Machine Telematics Install

To access machine performance information on the Raven field computer, the Viper® 4 or Viper® 4+ field computer must be connected to the machine ISOBUS using one of the available diagnostic tee adapter cables.

Note:  Review the Telematics Compatibility Matrix for information regarding diagnostic tee adapter cables for compatible equipment.

General Installation

  1. Locate the vehicle diagnostic port and connect the large, 9-pin connector on the diagnostic tee adapter cable.

    Note:  The diagnostic tee adapter cable provides a pass-through or spare diagnostic connector.

    If a device is already connected to the diagnostic port, disconnect it from the vehicle port and reconnect it to the pass-through connector on the diagnostic tee adapter cable.

  2. Route the 7-pin connectors on diagnostic tee adapter cable to Port 5 on the back of the Viper® 4 or Viper® 4+ field computer in the machine cab.
  3. If another cable is already connected to Port 5 on the field computer, relocate the cable to the mating connector on the diagnostics tee adapter cable.

  1. Locate the electrical panel on the right side of the cab.

  2. Disconnect the X-63 connector plugged into the front bulkhead receptacle.
  3. Remove the retaining nut from the bulkhead connector and pull the connector out of the electrical panel.
  4. Remove the dust plug from cavity #19 and from cavity #20 of the connector.
  5. Locate the Raven vehicle CAN cable (P/N 115-2001-074). Insert the yellow wire into cavity #19, and insert the green wire into cavity #20.

  6. Identify the X-59 J1939 connector inside the electrical panel and remove the dust plug.

  7. Connect the X-59 connector to the Raven vehicle CAN cable.

  8. Reinstall the bulkhead connector and reconnect the X-63 connector.
