Charging A Battery Pack - Codan 2110 Series Getting Started Manual

Preparing the transceiver for use

Charging a battery pack

20
Before using your transceiver, you must ensure that the
supplied battery pack is fully charged. You may use:
• a 3121 AC Battery Charger (1 A), which uses a universal
AC mains input of 90–264 V AC
• a 3122 DC Battery Charger (1 A), which may be
powered from any 12–60 V DC source (for example,
from a 12 V DC outlet in a vehicle, or from a 24 V
vehicle battery)
• a 3123 Fast AC Battery Charger (3 A), which uses a
universal AC mains input of 90–264 V AC
• a solar battery charger and lead (1 A, in full sunlight)
• a hand-powered battery charger (1 A at 60 rpm)
The Codan 3121 AC Battery Charger and 3122 DC Battery
Charger are specially designed for low-noise operation, so
receiver performance remains optimal while charging the
battery pack via the front panel. You can continue to use your
transceiver during charging when these chargers are used.
The 3123 Fast AC Battery Charger connects
directly to the battery pack for charging. You
NOTE cannot use this charger through the 19-way or
5-way connector on the front panel of the
transceiver.
Charging is recommended between 0 and 40°C
(104°F). The battery pack will not commence
charging if the temperature is at or above 40°C.
CAUTION
If charging is already in progress, and the
temperature rises to 50°C (122°F), charging will
be stopped automatically.
To prevent damage to the battery pack, Codan
CAUTION recommends the use of the Codan battery
chargers to charge the battery pack.
