The “LAVA Battery Information” application is an optional utility
used to verify the battery charge status.
Installation of this application is recommended for initial
verification of the STS-RBM. This application can be removed

LAVA Battery Information Manual.PDF
The manual for the LAVA Battery Information application.
The source code for the LSR.APK can be requested. This code was developed using Android Studio v1.1.0.
Due to the size of the archive file, it is not included in the standard software release for the STS-RBM.
The LAVA Tablet Manager (LTM) is only available as part of the release package. The LTM application is
not on GooglePlay due to the special installation steps required.
The LAVA Battery Information (LBI) application is available on Google Play, and as part of the release
package for installation convenience.
The STS-RBM applications are “sideloaded” onto the Tablet, rather than going through Google Play. To
"sideload" an application, copy the APK file to a Tablet folder such as the Download folder. Using the “My
Files”, locate and select the APK to begin the installation. You may have to permit installation from
“Unknown sources” depending on your specific Tablet settings.
An alternative to copying the APKs to a Tablet folder is to place the files on a memory stick and use an
OTG adapter such as the LAVA TL002 to make the files accessible by the Tablet.
