JAR SYSTEMS MC-6XXX Elevate USB-C Charging Cart

Quick Start

1. Connect cart to power source
2. Plug in powered down devices
3. Connected devices will automatically charge as efficiently as possible
4. Connect/disconnect devices any time

LED Charging Port Indicator Lights

Normal Operation

• Plug the power cable into a standard 15A outlet. Be sure that the power switch on the side of the cart is in the ON position. LEDs will illuminate white to indicate the cart is connected to a power source.

• Power off devices fully before connecting them to the cart for charging.

• Connect the devices to the USB-C charging cables.
  Ensure that devices are placed in the cart so that the charging ports are as close as possible to the USB-C charging port on the cart. Incorrectly connecting devices can strain the cable over long periods of time and lead to damage.

• You may hear a clicking sound, and the LED lights will change color according to the power draw of the attached devices.

• The system will automatically limit power consumption by turning some of the USB-C ports off temporarily. Refer to the device for the level of charge. Connected devices will charge as fast and evenly as possible, up to 65W, without drawing too much power.

• When devices are not connected, make sure the cables are inside of the lip on the front of the shelf to prevent them being caught in the door.

• To remove devices from the carts with the greatest level of charge first, disconnect devices with the green LEDs first before you disconnect devices with the blue LEDs.

• Devices that do not feature a USB-C charging port can be charged using USB-C emulator cables.

Trouble-Shooting

Always start troubleshooting with a simple reboot

Unplug and replug the power cord. When the cart is connected to power, the LEDs will change color based on the power draw of connected devices (see light indication).

Single Port or Device Issue

• Ensure that both of the cable ends plug into the cart and the device correctly.
• If there is still no charge, disconnect the device from that port (A) and plug into another port (B). If it is still not charging, it may be an issue with the device.
• If charging begins when using port (B), exchange the cable from port (B) to port (A). If it begins to charge, the cable (A) is defective and will need to be replaced.

Entire Charging Hub/Shelf Issue

• Check the back of the charging hub to see if the cart’s power cable is plugged in and connected correctly.
• The easiest way to access the AC power cable is to remove the (right) back panel of the cart.
• When the cart is powered back on, the LED lights will begin to illuminate.

Remove/Replace USB-C Cables

• Each shelf may be secured with up to three screws. Remove all screws with the supplied Torx key.
• Open the tray lid. Unplug the cables from the USB-C ports and route them through the cable track.
• Reverse the process to replace a cable.

Adjusting Device Bay Dividers

Elevate carts feature adjustable device bays with multiple configuration options. Use the guides below to determine which hole pattern to use.
To remove dividers, push in and upward on the front of the divider and guide it out of the slot in the tray. To install the dividers, simply place the tall side of the divider into the rear slot first, then push in and downward to get the other side into the front slot.

Installing Charging Cables and Adapters

(For Hybrid Carts Only)

1. Remove the security screw using the provided Torx key (F6) from the center of the shelf (A) and temporarily place it in the side of the cart (B) to hold the tray open during the wiring process.

2. Determine the length of cable that is needed to reach from inside the tray to the devices (C).

3. Determine the best method of arranging the cables that come with your device (figures D, E, F below). Use of cable clips (F6, G7) is optional for any configuration.

4. Arrange adapters in a decided configuration, leaving just enough cable length sticking out of the port to plug in the devices.
   TIPS:
   Adapters can often be installed as they come bundled in the box. For example, the adapter in figure (G) comes with the cable wrapped around the adapter and it works out nicely when installed in that condition. If the cables are not bundled at all, twist ties or Velcro ties may be helpful.
   If the devices have particularly large AC adapters (approximately 5” x 2” x 1.25”) the adapters will fit more snugly in the tray. In this case it may be best to arrange the majority of the adapters as far back in the tray as possible from left to right, flipping about half of them on their side. Please contact JAR Systems for additional assistance.

5. Plug the charger into the power strip. For best results, bundle any excess cable length if it is not already (H).

6. OPTIONAL – Replace the security screw in the center of the shelf to prevent adapters from being removed or tampered with (I).
