3. Auxiliary Jack Function
The Scorpion X1A is equipped with an auxiliary jack labeled “AUX”. The purpose o this jack is to
allow or the connection o certain external devices, such as the FOXPRO® Black Jack or Jack-
Attack decoy and to be able to turn these on and o with the TX200 transmitter. However,
there are some strict electrical limits involved with this jack. I these limits are exceeded,
damage to your Scorpion X1A will result. This damage is not covered by the warranty.
The electrically inclined will want to know that the jack is connected to the drain o an internal
Field E ect Transistor with a maximum current rating o 100mA. The “tip” polarity o the 3.5mm
jack is positive, while the sleeve is negative. I the external device is connected with the polarity

10
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
or this jack would be to control the FOXPRO Black Jack 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 o this manual. You are urged to seek help rom a knowledgeable pro essional be ore
connecting any unapproved device to this jack. Remember that damage to your Scorpion X1A
caused by improper use o the “AUX” jack is not covered by the warranty, nor will FOXPRO be
liable or damage to any device connected to this jack.
4. Using External Speakers
The Scorpion X1A is equipped with two External Speaker Jacks, which allows you to connect up
to two additional speakers. The internal Mylar cone speaker per orms admirably; however, you
may encounter situations that require higher sound levels. By connecting a larger external
speaker(s) to the Scorpion X1A, the volume level can be increased signi icantly. The external
speaker jacks on your Scorpion X1A accept a standard 3.5mm plug. When choosing an external
speaker it is recommended to use one with an impedance rating o 8Ω.
4-1Connecting an External Speaker
Make sure that the Scorpion X1A is turned o be ore connecting an external speaker. Plug the
connector o the external speaker into one o the two external speaker jacks (see image below).
Connecting an external speaker to the Scorpion X1A does not automatically disconnect the
internal speaker. You may want to let it play, although battery li e will be better i you disable
the internal speaker. I you wish to have only the external speaker(s) produce sound, per orm
the ollowing steps.

11
Disabling the Internal Speaker
1. Locate the internal speaker selector jumper on the PC board (see image below).
2. Move the jumper to the “OFF” position.
Internal Speaker Selector jumper configurations.
4-2Connecting two External Speakers
To connect 2 external speakers, plug the connectors o the external speakers into the provided
external speaker jacks “A” and “B.” With 2 speakers connected and the internal speaker
selector set to “ON”, the internal and both external speakers will play simultaneously. The
internal speaker and external speaker “A” are connected to the same channel. When you turn
o speaker “A” with the TX200, they are both turned o . By setting the internal speaker
selector to “OFF”, you will have the ability to turn the external speakers “ON” and “OFF” as you
wish.
4-3External Speaker Control
The Scorpion X1A has the ability to control the external speakers with the TX200 transmitter.
With the remote, you are able to turn the speakers o and on. This can give you a huge
advantage when you are playing a stereo audio ile where you can turn o one o the speakers
there ore turning o one o the channels o the audio ile.
Turning off External Speaker Jacks:
1. Enter the Speaker Control Mode by
simultaneously pressing the AUX and
P2 buttons on the TX200 transmitter.
The screen will look like the image to
the right.
2. The image to the right shows that
both speaker A and B are turned on.
To turn o A, push the P2 button. To
turn on speaker A, push the P1
button.
3. To turn o speaker B, push the P4 button. To turn on speaker B, push the P3 button.
4. To exit the external speaker control screen, push the AUX button a single time.

12
5. Scorpion X1A Configurations
The ollowing image shows the inside o the Scorpion X1A. There are several con iguration
settings that you can modi y by repositioning the jumper associated with each con igurable
element.
5-1 Mono/Stereo Selector
The actory de ault mono mode is best or most situations. This mode combines both right (A)
and le t (B) audio channels and delivers the combined sounds to the internal speaker and both
external speakers. Mono mode should be selected i no external speakers are connected. I you
are using an external speaker(s) and intend to silence the speaker separately, then stereo mode
must be used.

