View source for Gen2/Always-On Accessory Power Supply

<onlyinclude>
;Goal
: The [[Gen2]] platform models power the 12V system from a [[DC-DC 12V Converter]] that is only enabled on key-on via signaling from the [[Gen2/Main Bike Board|MBB]].
: Some 12V accessories for security and other purposes benefit from an uninterrupted power supply.

;Applications
* An embedded system Arduino etc.
* implement keyless unlocking
* antilock devices
* bike locators

;Always-On 12V Power Supply
: [http://electricmotorcycleforum.com/boards/index.php?topic=3766.msg22451 Burton's howto with a video and disclaimer]

;Always-On 5V Power Supply
: Two lines to the DC-DC converter are always on at main battery voltage (see [[SDS Platform/Schematic|the SDS platform wiring diagram]]).
:: Doctorbass observed in the above thread that many USB charging adapters can run on DC as easily as AC.
:: It may be risky to try this.
