Cart Assembly Instructions
- Engage the brake lock on each caster (T20) if it is not locked already. Using the supplied wrench (J10), secure 2 casters (T20) to each side panel (L12), (M13) of the cart using 1 flat washer (F6), 1 spring washer (E5), and 1 nut cap (D4) on each caster.
- To install the power cable wrap bracket, locate the 2 PEM studs on the back of the top back panel piece (P16) and remove the nut caps from the studs using the socket wrench (K11). Position the bracket (R18) onto the studs and then tighten the 2 nut caps back onto the studs to secure the bracket in place.
- Using the T30 Torx key (I9), install the back panel of the top shelf (P16) using 2 security screws (B2) and 2 washers (A1) on each side. Install the back panel to the bottom shelf (Q17) using 2 security screws (B2) and 2 washers (A1) on each side. Do not fully tighten the screws until after step 4.
- Using the T25 Torx key (H8), install the two shelves in the top and bottom positions of the side panels with 2 security screws (C3) on each side. Install the USB-C hub below the top shelf using 2 security screws (C3) on each side. Tighten all screws installed in steps 3 and 4. MC-4032-AIR ONLY: Install the second USB-C hub below the first hub OR below the bottom shelf using an additional 2 security screws (C3) on each side. Installing the hub below the top shelf provides top-down cables. Installing the hub below the bottom shelf provides extra space for larger devices. Tighten all screws installed in steps 3 and 4.
- Insert the bay dividers (S19) into the top shelf. See page 4 for bay configuration options. MC-4032-AIR ONLY: 6: Connect external power cable to the back of the hub.
- Connect external power cable to the back of the hub. MC-4032-AIR ONLY: Connect the short power cable from the top hub to the bottom hub.
Quick Start
- Connect cart to power source
- Plug in powered down devices ·
- Connected devices will automatically charge as efficiently as possible ·
- Connect/disconnect devices any time
Normal Operation
Plug the power cable into a standard 15A outlet. 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.
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. (Not Included, contact JAR Systems for more info)
Trouble-Shooting
Always start troubleshooting with a simple reboot
Unplug and relog 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 USB-C 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.
MC-4032-AIR ONLY: Ensure that the power cable connecting the top hub to the
bottom hub is plugged in correctly.
When the cart is powered back on, the LED lights will begin to illuminate.
Remove/Replace USB-C Cables
Each cable lock may be secured with up to three screws. Remove all screws with
the supplied T10 Torx key (G7). Remove the cable lock. 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.
