Typical Connection Diagram
You can connect only one power source which is the Freedom X | XC series.
The Combox has no power switch. As long as the Combox and the Freedom X | XC
series are connected and Freedom X | XC series is connected to a battery, the
Combox will receive power.
Only one auxiliary device can be connected at any time. In this diagram,
a universal control monitor is connected via the RV-C port.
****CAN network 120-ohm termination may be required.

Troubleshooting
| PROBLEM | CAUSE | SOLUTION |
|---|---|---|
| The Com box’s LED indicators do not seem to be lighting up. | The Combox is not | |
| receiving power. | Check that the Freedom X I XC series is connected to a |
