Setting Up FR210CS

IMPORTANT
Setting up

  1. Plug the AC cord into the power supply.
  2. Plug the AC plug into an outlet.
  3. Plug the power out lead from the power supply into the DC jack on at the back of FR2CS. Power indicator will illuminate green.

Using FR210CS
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 5 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.

5 Units 3 Units 1 Units
9-10 hours 6-7 hours 2-3 hours

CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 6A white LED will flash to indicate the power bank is recharging. As the unit charges the additional LED(s) will remain on until all four LEDs are on constantly.
Setting Up FR210DS
IMPORTANT
Setting up

  1. CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 7 Position and screw the Docking Station (FR210DS) into place on the underside of the workstatior using 4qty 4G screw. There are 4 screw fixing locations on the underside of the Docking Station.
    CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 8

  2. Connect compatible CMS products to the output ports on the rear of the unit. Note: if you are using DC OUT 2 make sure the correct voltage is selected before plugging in compatible devices.

Using FR210DS
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 9 Slide the Power Bank (FR210PB) into the Docking Station (FR210DS) as shown. You will hear an audible clicking sound when locked in. The power button on the docking station may need to be pressed to power on the unit. All 4 LED’s will illuminate when on to display charge level of docked power banks.
Multiple Power Banks can be stacked to increase runtime as shown below.
To disengage Power Bank(s) either press the push button release at the front of the unit you wish to disengage or use the key and turn in a clockwise direction. When released the Powe’ Bank will spring out/forward slightly. Note some force may be required when pressing push release button in.

IMPORTANT- Maximum Outputs
The maximum available output of FR210DS with 1 Power Bank (FR210PB) docked is 150W between all output ports. Maximum output is increased to 300W with 2 or more Power Banks (FR210PB) docked. (350W for 1-2 minutes continues to operate sit to stand desk)
As FR210DS operates each LED will go out systematically until the docked power bank(s) are depleted.
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 12The docking station (FR210DS) is capable of recharging the docked power bank(s)
(FR210PB) via the 20V/7.5A DC IN JACK. The Recharge times will be slower compared to using the charging station (FR210CS). Note that when recharging all output ports will be disabled.
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 13Refer to the below table for recharging times in relation to the number of docked power banks.

1 Unit Docked 2 Units Docked 3 Units Docked
3-4 hours 6-7 hours 8-9 hours

Using FR210PB
IMPORTANT- Unboxing
FR210PB will first need to be charged via
FR210DS or FR210CS when first urpackaged.
Refer ‘Using FR210CS’
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 14The 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 FR210 Power Bank - overview 15CMS
Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 16The total capacity of FR210PB can be increased to drastically increase runtimes. This is useful for high powered laptops. Simply slide the second unit into place. You will hear an audible click sound when the units are securely connected.
CMS Electracom FR210 Power Bank - overview 17The power bank connected to the devise(s) will become the main unit and will display charge level via 4 LED’s. The second unit will become the slave and LED’s will remain off.
IMPORTANT— Slave Unit
If the slave unit power button is pressed in this setup the charge level displayed via 4 LED’s may not be correct.
