6 PAYLOAD INTEGRATION GUIDE

If you're wanting to attach custom hardware to Dingo, you'll have to take care of mechanical mounting, electrical supply,

and software integration. This section aims to equip you with respect to these challenges.

External payloads can be attached to the 80 mm square mounting holes on Dingo's trough cover as shown in Figure 4

and Figure 5. The mounting holes come with M5 screws pre-installed. You may mount your hardware directly onto the

trough cover or you may design and mount a new plate to the trough cover and secure it to the trough cover using M5

screws.

Except for bus-powered USB cameras, most payloads have separate leads for power and data. Data connections may

be brought through the openings in the trough cover and connected directly to the internal computer. Dingo's internal

computer options support USB3 and Ethernet connectivity. With the performance PC, the PCIe Gen3 x16 slot may be

used to supply a GPU or other attachements, as necessary.

Additionally, the internal mounting area may be used for an Ethernet switch, when attaching multiple Ethernet payloads,

or for a PoE power injector as required.

The power lead may likewise be brought through the trough cover, and connected to the user power: unregulated

battery power, regulated 12V power, or regulated 5V power. Remove the front trough cover by removing four flathead

screws and locate the appropriate power connector on the MCU board. Refer to Figure 8 for the location of the user

power connectors. Use DigiKey part WM3701-ND for connecting to 12V/5V power and DigiKey part WM10378-ND for

connecting to VBAT power.
