Basic Operation 

 

5.1

 

Charging the VoltTab 

Included with the 

VoltTab

 are two (2) chargers and two (2) charger cables.  One is marked 

“VoltTab” and the other marked “Tablet”.  Neither of the chargers or cables should ever 

be interchanged due to their charger capacities and cable connections being different. 
To charge the tablet, insert the “Tablet” cable into the USB-C port at the bottom of the 

tablet (Referencing #8 on Page 5).   An LED will illuminate at the top of the tablet, 

indicating charge status.  RED indicates charge in progress and BLUE indicates charging is 

complete.  Note that if the tablet battery is fully discharged, it may take several minutes 

for the RED charger indicator to appear. 
Plug the “VoltTab” charge cable into the 

VoltTab 

USB port (Referencing #4 on Page 5).  

The RED charge indicator (Referencing #5 on Page 5) should illuminate and will turn off 

when charging is complete.   

 

5.2

 

Turning on the VoltTab 

Press and hold the power button at the bottom right corner of the tablet until the tablet 

turns on (Referencing #7 on Page 4).  At this point, the 

VoltTab

 is still powered off and 

will be turned on when a 

VoltTab

 application is started. 

 

5.3

 

Sleep Mode 

To extend battery life, press the tablet power button once to turn the screen off and put 

it in sleep mode.  This is done when the 

VoltTab

 is 

temporarily

 not being used (traveling 

between test sites, etc.). 

 

5.4

 

Powering Off 

To power the 

VoltTab

 off, press and hold the tablet power button until the power off 

screen appears and tap “Power Off” to confirm.  This should be done when the 

VoltTab

 

is not being used (overnight, etc.).  When the tablet powers down, the 

VoltTab

 will remain 

active for several minutes and then power off automatically.
