2.2.3 If charging two beacons select the 300mA position on the current selection switch
(see Figure 1).
2.2.4 Connect the pigtail(s) as specified in Table 1 to the terminal screw on the charger.
The red lead of the pigtail goes to the plus screw terminal, and the black lead goes
to the minus screw terminal.
2.2.5 If charging two beacons, parallel pigtail connectors onto the screw terminals. Put
both red leads onto the plus screw terminal and put both black leads to the minus
screw terminal.
2.2.6 Plug the other end of the connector into the MultiBeacon (s).

CONFIGURING CHARGER FOR DUAL INTERNAL BATTERY PACK
MULTIBEACONS (SEE TABLE 1)
2.3.1 Select proper AC input voltage 100/120/220VAC, reference Figure 1 for details.
2.3.2 Select the 300mA position on the current selection switch (see Figure 1).
2.3.3 Connect the pigtail(s) as specified in Table 1 to the terminal screw on the charger.

MAINTENANCE

2.4.1 A quick test to see if the charger is operating is to put a (VOM) Volt/Ohm Meter
across the plus and minus output screw terminals (with no load) and measure
approximately 17.5 Volts +1 Volt.
2.4.2 With the charger connected to the Multibeacon measure the Voltage at the screw
terminals and Voltage measured will provide an indication of the battery's charge. If
around 17V then battery is close to fully charged, if under 12V then cells will require
a full 14-16 hour charge.
2.4.3 The 4324C has two internal in-line fuses. If there is no output as tested in 2.41,
check to see if the fuses are open, reference Figure 1.
