Initial Set Up And Connecting The Solo - Excell Solo User Manual

Initial Set Up and Connecting the Solo
Before connection
Insert the first battery pack into any of the three Power Pack slots. The Solo will
start-up and the initial screen (Figure 1) will be displayed. A further two packs can
be inserted if required.
Before first use, check that the Power Packs are fully charged (the battery packs
will typically arrive partially discharged as this is the optimum charge for best
shelf life). Each pack can be tested, by inserting it into the unit. The initial screen
will give the name of the pack and indicate the current level of charge. If a Power
Pack is not fully charged it should be charged using the supplied charger.
It is strongly recommended that the vehicle battery is fully charged when the Solo
is initially connected. The unit can be used to determine the battery status (see
Vehicle charging status on page 10).
If you are placing the Solo on the floor under the car, you may want to attach the
pads to protect the Solo and the floor when moving the Solo.
Connecting the Solo
1. Connect the cable directly to the vehicle battery with the crocodile clips
ensuring that the red crocodile clip is connected to the positive (+) terminal
and the black clip to the (-) terminal.
2. If required use the elongated cable grabber to pull the cables through the
engine bay.
3. Plug the two pole connector into the socket on the underside of the Solo.
