Setting the Combination Locks
Your new Intelligent Laptop Computer Cart comes equipped with two
re-settable Combination Padlocks. You can program them with the
same combination or different combinations – the choice is yours.
Each lock starts with 0-0-0-0. Follow the directions with the lock for
changing the combination. Remember to depress the shackle before
un-engaging it from the lock.
•
Only One Electrical Plug
to the wall outlet reduces nuisance tripping of circuit breakers.
• “
Round Robin”
sequencing evaluates the demand for power from each electrical strip of ten computers, concentrating on those batteries that have the most
demand for power.
• “Round Robin” also allows each electrical strip time to cool down.
Cooler batteries last longer
, and extended battery life saves you money.
• A
Divider Panel
separates the computer/battery from the transformer, minimizing the transformer’s heat impact on the battery … cooler batteries last longer.
• The Brain recognizes as batteries become charged, and
sends only enough power
to keep the batteries well within their thermal limits, drawing only the
required power and saving you money.
• A single
Mode Button
lets you cycle through the various settings, while the LED lights help keep track of what the power system is doing.
•
Two Auxiliary Outlets
on the top of the cart let you use a video projector or a printer with confidence, since the Brain will dedicate the power to those
accessories when you need to use them.
Accidentally overloading the circuit is minimized!

USER’S GUIDE
Always-On Electrical Outlet
Under the Brain, accessible from the rear of the
cart, is one unique Electrical Outlet, rated for 1
Amp. This outlet is for a Wireless Access Point.
The Wireless Access Point’s power
cord can be routed through the cart at
the side cord-pass-thru-hole, opposite
the cart’s power cord. Remember, the
outlet is maximum 1 Amp, only.
Left alone, the Brain will automatically turn on the
Yellow
light, which
means that all power is being sent to charge the computer batteries.
