9.4 Charging GO
1. Connect the plug pack and supplied cable to the charging base, plug into power and turn the
power on.
2. Place GO on the wireless charger. Be sure to check that the ‘walking person’ symbol faces
upwards. The charger and GO will illuminate blue to indicate that charging has started.
3. Charging duration is approximately three to five (3 – 5) hours from low battery.
4. When GO is charged its light ring will illuminate green.
• If GO has automatically updated while charging, when removed from
the charger, it will announce: “Update completed” and flash white for
ten seconds (If configured to do so).
5. To use GO at any time simply remove it from the wireless charger.
Please Note:
It is important to perform a System Check at the location where the charger is installed to ensure
Chiptech GO has good to excellent cellular coverage for any automatic updates or log downloads.
If GO is charged in a location where there is no coverage, the device will not be able to send a
‘Battery OK/Charging’ report which can cause monitoring to unnecessarily make contact with the
end user. If there is no coverage at the charger location, then GO will not be able to send the
‘Flight Mode Restore’ report when placed on the charger to disable Flight Mode.
GO will need a charge approximately every one to two (1 – 2) months with regular use. When the
battery is low, or critically low, GO will inform the user when it needs to be placed on the charger.
GO will also need to be charged if an alert for help has been recently sent, as this event uses more
battery power.
• Testing has shown the lithium-ion battery will run for approximately one to two (1 – 2) months
with standard use before requiring recharging. Standard use is: 7 hourly RF test transmissions,
test signals every second day, and two System Checks per week being performed. It is
recommended that GO is charged after an alert.
Please Note:
When GO has sent a low battery report and is placed on the charger it will send a ‘battery
charging’ report to monitoring. It will only send this report if GO has been on the charger for at
least 30 minutes, has cellular coverage, and the battery voltage is equal to or above 3.7 volts.