13
Configuring Stereo/Mono Modes
1. Make sure the Scorpion X1A is turned o .
2. Locate the mono/stereo selector jumper. Take note that the jumper has two available
positions. By de ault, the jumper will be in the mono position.
3. To set it to stereo, move the jumper down one pin. To set it to mono, place the
jumper across the top two pins. Re er to the image above or re erence.
Although most calling sounds are recorded in mono, some interesting scenarios are possible i
you have the means to record your own stereo sounds. For instance, you could record a lost
sheep on the right channel and a snarling coyote on the le t channel. By connecting an external
speaker to the Scorpion you could have the sheep sound coming rom the internal speaker and
the coyote sound coming rom the external speaker. This would give the impression that two
physically separate animals were involved. In addition, your Scorpion will allow you to silence
either o the speakers, that is, the sheep or the coyote, independently (see External Speaker
Control in chapter 4).
5-2 Normal (Repeat)/Jukebox Mode
In actory de ault operation, the Scorpion X1A is con igured to repeat mode, where the selected
sound plays in a continuous sound loop. There is a second mode called jukebox mode that will
enable the Scorpion X1A to play sounds sequentially. Jukebox mode is ideal or those who elect
to download and play conventional MP3 music iles.

14
Configuring Play Modes:
1. Make sure that the Scorpion is turned o .
2. Unlock the two latches on the ront and li t up the lid to ully open the Scorpion.
3. Locate the mode selection con iguration pins inside the Scorpion. Re er to the image
above to set the con iguration. Pins 2 and 3 set the con iguration or the actory
de ault repeat mode. Pins 3 and 4 set the con iguration or jukebox mode.
4. Close the lid and proceed with operation.
5-3 Internal Speaker Selector
Please re er to Section 4-1 or more in ormation on con iguring the internal speaker.
5-4 Radio Channel
The de ault radio channel or the Scorpion is “B.” Channel “C” is also available or operation o
the Scorpion i both the Scorpion and TX200 transmitter are con igured to that channel.
Changing the Radio Channel:
1. Make sure that the Scorpion is turned o .
2. Unlock the two latches on the ront and li t up the lid to ully open the Scorpion.
3. Locate the channel selection con iguration pins. Re er to the image above to set the
con iguration. Pins 1 and 2 set operation or channel “B” and pins 2 and 3 set
operation or channel “C”.
4. Turn on the TX200 transmitter.
5. Simultaneously depress the P3 and P4 buttons. This allows you to toggle between
radio channels “A”, “B”, and “C”. The TX200 will not operate the Scorpion on channel
“A”.

15
5-5 About the Internal Memory
The micro SD memory storage card was chosen or use in your Scorpion because o the severe
size constraints we had to work with in developing a high per ormance caller contained in such
a small package. Although this card has enormous memory depth and has a proven track record
o reliability, it’s somewhat more vulnerable to mishandling than the physically larger Compact
Flash cards. The vast majority o users will never have any need to change or replace this
device. Since the Trans-Flash card and its holder are very small and delicate, please be certain
that you have a legitimate reason to do so be ore you attempt to remove this card. Not only is
the holder easily broken by large ingers un amiliar with these cards, the card itsel is vulnerable
to irreparable damage rom static electricity while not secured in its holder. Damage to the card
holder and static damage to the Trans-Flash card are not covered by the product warranty. For
these precautions, FOXPRO does not recommend routine change-outs o the memory card by
users who are not amiliar with these cards and the anti-static precautions required in order to
prevent damage to the card. It takes only a ew moments to change the entire playlist by using
the provided USB port, and this procedure is totally sa e and oolproo . I you eel that you have
a real reason to change the card, please contact FOXPRO customer service or advice.
6. Batteries & Recharging
For optimal per ormance and run times, we recommend high capacity 2300 mAh NiMH (Nickel
Metal Hydride) rechargeable cells rather than alkaline types. When you ask your Scorpion caller
to play at extremely loud volume levels, the current demand on the batteries is much more
than alkaline cells can deliver. Consequently, the run time o these batteries can be very short.
The Zinc Carbon so-called “Heavy Duty” cells are expressly NOT recommended at all. The
per ormance o your Scorpion will be much better with high capacity NiMH batteries.
6-1 Installing Batteries
Unlatch the door (latches are located on the side o the caller.) The battery holder is located
beneath this door. Be care ul to observe battery polarity! Install batteries and replace the
holder into its original location. (Be sure that the battery holder and the power wire are plugged
together.)
IMPORTANT NOTES
The cell polarity alternates. Batteries may be damaged i installed backwards.
Double-check polarity be ore closing the door. NiMH batteries should be charged
be ore irst use.

