The enclosure contains control electronics to properly and safely charge
the batteries. Never remove the batteries from the enclosure and attempt
to charge externally.
Always use the charger supplied (PSC-2U)
.
7.1 Low Battery Indication
When the batteries are charged, there will be no battery indication.
When the batteries are low, the Low Battery icon will blink in the
display. The strobe may still be used for a short time.
Low Battery Icon = Outline blinking (very little time left)
The strobe has a protection feature that prevents the strobe from
operating if the battery voltage is too low. This condition is indicated
by no flash and the display shows
LO BAT
. At this time, the batteries
must be recharged. Remember to release the trigger switch.
7.2 Charging the Batteries
The unit may be recharged at any time. You do not need to wait until
the low battery condition is indicated.
To charge the battery-powered strobe with the recharger:
1. Release the trigger so the strobe is off.
2. Plug the recharger cable into the recharger socket (located below
the display panel behind the handle).
3. Plug the recharger into an AC mains wall outlet (115/230 V ac).
CAUTION
Use of rechargers other than the one supplied (PSC-2U) will
damage the stroboscope and void the warranty.
When the recharger plug is inserted into the recharger jack, the strobe
will go into the Charging Mode. Make sure the trigger switch is not
depressed. The strobe will not do anything else when charging (e.g. it
will not flash and the buttons have no function).
