5. Setup and Installation
Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of the Power Hub 3. If you are unsure about any steps, please consult a qualified motorcycle technician.
5.1 Safety Precautions
- Always disconnect the motorcycle's battery before beginning any electrical work.
- Ensure all connections are secure and properly insulated to prevent short circuits.
- Do not exceed the maximum total output current of 15A.
- Route cables away from hot engine parts, moving components, and sharp edges.
5.2 Wiring Diagram and Connections
The Power Hub 3 has three input wires and five output wires:
- Input Wires:
- Red Wire (+): Connect to the positive terminal of the motorcycle battery.
- Black Wire (-): Connect to the negative terminal (ground) of the motorcycle battery or chassis.
- Yellow Wire (ACC): Connect to a switched 12V power source that turns on and off with the motorcycle's ignition (e.g., accessory circuit). This triggers the Power Hub 3.
- Output Wires (5x Red/Black pairs): Each pair provides 12V DC power to your accessories. The red wire is positive (+), and the black wire is negative (-). Each output is fused at 3A by default.

5.3 Installation Steps
- Choose a Mounting Location: Select a dry, secure location on your motorcycle, such as under the seat or within a fairing, where the Power Hub 3 will be protected from direct elements and excessive heat. Ensure there is enough space for the unit and its wiring.
- Disconnect Battery: Disconnect the negative (-) terminal of your motorcycle's battery first, followed by the positive (+) terminal.
- Connect Input Wires:
- Connect the Red (+) input wire of the Power Hub 3 to the positive terminal of your motorcycle battery.
- Connect the Black (-) input wire of the Power Hub 3 to the negative terminal of your motorcycle battery or a suitable chassis ground point.
- Connect the Yellow (ACC) input wire to a switched 12V power source on your motorcycle. This is typically a wire that receives power only when the ignition is on. Use a multimeter to identify such a source.
- Connect Accessories: Connect the positive and negative wires of your 12V accessories to the corresponding red (+) and black (-) output wires of the Power Hub 3. Each output channel is independently fused.
- Secure Wiring: Use zip ties or cable clamps to neatly route and secure all wiring, preventing it from chafing, vibrating loose, or interfering with moving parts.
- Reconnect Battery: Reconnect the positive (+) terminal of your motorcycle battery first, then the negative (-) terminal.
- Test Functionality: Turn on your motorcycle's ignition and observe the blue LED on the Power Hub 3. After approximately 10 seconds, the connected accessories should power on. Turn off the ignition; the accessories should power off after a 10-second delay.

6. Operating Instructions
The INNOVV Power Hub 3 operates automatically once properly installed.
- Power On: When the motorcycle's ignition is turned on, the Power Hub 3 will detect the 12V signal from the ACC wire. After a 10-second delay, it will activate power to all connected accessories. The blue LED on the unit will illuminate.
- Power Off: When the motorcycle's ignition is turned off, the Power Hub 3 will detect the loss of signal from the ACC wire. After a 10-second delay, it will cut power to all connected accessories. The blue LED will turn off.
- Fuse Protection: Each output channel is protected by a 3A fuse. If an accessory draws too much current or experiences a short circuit, the corresponding fuse will blow, protecting the Power Hub 3 and other connected devices.
6.1 Fuse Replacement
If an accessory stops receiving power, check its fuse on the Power Hub 3. To replace a blown fuse:
- Identify the blown fuse (the wire inside will be broken).
- Carefully pull out the old fuse from its holder.
- Insert a new 3A automotive blade fuse into the holder. Ensure it is securely seated.
- Test the accessory. If the fuse blows again immediately, there may be a short circuit in the accessory or its wiring, which needs to be addressed before further use.
7. Maintenance
The INNOVV Power Hub 3 is designed for minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can ensure its longevity and reliable performance.
- Visual Inspection: Periodically inspect the unit and all wiring connections for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Ensure all connections remain tight.
- Cleanliness: Keep the unit free from dirt, dust, and moisture. Wipe with a dry, soft cloth if necessary. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Fuse Check: If an accessory malfunctions, check the corresponding fuse as described in the Operating Instructions.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Power Hub 3 does not turn on (no blue LED) |
|
|
| One accessory does not receive power |
|
|
| All accessories turn on/off immediately without delay | ACC wire is not connected to a switched ignition source, but directly to constant 12V. | Ensure the Yellow (ACC) wire is connected to a circuit that only receives power when the ignition is on. |
| Blue LED is solid, but no accessories work |
