"ChargerConnect". 

 

The charger communication electronics are DC powered, so the charger must be connected to a valid 
battery pack in  order to communicate with it  via Bluetooth.

   If the charger is connected to  a  valid battery 

pack,  open  the  ChargerConnect  app  and  select  the  charger  from  the  list  of  available  units  the  app  is  able  to 
communicate  with.    The  charger  serial  number  is  the  identifier  of  the  unit,  unless  the 

“Charger  ID” has been 

previously  changed  via  the  app.    While  connected,  the  Red,  Yellow,  and  Green  LEDs  on  the  charger  will 
slowly blink at the same time until the Bluetooth communication is disconnected  from the charger.
