Charging the Battery
The battery charger provides rapid recharging of the lithium-ion battery pack provided
with the Pathmaker radio. The charger may be placed on any flat surface, such as a
desktop, or it may be bulkhead mounted using the [provided?] mounting hardware. The
battery may be inserted into the charger alone or while mounted to the radio. When
charge is complete, the charger automatically switches to standby mode.
Two chargers are available, a single-unit charger as shown below, and a six-unit
charger. The operation for each is the same.
The normal time to charge a fully discharged battery is 120 minutes.
To operate the charger:
1. Plug the AC power cord of the charger into an AC supply between 100 to 240
VAC. The LED should not illuminate. If it does illuminate, check the AC supply or
replace the charger.
2. Switch the radio off.
3. Insert the battery into the charger, either with or without the radio attached. The
LED will illuminate RED indicating the battery is charging.
4. When the LED illuminates GREEN, charge is complete. The radio may be
removed or may remain in place on the charger.
