release it from the main body assembly. This is best
achieved using the leverage tool provided or two medium size flat blade
screw drivers in tandem.
2. Relea e the SIM cradle by liding the ilver locking bar toward the GSM
Antenna and allow it to tilt away from the circuit board. Slide the SIM card
into the lot of the tilting ection, o that the gold contact on the SIM card
are facing downward toward the circuit board and that the traight edge of
the SIM card i in erted fir t toward the hinge.

3. Ensure that the SIM card and cradle are pressed gently towards the circuit
board so that it sits flat and slide the silver latching bar away from the GSM
Antenna to lock it in place.
4. Replace the base of the unit by compressing the two halves firmly together
against the seal until the latching lugs click into place.
5.3 Mounting the T8-Mini
You may choose to mount the T8-mini somewhere covertly e.g. in the boot,
under the parcel-shelf or under the dashboard. Suitable mechanical fixings must
be used (not supplied). If the on-board Accelerometer is to be used then it is
extremely important that the unit is rigidly mounted such that it cannot move.
WARNINGS:
1. Your T8-Mini must be securely mounted in a location where it cannot
interfere with the normal operation of the vehicle. It must OT be located in a
position where the cables or the Unit become a hazard to the driver or
passengers.
2. The T8-Mini has been designed with an IP rating of IP67 and as such can be
located in splash areas within the vehicle. Having said this it is recommended
that the unit is not installed inside the engine compartment or areas where it
may come into regular contact with fluids and corrosive substances.
5.4 T8 Wiring and Connections
Important Notes!
1. Unauthorised changes or alterations to the equipment or the installation will
invalidate certification issued by the Approved Accreditation Body and could
also affect the vehicle manufacturer’s warranty.
2. The notes below should be read in conjunction with fig.1 –T8 Mini Wiring
Diagrams.
3. All wiring should be professionally connected to the vehicle electrics via
soldered connections using automotive grade fuse holders and fuses. In
situations where the soldered connections are prohibited by the vehicle
manufacturer and or the customer then AD-Link fuses may be used to pick up
the appropriate Power and Ignition supplies.
4. All wiring should be safely secured to avoid damage from, or chaffing by, any
hot or moving parts.
5. Position the wiring carefully to avoid the possibility of snagging or impact
damage during the normal use of the vehicle.

T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0
Generic T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0.doc
Page 11
6. Before any holes are drilled, check that no parts, wires, pipes or tanks could
be damaged at the exit point of the hole. Suitable grommets must be used
where wires are routed through body panels to prevent chaffing and short
circuits to the chassis.
7. Leave the fuses out of their holders until the installation is complete.
5.4.1 Cable and ccessory Wiring Options
The T8-Mini platform i provided with a ingle cable and doe not have any plug
and play acce orie at thi tage.
However the following ection will include pecific reference a to how to wire
up variou acce orie to deliver the functionality of the firmware.
The electrical connection for the current functionality can be found in the wiring
diagram in Appendix A.
5.4.2 Internal GSM/GPS Antenna
The T8 Mini contains an internal GSM antenna and an internal GPS antenna and
therefore the location of the unit is important to optimise the performance. The
unit should be positioned horizontally and located in a position where it will have
an unobstructed view of the sky. The ideal location in most cars is in the centre
top of the dashboard or behind the instrument cluster as far forward in the vehicle
as possible with the top of the unit facing skywards.
OTE
The GSM antenna is now internal to the unit so care must be taken as to where
the unit is mounted.
Important ote!
The performance of the equipment may be impeded if the unit is mounted
beneath or in very close proximity to electrically conductive materials,
such as metal, certain types of plastic, metalized film or laminate
windscreens. If this applies to your vehicle please install the antenna and
unit elsewhere.
20 cm (7.87 inch) separation distance between the unit and all persons
must be maintained at all times.
When you commission the T8-Mini you will be able to carry out tests to
determine whether suitable GSM and GPS signals are being received. If in doubt
about the suitability of your planned location, it is recommended that you only
temporarily install the unit until you are able to carry out the appropriate
engineering tests. (See Section 5 – Engineering Mode)

