Overload Protection (30 Unit Model)
Charging 30 laptop computers at one time combined with the power demands of existing laptop battery technology can
overload a typical 15 amp circuit. Anthro’s 30 Unit Laptop Storage Cart is equipped with a built-in timing device that auto-
matically switches the AC power supply from one side of the Cart to the other.

Setting Minutes
How It Works:
When the Cart’s external control switch is set to internal power (to charge the laptops), the timer module will provide power
to the Primary Panel (the side of the cart with the power cord) for the amount of time indicated on the Timer Adjustment
(shown right). When that time expires, the cart will provide power to the Secondary Panel (the other side of the cart) until
the time expires. The cart will continue to alternate sides until the external control switch is changed or the cart is un-
plugged. Every time power is turned off and then restored to the cart, power goes to the Primary Panel first. An indicator
light on the Control Module (located on the bottom shelf inside the cart) indicates which side of the cart is being charged.
The timer is factory-set on a 25-minute cycle. Laptops and equipment with fully depleted batteries will require more than
one cycle to fully charge.
When the cart's external control switch is set to external power, the cart provides power to the two external receptacles
located above the power cord.
Changing the fuse:
In some instances, the fuse will need to be replaced. Check with Customer Care if you believe that your fuse needs to be
replaced. Use an ABC15 (250V, 15A) fuse.
The fuse is located on the side of the timer, next to the power receptacle. Using a flat-head screwdriver, push the fuse in and
turn counter-clockwise until it stops. The fuse will release and pop up in the housing. Remove the fuse and discard. Insert
the new fuse. Use the screwdriver to push the fuse into the housing, and turn clockwise until it stops. The front of the fuse
should be flush with the housing.

Adjusting The Timer:
Use a flat head screwdriver no wider than 1/8” to make this adjustment.
The 25 minute cycle should be optimum for most applications and we don’t recommend adjustment. If adjustment is re-
quired, it can be done by a qualified maintenance person following these provided instructions. The timer range is from 15
to 120 minutes.
• Using a flat head screwdriver, gently turn the timer dial
counterclockwise until it stops at position 0.
• Adjust the dial clockwise to the desired setting.
Position 1 provides approximately 25-35 minute cycles.
• The timer key to the left of the dial indicates the cycle
length for each setting.
