External Power
The PJ2+ COM includes a wall adapter and USB-A to USB-C power cable.
The wall adapter can be used in 100-240 volt applications. The USB-A port
on the wall adapter provides the needed 2.4 amps to properly power the
PJ2+ COM. If less than 2.4 amps is provided, the PJ2+ COM will receive
transmissions, but it won’t have enough power to transmit. If attempting
to transmit on less than 2.4 amps, the PJ2+ COM screen will flash
intermittently and beep. To remedy this issue, change the power source to
provide the needed 2.4 amps, or use the alkaline battery pack.
The PJ2+ COM does not have power delivery capability. Power should
only be provided from a USB-A port.
Another option for external power is to use a backup tablet battery pack
(sold separately). Be sure to use a battery pack that provides at least
2.4 amps of power.
Note: When powering the PJ2+ COM through the Type-C power port on
the side of the radio, the radio will transmit at 5 Watts (PEP).