16
6-2 Using Rechargeable Batteries
Your Scorpion X1A operates on 8 ‘AA’ batteries. For optimal per ormance and run times, we
recommend the use o high-capacity 2300 mAh or greater NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride)
rechargeable batteries rather than alkaline types. You can ind a compatible charging system or
your Scorpion X1A online at: http://www.go oxpro.com
When you ask the Scorpion X1A to play at extremely loud volume levels, the current demand on
the batteries is much more than alkaline cells can deliver. Consequently, the run time o these
batteries can be very short. The Zinc Carbon so-called “Heavy Duty” cells are expressly not
recommended. The per ormance o your Scorpion X1A will be much better with high-capacity
NiMH batteries.
On the ront o your Scorpion X1A, locate the green LED. This is your low power indicator. When
this light begins to blink during operation, it is alerting you that the batteries need replaced or
recharged. I the batteries drop too low to power the Scorpion X1A, it will shut itsel o . Battery
run time is directly related to how loud you operate the Scorpion X1A. Remember that very
loud volumes are rarely needed, as animals hear much better than we do.
WARNIN
Never attempt to charge batteries that are not intended to be recharged! This
includes both Zinc Carbon and alkaline cells. The resulting damage can be serious and
will not be covered by the warranty. For maximum charge e iciency, we recommend
charging your Scorpion X1A in temperatures ranging rom 40°F to 85°F (5°C to 30°C).
WARNIN
Do not mix battery types! For example: never use NiMH rechargeable batteries in
conjunction with non-rechargeable alkaline batteries.
WARNIN
Never connect your Scorpion X1A to an unregulated 12V system (i.e. automotive
systems, high current power supplies, etc.) Serious damage will occur which is not
covered by the warranty. The charge jack is intended only or FOXPRO® chargers.

17
WARNIN
Never attach an unapproved or a non-FOXPRO® charger to your Scorpion X1A!
Damages caused by plugging unapproved charging devices into your Scorpion X1A will
not be covered by warranty.
ENERAL PRECAUTIONS FOR CHAR IN
Disconnect any/all accessory devices that may be attached to the Scorpion X1A prior
to charging. This includes external speakers, auxiliary devices, and USB cables.
Make sure that the rechargeable battery pack is installed in the Scorpion X1A
properly.
Connect the approved FOXPRO charger to the charger jack on the Scorpion X1A and
attach the trans ormer to the appropriate outlet.
Follow the included instructions or the particular FOXPRO charger that you are using.
CHAR IN RECOMMENDATIONS
Remember that NiMH batteries sel -discharge about 1% per day.
Do not leave charging batteries unattended.
Remove batteries rom battery holder when caller will not be used or prolonged
periods to help prevent deep discharge.
Recharge your batteries periodically—even when not in use—to prevent deep
discharge.
WARNIN
While charging your Scorpion X1A, the green LED will illuminate. This LED is NOT an
indicator or a ull charge status. This LED will remain turned-on during the entire
charging cycle.
7. TX200 Detailed Information
This chapter covers the TX200 transmitter in great detail to help you understand all o the
eatures.
7-1 Recall
The recall button allows the previous sound and volume setting to be recalled and played. For
example, let’s say you just switched rom a rabbit distress at volume 18 to a coyote pup distress
at volume 28. By pressing the recall button, the sound will switch rom the coyote pup distress
at volume 28 to the rabbit distress at volume 18. The recall button also works with presets.
