Charging The Transmitter; Connections - Core PowerBox Systems V 2.80 Manual

6. Charging the transmitter

If you wish to charge the CORE, the first step is to open the front cover. Locate the two plugs attached to the mains PSU, and
insert either one into the charge socket. If the battery symbol is displayed large and flashing on the screen, this means that you
have a reserve for about 20 – 30 minutes. You must charge your CORE at this point, if not sooner.
For safety reasons the CORE does not feature a battery cut-off. Never allow the transmitter to become deep-discharged!
The LEDs light up red when the batteries are on charge, and green when the charge process is complete. The charger can be
left connected to the CORE after charging without causing damage, as the internal charge control circuits regulate the charge
process completely automatically. The battery charge process takes about 3.5 hours from the fully discharged state. The CORE
can also be recharged while it is switched on, e.g. for protracted programming work.
NOTE
In addition to the bar display at top left on the screen, you can also set up the transmitter to display its own exact battery
voltage on the main screen in the form of a telemetry widget, and set a corresponding alarm. The transmitter is fitted with two
internal 7.2 V Li-Ion batteries of 3400 mAh capacity. Sensible alarm values would be 6.8 V for an orange alarm, and 6.6 V for
NOTE
The mains PSU is the same type used for PowerBox Batteries and PowerPaks, and can also be used to recharge these
batteries.
