    CAUTION: connecting the batteries with reversed polarity will instantly destroy the two regulators in the Gemini II. If this should happen, the regulator monitor causes the two LEDs to flash alternately red and green to indicate the fault.

  • Page 6: B) Using The Magnetic Trigger

    This setting can only be changed using the SensorSwitch. This is the procedure for setting the various battery types: - Connect both batteries, and switch on the Gemini II. - Hold the Set button pressed in, and observe the LEDs.

  • Page 7: Setting The Output Voltage

    5. SETTING THE OUTPUT VOLTAGE It is possible to set your PowerBox Gemini II to either of two different output voltages. The default stabilised voltage (as delivered) is 5.9 Volt. The performance of your PowerBox Gemini II is around 30% higher when opera- ting at 7.4 Volt due to the reduced dissipated power.
  • Page 8 CAUTION: before you set the unit to 7.4 V it is essential to check that all consu- mer units connected to the system - all servos, receiver, gyro, etc. - are expressly approved for use with the higher voltage. Information on this matter can be found in the instructions provided by the equipment manufacturers.
