INSTALLATION
INSTALLING THE MULTI-UNIT CHARGER ON A HORIZONTAL SURFACE
Prior to installing the multi-unit charger, assess the intended installation area to make sure it meets the following criteria:
- G6 must be charged in a clean, gas-free environment between 0°C (32°F) and 45°C (113°F).
- The multi-unit charger must be installed on a horizontal flat, stable surface such as a table, work bench, or desk.
CAUTION: The multi-unit charger should not be installed on vertical surfaces such as a wall without the optional wall bracket (ACC-G6-CHG-05-KIT- XX or ACC-G6-CHG-25-KIT-XX). If you are mounting the multi-unit charger on a wall, refer to Installing the Multi-unit Charger on a Vertical Surface.
Optionally, you can anchor the multi-unit charger to the horizontal installation surface using the screw and keyholes in the base. There are two tabs at the back of the charger, and two or four keyholes (depending on the size of your charger) under the charger for screws.
To install the multi-unit charger:
- Place the base of the multi-unit charger on a clean, flat, stable surface.
- Plug the 24V AC/DC adaptor into the 24V DC input port on the back of the multi-unit charger, then attached the supplied AC power cord to the 24V AC/DC adaptor.
- Plug the AC power cord in to an AC outlet with a voltage within the AC input range of the adaptor.
To install and anchor the charger on a horizontal surface:
Required Tools
- Screws suitable for your mounting surface (not provided)
- Drill with appropriately sized drill bit
- Screwdriver
- Pencil to mark holes
-
Using the measurements provided, mark the areas where the screws will go.
-
Using a drill bit and screws appropriate for the surface you are drilling into, drill into the surface, using your marks as guides. Ensure the hole is shallower than your screw length.
-
Use a screwdriver to fit the screws that go underneath the charger into the holes you drilled.
CAUTION: Do not insert the screws that go through the tabs at the back of the panel yet. -
When all screws for the keyholes on the bottom of the charger are installed, lift the multiunit charger, and lower it down onto the screws. Slide the charger forward to lock the charger in place.
-
Use a screwdriver to fit the screws that go through the tabs on the back of the charger in place.
-
Plug the 24V AC/DC adaptor into the 24V DC input port on the back of the multi-unit charger, then attached the supplied AC power cord to the 24V AC/DC adaptor.
-
Plug the AC power cord in to an AC outlet with a voltage within the AC input range of the adaptor.
If the panel needs to be removed, simply remove the screws from the back tabs, then slide the panel back and lift it up to unhook it from the screws.
INSTALLING THE MULTI-UNIT CHARGER ON A VERTICAL SURFACE
To install the charger on a vertical surface:
IMPORTANT: You will need two people to complete the installation. Where possible, ensure the mounting unit is aligned with the wall studs.
Required Tools
- Wall mounting bracket kit (3 parts: 2 mounting brackets, one central bar and 2-M4 screws) (ACC-G6-CHG-05-KIT-XX or ACC-G6-CHG-25-KIT-XX)
- Screws and anchors suitable for your mounting surface (not provided - M6 screws at an appropriate length for your mounting surface are recommended)
- Drill with appropriately sized drill bit
- Pencil or chalk to mark holes
- Measuring tape
- Level
- Screwdriver
1. Slide the two mounting brackets onto the central bar. Ensure the brackets fit snugly into the grooves on the outside of the central bar.
- Brackets
- Central bar
2. Using the measurements provided, mark the areas where the screws will go.
3. Using a drill bit appropriate for the surface you are drilling into, drill
into the surface, using your marks as guides. Ensure the holes are the
appropriate length for your anchors (not provided).
4. Insert anchors that are appropriate for your mounting surface. For
example, if you are mounting on a wall, use drywall anchors.
5. Have one person hold the assembled mounting unit on the wall, lining up
the screw holes with the holes you drilled.
6. Place a level along the central bar to ensure the mounting unit is even.
7. Use a screwdriver to insert the provided screws through the mounting unit
into the wall, as shown in step 1. 8. Line up the multi-unit charger’s bottom
keyholes with the hooks on the mounting unit.
9. Slide the charger toward you to lock it in place.
10. Use a screwdriver to insert the provided screws through the tabs on the
back of the charger into the bracket.
- M4 screws
11. Plug the 24V AC/DC adaptor into the 24V DC input port on the back of the multi-unit charger, then attached the supplied AC power cord to the 24V AC/DC adaptor.
- 24 VDC input port
12. Plug the AC power cord in to an AC outlet with a voltage within the AC
input range of the adaptor.
13. If your setup allows, place the charging block on the shelf at the back
of the mounting unit (behind the multi-unit charger) to prevent tension on the
charging cables.
If the panel needs to be removed, simply remove the screws from the back tabs, then slide the panel back and lift it up to unhook it from the screws.
CHARGING G6 IN A MULTI-UNIT CHARGER
G6 multi-unit chargers should only be operated and stored within the following environmental parameters:
- Operating temperature: 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F)
- Humidity: non-condensing, up to 95%
- Storage temperature: -20°C to 60°C (-4°F to 140°F)
To charge G6 devices in the multi-unit charger:
1. Place G6 devices into the charging slot. One of the following screens will
display, indicating your device is charging. If the battery icon in the banner
does not change to the charging icon, remove G6 and try inserting it again.
NOTE: Each slot has a magnetic connector that secures G6 in place.
If G6 is powered on during charging, the Home screen reflects the device’s charging status.
If G6 is powered off during charging, the Battery Charging screen opens, reflecting the device’s battery status.
Once G6 is charged and removed from the multi-unit charger, the Home screen reflects the current device (event) status.
