Power Adapter Cable
LXE offers an adapter cable (part no. 9000A077CBLPWRADPTR) to adapt certain VX1, VX2 or
VX4 DC power supplies to the VX7. Please read and follow all cautions below to determine if
your present power supply can be used with the VX7.
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 VX7.
Note: For more information on the 12-80V DC direct, UPS battery pack and extension cable
connections please refer to the appropriate section earlier in this manual.
How To Connect Power Adapter Cable
1. The VX7 must be turned off and the power cable must be UNPLUGGED from the VX7.
2. Attach the smaller end of the Power Adapter Cable to the VX1/2/4 power cable by aligning
the water-tight connector pins to the power cable connector. Push down on the water-tight
connector and twist it to fasten securely.
3. Connect the larger end of the Power Cable directly to the computer or to a UPS battery pack,
as desired. Please refer to the appropriate section earlier in this manual for UPS battery pack
connection details.