5.4.3 Power Ground and Ignition Installation
Below i a wiring block diagram of the T8 Mini y tem which will be covered in
detail within the following ection .
There i ONLY a ingle cable a embly upplied with the T8-Mini unit and
con i t of a traight 8 pin M-12 connector with un-terminated end (CAB050).
This cable consists of an 8 pin M-12 connector and determines the functionality
that is available to the user. Regardless of which cable is used the Power,
Ground and Ignition connections are identical and should be wired as follows.
Wire
Colour
Description Notes
Red Vehicle Supply
Positive (+ve)
Connect to a permanent Positive supply (8 to 32V) via a 2
amp in-line fuse.
Brown Vehicle Supply
egative (-ve)
Connect to permanent egative supply.
Blue Ignition Sense
Positive (+ve)
switched (active
high)
Connect to a switched ignition line via a 1 amp in-line
fuse. This ignition line should be a true engine running
signal to ensure that journeys are detected correctly. This
must be a primary or “D circuit” connection. An auxiliary
ignition connection is NOT acceptable as this will result in
incorrect operation of the product.
It is highly desirable that these connections are soldered to ensure a good
permanent connection to the vehicle supply and ignition points. It is not the
intention of this manual to cover all electrical connection points for all vehicle
types and therefore the experience of qualified fitting staff is essential to ensure
that suitable location points are found for the vehicle in question. Alternatively
Ad-Link connections connected to the fuse board of the vehicle can be used if a
on Invasive installation is required. For further information on Ad-Link fuses
please E-mail [email protected] for further information.
It is strongly recommended that power pick up points are chosen that DO OT
form part of an auxiliary supply such as cigar lighter or auxiliary power sockets as
these can be compromised by the connectivity of third party devices such as
power chargers, invertors, tools etc.

5.4.4 Driver Interface Button (Optional)
The T8-mini provides a single wire interface that can be used for the driver
interface button and/ this is also multiplexed as a bidirectional Dallas 1-wire
interface. (See section below)
In order to use this pin as driver button simply connect a switch between this pin
and ground as shown in the wiring diagram in Appendix A. If the Driver button is
fitted with an LED for use as business/Private indication then the LED will also
need to be wired as shown in the diagram.
5.4.5 Driver ID Dallas Interface (Optional)
The T8-mini also implements the required driving circuitry to use this pin as a
Dallas 1-wire interface. This allows an easier implementation of the 1-wire
protocol.
5.4.6 Digital Inputs/ nalog Inputs/Digital Outputs
The T8-Mini O LY has two I/O pins available on the M12 connector. These two
pins (3, Pink = I/O 0) (7,Green = I/O 1) can be used for digital inputs/ analog
inputs or as outputs. If the user is operating the product with the Trakm8
application then both of these I/O have been defined as Outputs to operate the
Red LED and Immobilizer functions.
5.4.6.1 Digital Inputs
All of the T8 Mini inputs (including the ignition) have the same specification and
are capable of detecting a signal from 0v to +32v. The input is deemed to have
“GONE HIGH” when the voltage is greater than 5v and “GONE LOW” when the
voltage is less than 2v (including the open circuit state see below).
Therefore the connection of an input wire into a vehicle circuit varies depending
on the voltage of the circuit being monitored and the direction of state change
you are monitoring for.
In the open circuit state all T8 Mini input circuits are in the low state and therefore
careful consideration must be given when wiring up the input to ensure the
change of state produces the required trigger you are after especially if you want
to detect both the “GOES HIGH” and “GOES LOW” state change.

