Before connecting the xHUB Signal wires, you
must test which kill switch principle is used by
your engine manufacturer.
Common – Grey – Always used when
connecting the MOB+ xHUB Signal wires.
Open to stop (OS) – Blue – Used when your
existing system is a Open to stop kill switch
system.
Close to stop (CS) – Orange – Used when your
existing system is a Close to stop kill switch
system.
The engine kill switch system principle varies across
different engine manufacturers, and
different year of model, being Open to stop or
Close to stop principle. Some existing kill switches
has three wires, you still only need to connect two
as described in this manual. The principle in the
existing mechanical kill switch is the same as the
xHUB Signal wires, where the three wires makes
the existing kill switch compatible with both Open
to stop and Close to stop kill switch systems.
