deteriorate. Always route the cable so that it does not interfere with safe operation and
maintenance of the vehicle.
Note:If the vehicle is equipped with a panel containing Silicon Controller Rectifiers (SCR’s),
avoid routing the power cable in close proximity to these devices.
5. Provide mechanical support for the cable by securing it to the vehicle structure at
approximately one foot intervals, taking care not to over tighten and pinch conductors or
penetrate outer cable jacket.
6. Connect the output end of the extension cable to the power connector on the bottom of the
VX6 by aligning the water-tight connector to the power connector; push down on the water-
tight connector and twist it to fasten securely.
7. Turn the VX6 on.
Power Adapter Cable
LXE offers an adapter cable (part no. 9000A077CBLPWRADPTR) to adapt certain VX1, VX2 or
VX4 DC power supplies to the VX6. Please read and follow all cautions below to determine if
your present power supply can be used with the VX6.
Caution:
This document assumes the VX1/2/4 DC power cable, if applicable, is already
properly connected to your vehicle. If this is not the case, please refer to the
“VX1 User’s Guide”, “VX2 User’s Guide” or “VX4 User’s Guide” for direct vehicle
connection details.
Caution:
For use only with VX1/2/4 DC power cables with yellow colored cable
containing 18AWG wires.
Do not use this cable with VX1/2/4 DC power cables with gray colored cable
containing 22AWG wires. These power cables must be replaced with a
VX5/6/7 power cable.
Caution:
When a DC power cable that is eight feet or longer is in a 12V application,
there may be an excessive voltage drop over the longer cable. If this occurs,
a new power cable is required.
Caution:
Do not use this adapter with AC power supplies originally designed for the
1380, 1390, VX1, VX2 or VX4. These power supplies do not have sufficient
power for the VX6.
