8.2 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 Phaser-Strobe pbx with the power supply/charger:
1.
Release the trigger so the strobe is off.
2. Plu
g the charger cable into the charger socket (located below the
display panel behind the handle).
3. Plug the charger into an AC mains wall outlet (115/230 Vac).
CAUTION
Use of rechargers other than the one supplied (PSC-pbxU) will
damage the stroboscope and void the warranty.
When charging, the strobe will indicate
CHRGE
in the bottom right of the
display. The charger will fast charge the batteries for about 4-5 hours
and then trickle charge the batteries.
Allow the charger to charge the batteries until the display shows
DONE
for peak battery life performance. If the batteries are not charged to
100% regularly, the batteries will lose capacity.
8.3 External Power Supply/Charger
The external power supply/charger (PSC-pbxU) can also be used to run
the stroboscope continuously from the AC mains (115/230 Vac).
To power the strobe with the external power supply/charger (PSC-
pbxU):
1.
Plug the power supply/charger cable into the charger socket (located
below the display panel behind the handle).
2. Plug the power supply/charger into an AC main wall outlet.
3. Press (and lock) the trigger switch to operate. If the trigger switch is
