The Spectra Precision 024015 is a 25-foot, 12-volt machine power cable designed to deliver continuous electrical power directly from your equipment to LR series laser receivers. Built for professional machine control operations on dozers, excavators, and motor graders, this cable eliminates dependence on internal batteries so your receiver stays live throughout long grading sessions and multi-day earthwork projects. When productivity depends on uninterrupted grade control, the 024015 keeps your system running from machine start to shutdown.
Overview & Jobsite Applications
Machine control workflows demand reliable, always-on receiver performance. The 024015 taps into your machine's 12-volt electrical system through a rugged 7-pin connection and routes continuous power directly to your LR series receiver. The 25-foot cable length provides enough reach to mount the receiver at optimal mast positions on larger machines without straining connections or creating tripping hazards in the cab. Whether you're cutting subgrade on a large dozer, finishing slopes with a motor grader, or working tight utility excavation, this cable keeps your receiver performing at full sensitivity without mid-day battery swaps.

Job Applications
Dozer Grading Operations: Mount your LR receiver on the blade mast and connect the 024015 to your dozer's 12-volt system. The receiver stays powered all day without pulling blade control to swap batteries, keeping your grade control system productive from first cut to final pass.
Motor Grader Finish Work: Motor graders working long road base or subgrade sections put heavy demands on receiver runtime. The 024015 connects to the machine's electrical system so operators can focus on blade angle and grade without monitoring battery levels.
Excavator Slope and Depth Control: On excavators using LR receivers for bucket depth or slope indication, the 024015 powers the receiver directly from the machine, supporting continuous monitoring during repetitive dig cycles on utility or foundation work.
Multi-Shift Earthwork Projects: On projects running two or three shifts, battery management becomes a real operational burden. The 024015 removes that variable entirely — the receiver powers on with the machine and powers off with it, shift after shift.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What receivers is the Spectra 024015 compatible with?
- The 024015 is designed for use with Spectra Precision LR series laser receivers used in machine control applications. If you are unsure whether this cable is compatible with your specific receiver model, contact Express Tools before ordering.
- Does this cable completely replace internal receiver batteries?
- Yes. When the 024015 is connected and the machine's electrical system is active, the receiver draws power from the machine rather than its internal batteries. This allows continuous operation without monitoring or replacing batteries during the shift.
- Is 25 feet long enough for most machine setups?
- For the majority of dozer, motor grader, and excavator configurations, 25 feet provides sufficient length to route the cable from the machine's power source to the receiver mast without excess slack. Verify your specific machine's cab-to-mast distance before ordering if you have an unusually large machine or non-standard mast location.
- What type of connector does the 024015 use?
- The 024015 uses a 7-pin connector compatible with the Spectra Precision LR series receiver interface and standard machine control power connections. Ensure your machine's power outlet and receiver model both support this connector type before installation.
