Using the Transcend P
The battery is an optional power source for Transcend. Connect the battery to Transcend and ensure the CPAP
power-up LED flash sequence completes and the LEDs remain off afterwards. This indicates that power is being
supplied to the CPAP and that the CPAP has successfully entered standby mode.
Note
For peak performance, Somnetics recommends keeping the power supply or mobile adaptor connected to
the battery even after the battery is fully charged (the green LED is illuminated).
Note
The P
battery system is not recommended for therapy pressures of 15 or greater.

Using the optional Transcend P
Multi-night Battery System with AC line power
Note
Fully charge the battery before first use as indicated by the LED turning from yellow to green. Charge
time may take as much as five hours for a P
night Battery System.
Note
If an electrical outlet is available, use it. This will charge the battery and allow for maximum use when
AC line power is not available, such as during a power outage. The CPAP device switches automatically
to battery power in such events.
Note
To charge the battery without the CPAP device attached, connect the power supply to the battery.
1.
Insert the barrel plug from the universal AC power supply into the battery.
2.
Insert the barrel plug of the battery into the Transcend ™ power jack so that the plug and cord face
upward.
3.
Plug the AC power supply plug into AC line power.
