Connect a battery of your choice to the battery input, taking care to maintain
correct polarity. This can be a 2S (7.4 V) LiPo/LiIon, a 5S NiCd / NiMH battery, or
a 2S (6.6 V) LiFePo pack.
By default the voltage monitor is set up to work with a LiPo/LiIon battery.
We recommend that you use the LiPo/LiIon or LiFePo battery packs which we
manufacture. All PowerBox batteries are equipped with appropriate electronic
monitor and security circuits, balancer and integral charger. All our batteries are
supplied complete with a practical mounting frame of the correct size.
Caution: connecting the battery with reversed polarity will instantly ruin the
integral linear regulator!
3. SWITCHING ON AND OFF
Switching the unit on and off is very simple, and the process effectively prevents
accidentally changing the PowerBox’s status. This is the procedure:
Locate the SET button on the PowerBox Sensor and hold it pressed in until the
central LED glows red. Now press buttons I and II in turn; the backer is now swit-
ched on.
Repeat the procedure to switch off: hold the SET button pressed in, wait until the
central LED glows red, then confirm by pressing buttons I and II in turn.
Once switched on, the PowerBox can only be turned off again using the switches.
Intermittent contacts or interruptions in the power supply cannot cause the Power-
Box to be switched off permanently.
