Overload Protection (30 Unit Model)
Charging 30 laptop computers at one time combined with the power demands of existing laptop battery
technology can overload a typical 15 amp circuit. Anthro’s 30 Unit Laptop Storage Cart is equipped with a
built-in timing device that automatically switches the AC power supply from one side of the Cart to the other.
How It Works:
When the Cart’s external control switch is set to internal power (to charge the laptops), the timer module will
provide power to the Primary Panel (the side of the cart with the power cord) for the amount of time indicated
on the Timer Adjustment (shown right). When that time expires, the cart will provide power to the Secondary
Panel (the other side of the cart) until the time expires. The cart will continue to alternate sides until the
external control switch is changed or the cart is unplugged. Every time power is turned off and then restored to
the cart, power goes to the Primary Panel fi rst.
The timer is factory-set on a 25-minute cycle. Laptops and equipment with fully depleted batteries will require
more than one cycle to fully charge.
When the cart's external control switch is set to external power, the cart provides power to the two external
receptacles located above the power cord.
Circuit Breaker:
There are two circuit breakers on the LTSC30. One is on the timer module and the other is on the power
inlet module located underneath the cart. If there is no power to internal and external outlets, check to see if
the circuit breaker on the power inlet module is tripped. If there is power to the external outlets but not to the
internal outlets, check to see if the circuit breaker located on the timer module is tripped.
Adjusting the Timer:
Use a fl at head screwdriver no wider than 1/8” to make this adjustment.
The 25 minute cycle should be optimum for most applications and we don’t recommend adjustment. If
adjustment is required, it can be done by a qualifi ed maintenance person following these provided instructions.
The timer range is from 15 to 120 minutes.
• Using
a
fl at head screwdriver, gently turn the timer dial
counterclockwise until it stops at position 0.
•
Adjust the dial clockwise to the desired setting.
Position 1 provides approximately 25-35 minute cycles.
•
The timer key to the left of the dial indicates the cycle
length for each setting.
