SAFETY, PROTECTION, AND MODIFICATION OF THE PRODUCT Installation should protect the case from physical impacts to mitigate degradation of the case. The TIM-Plus requires a mechanical protection for the enclosure is required. This can be purchased from TRIG or the end user is to provide a protection for the enclosure during normal operation. Product is intended for outdoor use. If the temperature rating on the label or this manual differ the more restrictive temperature range will apply to that device.
Description There are two TIM versions. One in 100x75x22 (mm) enclosure, and one 100x100x40 (mm). The larger version also has an option of an external connection with a three-pin connector. FIGURE 2 TIM BASIC FIGURE 1 TIM PLUS W/CONNECTOR Revision - 1.
Labels A sample of the label for each box is below. The label will be located on the area indented case top. FIGURE 3 TIM BASIC LABEL FIGURE 4 TIM PLUS LABEL Revision - 1.
Intrinsic Safety Wiring Information All wiring should be performed to CEC and NEC standards, as well as any additional local standards. Cable diameter should fall within 3.0 to 6.0 mm to ensure IP rating is maintained. The three-pin connector on the TIM Plus is an IS connection as identified by the label on the side of the case. Please see below for pin layout. Ensure that the pins are connected properly before plugging in the connector.
The cover consists of a PETG shield, two pan-head screws, two bottom screws (pan or flat depending on mounting), a hex standoff and two wide washers. Installing a new cover Remove the side flaps covering the mounting holes of the case. Insert the bottom screw through the mounting hole, loosely attaching the hex standoff to keep it from falling. Using pliers or a socket, holding the hex standoff tighten the bottom screw tight. Report for the other side.
Installation with Mounting Options Ensure that • • • • • Installation occurs in a non-hazardous area.
Option 3: Pole Mounting Bracket The TIM box can be mounted with two optional pole mounting brackets combined with either stainless steel or plastic bands. Option 4: Mounting Plate The TIM can be provided with a mounting plate. This is useful when looking at attaching with selftapping screws or M3 Adhesive tape. Revision - 1.

Setup Pairing with Globehopper Requires an NFC enabled phone and the Nexxiot App. See latest Globehopper documentation for paring instructions. Contact info@transrailinnovation.com if you require an updated copy. Revision - 1.
Magnetic Sensor When using the TIM for a magnetic sensing application, ensure the magnet is properly installed on the designated side. This will be marked on the TIM box to aid in proper alignment. The TIM is by default setup to detect the magnet when within 4” or less and will ignore the magnet if it’s at 6” or greater. If your application is different, please work with you installation tech for a customized solution.
Acceleration Sensor When using the TIM for a TIM is being used as an acceleration sensor, ensure the TIM box will not be damaged or hit during the full movements of where it is mounted. External TIM Connect If using the TIM Connect version of the product, ensure that the external cabling will not get damaged in normal operations. Contact TRIG for additional information regarding connecting to external sensors. Any external sensors connected should adhere to the provided Descriptive System Document.
Mounting Locations for Specific Uses See the following reference images for recommendations for mounting the TIM in different configurations. Please check with the manufacturer of the specific wagon type or car type onto which the TIM is to be mounted to get approval for the chosen mounting location Handbrake Activation Sensor Mount on the handbrake area that see rotation during activation.
