Safety Information
DANGER: There are NO user serviceable parts inside the Battery Pack or the FutureCharge Battery Charger. DO NOT OPEN THE BATTERY PACK AND THE CHARGER AS LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT INSIDE! Only Motorola Solutions can service the Battery Pack and the charger. WARNING: To ensure that Radio Frequency (RF) energy exposure to bystanders external to a repeater or
mobile radio is lower than the recommended safety standards, transmit with any repeater or mobile radio only when bystanders are at least 2 meters away from a properly installed externally mounted antenna for radios with less than 50 Watts output power, or 3 meters away for radios with 50 Watts or greater power output. Refer to the RF Safety Booklets for exact distances. Never use the Battery Pack or attempt to charge the Battery Pack if it is damaged in any manner. If it is damaged, contact Motorola Solutions. Only use chargers provided for the Battery Pack. Use of any other charger could damage the
Battery Pack or result in fire, electric shock, or electrocution. DO NOT store or charge the Battery Packs in locations with a warm environment. Keep the Battery Pack dry. DO NOT incinerate the Battery Packs. DO NOT enclose the Battery Pack in an airtight casing or environment. During charging and discharging the Battery Packs must have ventilation. Airtight environment could cause an explosion. DO NOT operate the Battery Packs in explosive atmospheres, for example, in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, dust or in an area where the Battery Pack could be exposed to sparks or any burning material. Before disposing the Battery Pack, check with your State/Province Environmental Protection
Agency. If the Battery Pack should ever become warm when charging or if it should emit a pungent odor,
disconnect the charger from an AC outlet immediately and contact Motorola Solutions. Do not operate a charger with damaged AC power cords or DC output cords or accessories. Call
the manufacturer to have the charger replaced immediately. NEVER charge a frozen Battery Pack. Locate the charger as far away from the Battery Pack as is allowed by the length of the output
cable harness. NEVER set the charger on a surface constructed from combustible material. The charger body and power cord are waterproof. However, do not expose the AC and DC
electrical connections at the ends of the power cords to rain or snow. When handling electric power cords, always pull by the plug rather than by the cord. This will
reduce the risk of damage to both the plug and the cord, and it will minimize the likelihood of electric shock resulting from that damage. Make sure that all electric power cords are located so that they cannot be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected to damage or stress. When leaving a battery charger connected to the Battery Pack for extended periods of time (weeks, months, and so forth), periodically check the battery to see if it is unusually warm, if it is releasing an excessive amount of gas, or if it is emitting an unpleasant odor. If any of these things occur, disconnect the charger from the AC electrical outlet and contact the manufacturer immediately.
10

MN010354A01-AA About This Manual NEVER smoke or allow a source of electric spark or open flame in the vicinity of the battery or charger. IMPORTANT: Before each use and charging of the Battery Pack, check the ventilation holes provided on the Battery Pack to ensure that the holes have not been blocked or obstructed. Clean or clear any obstruction such as dirt that may obstruct ventilation.

Chapter 1
Battery Pack Overview
This section provides an overview and description of the Battery Pack and its components. 1.1
Principle of Operation
The Suitcase can contain either a DVRS, a PDR8000, or a Booster Pack. The Suitcase contains an internal 120 VAC or 220 VAC to 13.8 VDC power supply.
NOTE: DVRS comes from the factory with only one of 120 V or 220 V while the PDR8000 and the Booster Pack are compatible with both. The Battery Pack is used to supply nominal 13.8 VDC power to the Suitcase where AC supply is not available. 1.2
TRS and Battery Pack Block Diagram
The Battery Pack consists of three components; the main Battery Pack enclosure, a DC output cable (kit number: 7W077X11-01, 7W077X12-01, or 7W088X11-01) and the FutureCharge Battery Charger (kit number: 3P077B01-01). The following figure shows the Suitcase and Battery Pack block diagram. Figure 1: Suitcase and Battery Pack Block Diagram
NOTE: For the DVRS Suitcase: It is not recommended to connect the Battery Pack when the DVR-LX Suitcase is powered from AC. A discharged Battery Pack can be damaged. Connecting the Battery Pack and AC at the same time voids the Battery Pack warranty. This limitation does not apply to the PDR8000 and Booster Pack.
12

MN010354A01-AA Chapter 1: Battery Pack Overview
1.3
Battery Pack
The main Battery Pack enclosure contains batteries, a battery voltage indicator, and a DC input/output connector. The DC output connector is connected directly to the batteries without any internal fuses. The internal batteries are used to supply DC power to the Suitcase where AC supply is not available. The AC to DC battery charger is used to charge the internal batteries from a 120 VAC source.
NOTE: A step-down transformer and an AC plug adapter (if required) are supplied for countries with 220 VAC to 240 VAC mains. Figure 2: Battery Pack
1.4
DC Input/Output Connector
The battery charger connects to the MIL-C-5015 style 2-contact connector for charging. The MIL-C-5015 style 2-contact connector is located on the side of the Battery Pack. It supplies power to the Suitcase. The DC cable (kit number: 7W077X11-01 or 7W088X11-01) plugs into this connector. The other end of the DC cable plugs into the Suitcase DC input connector.
