Connect Warning Module (Plug) to Generator (Receptacle).
(For weathershield mounts the connection is already made
inside the weathershield)
Connection to generator

In order to avoid battery drain while the
vehicle is off, connect Cab Silencer to a
switched and fused (5A min) circuit.
Place the Cab Silencer within 21” of the
Operator’s PAD AND 4ft away from the
generator. The best location is behind the
operators seat. For Mounting Locations
Diagram, see page 4.
The Cab Silencer may blind the CAM if installed
on the overhead guard.

•Have a Pedestrian with a PAD at
the desired Danger Zone limit *
slowly adjust the “PWM” pot with
a 3/32” slotted screwdriver until
the danger zone alerts at the
desired distance.
•Return bottom cover.
* To ensure proper functionality under all conditions the Danger Zone
limit should not exceed 30’ with DDAC PADs and 39’ with Type A PADs. If
a larger field is required, contact Frederick Energy Products for options.
•The clear plastic cover on the Warning
Module can be turned to reduce the sound.
•If the sound still needs to be reduced,
remove the bottom cover of the generator
with a Phillips head screwdriver.
•Turn on the truck and activate the PAD.
•Adjust the “VOL” pot with a 3/32” slotted
screwdriver. Slowly turn the VOL pot
counterclockwise to decrease the volume.
Do NOT turn beyond the “STOP”.
•Return the bottom cover if Volume is
correct.
•Ensure all other MFGs and PADs within 70ft
are off. Power on 1 PAD at the distance the
field should be set to and leave it there. Power
on the range adjust tool within 4ft of MFG.
The warning module will sound. Hold down
both switches for 5 seconds. Release. Press
the up switch to increase the range and the
down switch to decrease the range. The
maximum danger range using a DDAC PAD is
30’ and for a Type A PAD it is 39’.
•The field is factory set to 30’.
•If the range needs to be reduced, utilize the range
adjust tool (Contact FEP).

Alerting Signals
Factory Field Size @ 12-15V:
Warning: 43ft
Danger: 30ft
Tolerance: ±1ft
PAD (Pedestrian Alert)
•Warning Zone-Series of 3 beeps
•Danger Zone-Continuous signal
To check the field,
hold a PAD at the
edge of the Danger
zone on the long
axis of the
Generator. Slowly
move the PAD from
Danger to Warning.
LOW BATTERY ON PAD: Series of 2 beeps. PAD
will not indicate Alert Signals!
CAM Alert (Truck to Truck) (If Equipped)
•Generator will beep rapidly for 2 seconds when it
receives the CAM signal from the other truck. The
signal will reset when a PAD comes in the Warning
Zone.
To check the field for a Tr uck
with CAM, bring another Truck
with CAM facing each other
outside the Warning Zone.
Slowly move a Truck into the
Warning zone. Rapids beeps
will sound on both trucks. The
standard alarm times out after 5
seconds.
NOTE: A Generator/Truck without a CAM can be used with a
CAM Truck to check the field. The NO CAM Truck will receive
the warning of the CAM Truck. The CAM Truck will not
activate an alarm on it’s own truck.
Functionality of Switches
Switch 1 In the on position
(switch towards point of arrow)
the sound maintains its setting
under all conditions. In the off
position the sound is maximum
when entering a zone for the
first 3 seconds then the sound
level returns to its setting.
Switch 2 in the on position
disables Collision Avoidance

enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will have the right, in addition to its other rights hereunder, to recover its reasonable litigation costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
Nothing in this Section shall preclude any party from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction or exercising any self-help remedies, whether before, during or after
the pendency of any arbitration proceeding. The parties agree that taking any such action does not waive any right that either party has to demand arbitration at any time with respect
to subsequent or amended disputes claimed or filed against a party after commencement of litigation. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, ALL PARTIES AGREE TO WAIVE
ANY RIGHTS TO A JURY OR COURT TRIAL. If any provision of this dispute resolution procedure is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and

V. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENT; MISCELLANEOUS. These Terms constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between You and us. It supersedes any and
all prior or contemporaneous agreement, oral or written, and any other communications, representations, warranties and understanding relating to the subject matter hereof. If there is
a conflict between an oral or written representation of any FEP employee or agent, or any Dealer or Distributor employee or agent, and these Terms, these Terms will prevail. These
Terms will prevail over other rules and policies on the System. Our failure to enforce any provision of these terms shall not be deemed either a waiver of such provision or a waiver of
the right to enforce such provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, then such provision shall be
construed, as nearly as possible, to reflect the intentions of the parties and the other provisions shall remain in full force and effect. The provision of these Terms which, by their terms
should survive termination or expiration of these Terms, shall survive the termination or expiration hereof. FEP may assign this Agreement to any other entity of its choosing, with or
without notice to You. You may not assign these Terms to any other party without the prior written consent of FEP. FEP shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights or remedies
unless such waiver is in writing and signed by FEP. No delay or omission on the part of FEP in exercising any rights or remedies shall operate as a waiver of such rights or remedies or any
other rights or remedies on future occasions. The section titles in these Terms are solely used for the convenience of the parties and have no legal or contractual significance.
