Charging the Hoist
The Hoist will indicate when charging is required. The light will turn ORANGE on the hoist control panel and a slow beeping
audible alarm will sound if the batteries are low and require charging. The display screen will also indicate low battery (Figure
26). Complete the transfer that is in progress and then move Hoist to the end of the track where the charger is located.
If the Hoist is not charged, following the ORANGE indicator, the light will turn RED on the hoist control panel and a fast beeping
audible alarm will sound. These indicate the batteries are discharged and require charging. The display screen will also indicate
“Up: Inhibit!” which will disable the UP function. The DOWN and EMERGENCY DOWN function will continue to operate for one
cycle – enabling the person to be safely lowered and for the Hoist to be returned to the charge point.
At the end of each use of the Hoist, it is recommended that it be returned to the charging dock for placement and charging. This
will ensure that the batteries are charged on a regular basis for peak performance and maximum life expectancy. The Hoist may
remain connected to the charger indefinitely because the Hoist has a built-in regulator, removing the danger of overcharging.
The Transactive Xtra Hoist is designed for in track charging. This is charged by the charging dock installed in the track. A charging
dock should have been fitted during the installation of the Hoist. (Figure 24)
To Traverse the Transactive Xtra, simply manually traverse the Hoist along the track to the charging dock at the far end of the
track. Once the Hoist has made contact, it should begin charging immediately (Figure 25). The LED will begin to flash orange
when charging, (see LCD Display status indications further in the user manual)
Do not traverse the Hoist with excess speed or force into the dock as this could damage the Hoist and the Dock.
Use only the charger that was supplied with the hoist or provided as a replacement. Use of any other charger will
void all warranties and may cause damage to the hoist.
