The LifeChoice POC can be powered in four different ways – the internal battery, an AC power supply,
DC power supply or the external battery. The rechargeable batteries are maintenance-free and can
only be exchanged at the factory.
1.
Internal Battery:
A rechargeable internal
battery is located within each LifeChoice
POC unit. When it is fully charged, it supplies
power to the Life Choice POC for up to 2
hours. When using internal battery power,
the green LED light above the
Battery Check
will illuminate and flash slowly.
When the AC, DC or external battery is plugged into the LifeChoice POC, whether powered
on or off, the green LED light above the
Battery Check
will illuminate solid green. This is
verification that the external source has been recognized. When using an external source to
power the LifeChoice POC, verify that the green LED light above the
Battery Check
is solid
green indicating the system is being powered by the external source. If not connected to an
AC or DC adapter, the internal battery will slowly discharge over time even when not in use.
Always check the battery level prior to use to ensure adequate charge level.
2.
AC Power Supply:
An AC power supply
allows the LifeChoice POC to be connected
to a 100-240 volt, 50/60 Hz outlet. The
power supply converts 100-240 volt AC to a
DC voltage for the LifeChoice POC unit.
When the unit is operated with the AC power
supply, power from the AC outlet powers the
unit and recharges the internal and/or the
external battery simultaneously.
When using an external source to power
the LifeChoice POC, verify that the green LED light above the
Battery Check
is solid green
indicating the system is being powered by the external source.
3.
DC Power Supply:
A DC power supply can
be connected from the LifeChoice POC unit
to an automobile’s
(boat, motor home, etc.)
12-volt
DC outlet. When the system is connected
to the automobile’s/vehicle’s DC outlet,
power from the automobile/vehicle
battery powers the LifeChoice POC unit
and recharges the internal and/or external
battery simultaneously.
When using an external source to power the
LifeChoice POC, verify that the green LED
light above the
Battery Check
is solid
