Preparing the 2110 SSB Transceiver for use
2110 SSB Transceiver Getting Started Guide 17
To charge a battery:
1 Do one of the following:
• If the battery is attached to the transceiver, use cable
08-06215-001 to connect the output of the charger to
the 19-way connector on the front panel of the
transceiver.
• If the battery is detached from the transceiver, use cable
08-06214-001 to connect the output of the charger to
the 6-way connector on the top of the battery pack.
1 Connect the charger to an appropriate power source.
If the transceiver is operational during charging, the
battery status indicator on the screen will show that the
battery is charging. When charging is complete, the
battery status indicator will be full.
Requirements for alternative chargers
The Codan battery packs may be charged using alternative
supplies, for example, solar panels or hand-crank generators.
In this situation, the voltage level must not exceed 15.5 V and
the current must be within 1–3 A. These chargers must be
connected between pin B (charge in) and pin A (ground) on
the connector on the battery pack.
CAUTION
Provide clear notification that charging is
underway. Ensure there is adequate ventilation
around the battery during charging.
NOTE
It will take approximately 16 seconds for
charging to start.
