Modero VG Series Touch Panels - Instruction Manual
NOTE: It is recommended to fully charge the batteries before their initial use.
Checking the NXT-BP Battery Charge
1. Press the Battery Life Indicator button (FIG. 27) once to illuminate the Battery Life LEDs and display the percent charge
remaining on the battery (this indication lasts a few seconds).
2. Repeat the above step for each NXT-BP battery.
3. Charge the NXT-BP battery by either inserting it into the battery base or from within the optional NXT-CHG charger (which can
sequentially charge up to two batteries).
NOTE: If the 25% LED is blinking, this indicates there is less than 5% of a charge remaining on the battery.
Installing the NXA-BASE/B to an NXT Modero Panel
The battery base must be installed onto the NXT panel without any NXT-BP batteries.
1. Power Off the panel before attempting to use the NXA-BASE/B.
2. Place the empty battery base onto a flat/level surface.
3. Verify the alignment of the Panel Interface connectors between the panel (male connector) and base (female connector)
(FIG. 28).
4. Carefully place the Modero panel over the base alignment pegs (FIG. 28 and FIG. 29).
NOTE: The battery base cannot be "hot-swapped". A panel receiving power through a connected 12 VDC-compliant power
supply cannot have a battery base installed onto the bottom of the panel while powered. POWER OFF the panel before installing
the NXA-BASE/B. "Hot swapping" could damage the base and cause it not to be recognized by the panel.
5. Gently apply downward pressure until the panel is securely mounted to the battery base (FIG. 29).
