covered by the warranty. The electrically inclined will want to know that the jack is connected to the drain
of an internal Field Effect Transistor with a maximum current rating of 100mA. The “tip” polarity of the
3.5mm jack is positive, while the sleeve is negative. If the external device is connected with the polarity
reversed, an internal protection diode within the FET will conduct, causing the device to stay on constantly.
The maximum voltage applied to this jack must never exceed 15 volts. Typical uses for this jack would be to
control the FOXPRO
®
Jack-in-the-Box or Jack-Attack Decoy, or to start and stop a video recorder.
Instructions on connecting various devices to the “AUX” jack are beyond the scope of this manual. You are
urged to seek help from a knowledgeable professional before connecting any unapproved device to this
jack. Remember that damage to your Inferno caused by improper use of the “AUX” jack is not covered by
the warranty, nor will FOXPRO
®
be liable for damage to any device connected to this jack.
Using External Speakers
The Inferno is equipped with an external speaker jack which allows you to connect an additional speaker. By
connecting a larger and more efficient external speaker to the Inferno, the volume level can be increased
significantly. You can find a complete selection of external speakers to purchase on the FOXPRO website.
The external speaker jack on your Inferno accepts a standard 3.5mm plug. When selecting an external
speaker, it is recommended to use one with an impedance rating of 8-ohms. NOTE: Be sure the Inferno is
turned OFF before connecting an external speaker!
To connect an external speaker, plug the connector of the external speaker into the external speaker jack
on the side of the Inferno. If you wish to have ONLY the external speaker produce sound, you must disable
the internal speaker by moving the speaker switch to the left or off position.
Inferno Transmitter Detailed Information
5-1 Primary Display Area
When the Inferno transmitter is
powered on, it will display a
startup screen showing the
firmware version information and
then the primary display area
(shown to the right). The top line of
the transmitter displays
“Categories.” The first line down
displays “Favorites/Presets.”
“Favorites/Presets” provides a
mechanism for both creating new
presets as well as initiating
playback of existing presets. The
transmitter can handle up to 10 presets in total. Beneath “Favorites/Presets” is the list of sound categories
or “Sound List” depending upon the transmitter configuration. The bottom line of the transmitter display is
a static status line displaying (in order): mute status, volume level, FOXBANG status, battery level, and
elapsed timer. To navigate through the primary display area and menu options, use the scroll up or scroll
down buttons. The resulting action of pushing scroll up or scroll down is the black highlight bar moving up
or down respectively. To select a menu item, push the play/select button. To move back through the menu
or exit a category or menu option, use the back/menu button.
