The battery is charged through the black, 4-pin female connector labelled ‘Battery charger’.
See section 5, for details of the internal and external power requirements, internal battery charging and fuses.
A green ‘Output power’ light illuminates when the Void Scanner Wi-Fi box is powered up and able to output power
to the Void Scanner probe.
During most field operations, the lid of the Peli case should remain closed. This is recommended to ensure the
highest level of environmental protection.
The side panel of the Void Scanner Wi-Fi box houses connectors for external power and the Void Scanner probe
itself, as well as ON/OFF power buttons.
The yellow, power/data Void Scanner cable runs from the Void Scanner probe to the green, 4-pin female connector
on the side panel labelled ‘Probe In’. The locking mechanism for this connector is different from the ‘Battery Charger’
connector on the inside panel, so the battery charger and the main Void Scanner cable cannot be connected to the
wrong connectors.
A cable running to a Carlson external lithium-ion battery can be connected to the green, 2-pin male connector
labelled ‘Battery In’ on the side panel.
The two red power buttons on the side panel toggle the Void Scanner Wi-Fi box ON and OFF. One button controls
power from the internal battery, the other controls power from an external battery.
See section
5, for further details on supplying power to the Void Scanner Wi-Fi box.
3.2 Battery charger
A battery charger is supplied with the Void Scanner Wi-Fi box to charge the internal lithium-ion battery.
Connect the battery charger to the 4-pin connector on the inside panel labelled ‘Battery Charger’. Plug the battery
charger itself into a mains power supply. The battery charger is supplied with a selection of plug types to fit mains
sockets around the world.
