Operator’s Manual
An F Series battery charger with a black and silver case labeled for use with DCI Li-ion or
NiMH battery packs will also charge SE NiMH battery packs (SBP), although the charging
times, battery voltages, and estimated battery lifetimes will be different from F Series Li-ion
battery packs. Older F Series chargers with a dark grey and black case will only charge Li-ion
batteries.
AC/DC Power Setup
Install either the AC adapter or the DC power cord by inserting the charger plug into the
power port of the battery charger and then rotating it a quarter turn in either direction to lock it
in place.
Inserting Charger Plug into Power Port
If using AC power, connect the AC power cord to the AC adapter, then plug the adapter into
an AC power receptacle. If using DC power, plug the DC power cord directly into the DC
power source. Once powered, the LEDs on the battery charger will begin to flash in
succession and the charger will emit a series of beeps.
Charging a Battery Pack
With the charger connected to a power source and the orange LED flashing, insert a battery
pack. The battery pack will be flush with the battery charger when it is properly installed. The
charger will emit a long tone followed by four short beeps indicating an F Series battery pack
has been detected.
During normal charging, the orange and red LEDs will illuminate to indicate the battery pack
is undergoing a fast charge cycle. The battery pack is fully charged when the orange and
green LEDs flash alternately.
