charger connections. Insert optional RXMOD-x analog, relay, or
RXW Manager modules into the Module 1 or Module 2 slot by
plugging the connector into the receptacle on the station. Screw
the module in place with the provided screw. If there is just one
relay module, install it on the right.
If you are installing an RXW Manager module, plug the cable from
the RXW Manager mote into the jack on the module, making sure
the cable is inserted through the bottom of the station case. Do not
reconnect the power on the station until the mote is plugged in as
shown.

charging device to guarantee proper operation.
