Using

CMS Electracom FR210PB Series Lithium Battery - using

To recharge the power bank (FR210PB), place it into the dedicated charging station (FR210CS). The power bank will be recharged via the 12pin connector the end of each unit. The Charging Station can hold and charge up to five power banks (FR210PB) simultaneously.
Refer to the below table for charging times in relation to number of units charging.

IMPORTANT
Setting upCMS Electracom FR210PB Series Lithium Battery - setting

The power bank (FR210PB) can recharge any USB C or USB A compatible device(s). Simply plug in the device and the power bank will auto detect that a device has been plugged in and power on. Four white LED’s will illuminate to indicate the power banks charge level.
The power button can also be pressed to turn on the power bank and display charge level. To turn off the power bank long press the power button for 10 seconds, the 4 LED’s will cycle through 3 times before turning off. As FR210PB charges your device each LED will go out systematically until the power bank is depleted. CMS Electracom FR210PB Series Lithium Battery - indicator

Issue Cause Solution

FR210PB
All four LED’s flashing
simultaneous| The over-current protection has activated during discharging.| Remove the over-loading device, the output  will recover by pressing the power button or recharging the unit via charging station (FR210CS)to rest.
The over-temperature protection is activated during charging.| The Unit stopped charging as the device  operating temperature has been exceeded.  The unit will resume function after returning  to operating temperature range.
The power bank cannot
be charged.| Check FR210CS is plugged in with power available.| Ensure FR210CS is plugged in with power  available LED illuminated.
12 pin connectors may not be making good contact.| Check that no debris is impeding recharging  via the 12- pin connector. Remove and readd  the power bank.
Your plugged-in
device(s) are not
charging.| There is no capacity left.| Re-charge the power bank.
The firmware is in protection mode.| Recharge via FR210CS to reset.
Trying to recharge immediately after rapid discharge.| The temperature of the cells may be too high, battery protection will not allow the unit
to charge until cells are at a safe operating  temperature.
Allow some time for the unit to cool down  before attempting to recharge.
Unit run time is low| The capacity left is low| Re-charge the power bank.
The working current of devices is larger.| Battery degradation over time/usage
Battery is close to end of life| Battery degradation over time/usage
Unit is Unresponsive| The Unit software is frozen/unresponsive| Press and hold RESET button for 10  seconds (Rest Button located on the  underside of the unit).
FR210CS

Power Available LED not on| The unit may not be plugged in correctly| Check that the unit is plugged in correctly and  power point is active
FR210DS
4 LED’s Fast Flashing| The Over-current protection is
activated, for USB A or USB C port is
overloaded| Remove the overloading device, the USB port(s) will recover by pressing power button or recharging to rest.
1 Red LED on| The over-current protection is activated, DC OUT 1 or DC  OUT 2 is overloaded| Remove the overloading device(s), Press Power  Button to recover. Auto recover will occur after 30 minutes
Unable to output or turn
on| Perhaps the 12-pin connector isn’t making good contact| Remove and readd FR210PB
12 pin connector made incorrect contact, activated protection.| Recharge to recover (DC IN at rear)
USB C port and DC OUT
ports won’t provide
output simultaneously| 2nd Power Bank (FR210PB) required| Install second Power Bank (FR210PB). If already  installed, try removing and readding.
Unable to discharge or recharge| A High rate of discharge has just been applied increasing the
temperature of the cells. Over temperature protection  activated to protect the cells| Wait for the cells to cool down before attempting to recharge or discharge
4 LED’s immediately start to cycle  through 3 times before unit turns off after docking FR210PB| Residual charge left in capacitors or FR210DS trigger low  power mode and the unit turns off.| Rest by recharging via 20V, 7.5A DC IN
