This manual provides instructions for proper setup, operation, and care of your miniSync cable.

Setup

Extending the Cable

To extend the miniSync cable, gently pull both ends of the cable simultaneously. Pulling from only one end or from the middle may cause the retraction mechanism to jam or damage the cable. Extend the cable to your desired length. The cable offers multiple preset lengths for flexibility, extending up to 25 inches (approximately 63.5 cm).

• Device Not Charging:
  • Verify that the USB power adapter or computer USB port is functioning correctly.
  • Ensure both ends of the miniSync cable are securely connected to the power source and your Foxwell F1000B device.
  • Test with a different charging cable or power source if available to isolate the issue.
• Data Synchronization Issues:
  • Confirm that your computer's USB drivers are up to date.
  • Ensure your Foxwell F1000B device is in the correct mode for data transfer (e.g., 'File Transfer' or 'MTP').
