1-3 Truck Pro: Power Requirements
The FOXPRO Truck Pro requires an external 12VDC power source, such as a car battery. It is
shipped from the factory with a power cable that connects to the cigarette lighter plugs found
in most motor vehicles. To power-up the Truck Pro, connect one end of the cable to an available
cigarette lighter plug in your vehicle and then connect the other end to the Truck Pro power
cable.
Please note that the power plug features a 5A slow-blow glass inline fuse
. If you are
using your own power cables rather than the supplied cables (for example: wiring directly to a
car battery), be sure that you use a 5A fuse on the positive side. FOXPRO has alternate power
cables available to connect directly to a battery rather than the cigarette lighter plug. Please
contact the FOXPRO Sales Team at 866-463-6977 for ordering information.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If you are powering the Truck Pro from your vehicles battery, make sure that the
battery is healthy and that your alternator is in good shape. If you frequently find
that your vehicle will not start without a jump, then we recommend that you do
not use the Truck Pro until your vehicle has been repaired by an automotive repair
specialist. The Truck Pro is designed to detect a low battery state before your
vehicle battery is rendered incapable of starting your vehicle. However, it is
impossible to account for the age and other factors associated with your particular
battery. The Truck Pro will start detecting a low battery state at 11.7V and will stop
operating at 11.5V. An extended run time threshold can be set to allow it to drop
to 10.5V before it stops operating. Please see section 11-9 for more information on
modifying this value.
