AltRider Explains PDM60 (Power Distribution Module)

[@jeffkatzer]

Nice work on that video. Very clean and concise.

I have a 12v socket on my handlebar directly wired to the battery. can I recharge my battery if the 12v socket is connected to the pdm60 instead?

Anyone use the PDM60 with sargent cycles heated seat/controller? Even though I have that circuit set not to have a delayed power off, it acts like it does (but just partial power), or more likely, some sort of vampire/residual power. I power off the GPS, heated grips, LED lighting, etc and issues. But the sargent controller stays dimly lit, flashing, for a few minutes before the "power runs out."

From support... Hi Michael, Sorry for the delay in response, we have limited hours during the holidays. I think you’re on track with the solution. The PDM60 design was fairly specific in its function and it has some limitations. You’ve discovered one of the limitations. Whenever any circuit is live all the status leds will be on. The purpose was to always show all the circuits status when the PDM60 is on. When any output is live, the PDM60 is on. Active (on) outputs are green, inactive circuits are amber/orange. Your PDM60 is functioning correctly. The led on the heated gear controller lights due to the very little power required to light an led. There is not enough power in the inactive state to power the heated gear but just enough to light the indicator led. Thanks, Aron

@@michaelbennett8847 hmmm... i was wondering the same thing... 3 years you have waited. yay.

What do you mean by "move along the wire to find the fault"?

[@JamBot34]

Follow the wire that is connected to that light. Testing at different connection points. This is an elementary concept in electronics, and perhaps why it wasn’t explicitly demonstrated in a product pitch video.

great video !!

Thanks!

The circuits are not individually programable, not possible to have six different time dely starts and six individual time delay stops.
