2. Battery charging
As soon as the Q-CONN cable is connected, the device will automatically start the battery
charging process if needed.
Battery status led legend:
Green means the battery is fully charged.
Red means the battery is being charged.
Flashing yellow means the battery is at 5% capacity or less
and needs charging.
Charging on the fly while in BLE mode is possible and the connection will be used only to
charge the battery without affecting the BLE communication. This is useful if the battery
is low during a race.
A full battery charge should take around 2 to 4 hours depending on the connection used.
USB 3.0 ports or powered hubs are recommended as they allow the device to draw more
current to charge the battery.
Battery life depends mostly on the LEDs setting used. With the LEDs all off, the battery will
last approximately 50/60h. In case of LEDs all on to high brightness setting, the battery will
last approximately 10h.
