Bullard XT Series User Manual

Introduction
Your Bullard XT Series Thermal Imager is equipped with a sealed, internal
long-life lithium ion battery pack as well as advanced wireless charging
technology for use with the included Desktop Charger or optional Truck
Mount Charger. These easy to use charging stations are the fastest way to
charge your Bullard XT Series Thermal Imager's battery.
Desktop Charger (XTCHARGERBASE)
Installation and Usage
To install the Desktop Charger, select a convenient tabletop location
to place the unit and connect the included power supply to a nearby
AC power outlet. Insert the power supply's output power pin into the
receptacle on the rear of the charger. When power is first applied to the
charger, all three LEDs will briefly illuminate as a bulb check cycle, after
which the WHITE LED will remain illuminated. This indicates the Charger
unit is powered on and ready for use (Figure 1).
To charge the XT Thermal Imager's battery in the Desktop Charger, place
the imager on the charger with the display side being cradled by the
upright portion of the charger and the four holes on the bottom side of
the thermal imager aligned with the four pins of the Interface Ring. When
seated correctly, the charger will emit a short beep and a BLUE LED will
illuminate on the right side of the charger. This indicates a connection
with the imager. When the connection has been verified and the battery
is charging, the thermal imager's power button LED will pulse RED. When
fully charged, the same LED will change to steady GREEN.
If there is a problem with the charger or the connection with the imager,
the charger will illuminate an AMBER LED, located beneath the BLUE
LED. In this event, remove and attempt to re-seat the imager. If the issue
persists, contact Bullard Customer Service (Figure 2).
Truck Mount Charger (XTTRUCKMOUNT)
Installation
The XT Series Truck Mount Charger utilizes the same wireless charging
mechanism as the Desktop Charger but is is designed to be mounted
securely in accordance with NFPA 1901-14.1.10.2 and DIN EN 1846-2
5.1.2.2.2 when storage of the Imager in a vehicle is required. Additionally,
although the Truck Mount Charger is designed for permanent vehicle
installation, you may also choose to use this unit in a free-standing
manner. Free-standing use is not recommended for vehicles. The same
AC power supply functions with both the Truck Mount and Desktop
Chargers, but this power supply is optional with the Truck Mount Charger
(XTCHARGEPWR).
To install the Truck Mount Charger in a vehicle, select a convenient
location in either a vertical or horizontal orientation. Leave sufficient
clearance above the Charger for installation of the imager, below the
Charger (if additional accessories will be stored on the Charger), and in
front of the Charger for removal and reinstallation of the imager (Figure
3). A mounting template is included with the Charger as a reference for
clearance requirements and mounting hole spacing. Mount the Charger
using the included (4) 5/16" self-tapping hex screws. No drill holes are
required because of this type of screw.

The unit is provided with two wires for attachment to the power supply
in the vehicle. The wires are color-coded, with red signifying the positive
(+) conductor and white signifying the negative (-) conductor. Provide
power to the mounting location from a 5-Ampere fused power source
with output of 12-24 VDC. For best results, the unit should be connected
to an unswitched circuit which continues to provide power when the
vehicle is not in use so that a mounted imager will remain charged at
all times. Your vehicle maintenance technician can advise as to the best
wiring method for each individual apparatus. Securely fasten the vehicle's
power supply wiring to the matching positive and negative wires from the
Charger by soldering or using twist-on or crimp-style connectors. Consult
an electrician if you experience difficulty or require assistance.
