Magnetic Adapter
Charging Cable
For optimum charging results, the built-in charger requires a
USB power supply capable of at least 2-3A output. Using a
power supply with a lower output will result in very long charge
times or the transmitter not charging if it is powered on while
attempting to charge.
The first time the transmitter is charged, the charge time
may be 6-7 hours. Always charge the transmitter on a heat-
resistant surface.
Charging:
1. Connect a 2-3A USB power supply (not included) to an
AC outlet.
2. Connect the included magnetic USB charging cable to the
power supply.
3. Insert the included magnetic micro USB adapter in the USB
port on the back of the transmitter.
4. Connect the USB charging cable to the magnetic adapter.
5. The LED will flash blue while charging. A fast press of the
power switch will bring the Charge Battery icon to the color
touch screen display.
6. Charging is complete when the button is pressed and the
battery capacity icon on the screen shows full.
Disconnect the USB cable once charging is complete.
Disconnect the power supply from the power outlet. The
magnetic micro USB adapter can be left in the transmitter
USB port.
CAUTION:
Never leave a charging battery unattended.
CAUTION:
Never change the low voltage limit for Li-Ion
batteries below 3.3V. Doing so could over-discharge the
battery and damage both battery and transmitter.
CAUTION:
Never charge the battery outside of the
transmitter. Charging the battery outside of the
transmitter may interfere with the battery monitoring
system, which can give false low battery warnings.