T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0
Generic T8-Mini Installation otes v1.0.doc
Page 14
Below are some examples of monitoring circuit state changes.
Signal Transition from 0V to +12v/+24v
If the input monitoring is a signal or switch circuit that is producing the actual
voltage transition then the input wire can be connected directly to the circuit and
it should be possible to detect both state transitions.
Signal Transition from open circuit to +12v/+24v
If the input monitoring requires the detection of a switch closing to supply
(+12v/+24v) then the input is simply wired to the normally open side the switch.
Signal Transition from >5v to +12v/+24v
If the input monitoring requires the detection of a voltage change that does not
transition below 2v then a potential divider is required to drop the lower voltage
state into the triggering region. To keep the current drain to a minimum the
combined resistance value should be greater than 10K to keep the current below
1mA.
Signal Transition from open circuit to 0V
If the input monitoring requires the detection of both state transitions of a switch
switching from open circuit to ground, then a pull up resistor is required to
generate the “GOES HIGH” state when the switch becomes open circuit. Again
the resistor value should be greater than 10K to keep the current drain to a
minimum when the circuit is closed.
5.4.6.2 nalogue Inputs
The T8 Mini input are capable of being configured a Analogue input with a 12
bit re olution. Thi i currently not implemented in the Trakm8 application.
5.4.6.3 Digital Outputs
The T8-Mini I/O is capable of being configured as outputs. The outputs are
automotive grade open collector FET devices that drive the output to ground
when active. The FET is capable of sinking up to 500mA and is therefore suitable
for driving lamps, buzzers and relays as required.
The Trakm8 application is currently using these to drive the Red Led and the
immobiliser functions implemented in the T8.

5.4.7 T8-Mini Immobiliser Feature.
Important Notes!
1. Unless local law permits the T8-Mini Immobiliser MUST NOT be connected
in such a way that it would be possible to disable the vehicle whilst it is under
way. The immobiliser must be wired in such a way that it is only breaking a
cranking circuit of the vehicle. Careful consideration must be observed when
choosing this circuit as modern vehicles usually have these types of circuit
monitored by the ECU of the vehicle. This could lead to a malfunction of the
vehicle’s own monitoring system and may invalidate the manufacturer’s
warranty if the correct circuit is not chosen. (If in doubt then please contact
the vehicle manufacturer for advice).
2. When the Immobiliser is driven in all modes other than “OTA” the T8 Mini is
enabling the relay and utilising the normally open contacts of the relay to un-
immobilise the vehicle. Therefore if the main power and internal battery
backup are removed, then the T8-Mini Immobiliser will default secure so as
to render the vehicle immobilised
3. When the immobiliser is driven in In “OTA” mode of operation the T8 Mini is
enabling the relay and utilising the normally closed contacts of the relay to
immobilise the vehicle. Therefore when it is in the unpowered state the T8-
Mini Immobiliser is inactive and the vehicle will always start.
(See the wiring diagram in Appendix A).
The output of the T8-Mini consists of an Open collector FET capable of sinking
up to 500mA.
This is more than adequate to drive an automotive grade relay. The diagram in
Appendix A shows a normally open relay being driven being driven by output 0
(m12 pin 3).
If modes other than “OTA” are used then the normally open set of contacts
(30/87) are used.
If “OTA” mode is being used then the normally closed set of contacts (30/87a)
are used.

6 Testing
Once installed the equipment should be tested to ensure that it is operating
satisfactorily and that the positions of the installed items do not impair the driver’s
ability to control and operate the vehicle in any way.
The T8 Mini does not contain any visual indicators on the case such that it does
OT impact on its IP67 rating. Therefore the only means a fitter has of testing
the T8 Mini is to use the engineering screens in the firmware and liaise with the
commissioning team as to the integrity of the data being sent to the server. The
fitter will need to make up a test lead, following the information given in Appendix
A such that the driver button and LED can be used for engineering Mode” testing.
If this is OT done then the only means for testing is through the commissioning
team and the server data integrity.

Engineering Mode
The T8 has an engineering mode to assist installation and test engineers out in
the field. Engineering Mode is entered by pressing the driver id button >10
times or by issuing the SETE G command. The led will come on solid for a
short period indicating that it is in engineering mode. It will then flash once
indicating that it is in screen one. Subsequent single presses of the button will
advance the engineering mode through the other engineering screens. Upon
entering each engineering screen the led will flash the appropriate number of
times indicative of the screen number you have just entered.
Pressing the button >10 times (but less than 20) will exit the engineering mode.

Server data
Follow the vendor specific commissioning procedure to ensure that your T8-
Mini is communicating all the implemented functional data to the host server.
Pay particular attention if the driver interface button is fitted that both Business
and private journeys are tested along with the Panic function if implemented. If
the Dallas receiver is fitted then test the presence of a driver by presenting a
Dallas tag and then check that the ID is detected in the server data.
