Battery charging
Note
The LiNX system does not need to be powered on when charging the battery. However, if it is not turned on,
the battery gauge will not display the state of charge
.
Note
These batteries are specially designed for the traction of electric chairs:
"Traction" means that they are able to restore the stored energy for a long time, unlike starter batteries that provide
a large amount of energy for only a few minutes.
"Waterproof" means clean, but also that no acid is likely to overflow during the load, nor to sink in case of overturning
or falling of the chair. No emanation will be caused during charging.
"Maintenance-free" means that there is no need to monitor the electrolyte level of the battery:
The only precaution to take is to ensure proper unloading and loading.
To recharge your wheelchair's battery, plug the appropriate
battery charger (Lithium or AGM) equipped with a 5-pin XLR
plug (see Figure 108) into the socket under the REM400
manipulator screen

The inhibition of the control module during charging is
indicated with three visual elements on the REM400 (see figure
109)

he lock symbol of the control module in the status bar
•
