Power Adapter Cable; Connect Power Adapter Cable - Honeywell VX6 Installation Instructions Manual

Power Adapter Cable

Honeywell offers an adapter cable (part no. 9000A077CBLPWRADPTR) to adapt certain Honeywell 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.
Note: For more information on the
appropriate section earlier in this manual.
