8 XP6102 - Introduction CHAPTER 4: BATTERY CHARGING

TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER 4A Note: It is imperative that you fully charge both the transmitter and the RIGHT SIDE OF TRANSMITTER receiver battery packs prior to each trip to the field. To do so, leave the charger and batteries hooked up overnight (16 hours). The first charge should be approximately 20Ð24 hours in order to fully charge both battery packs to peak capacity. CENTER The charger supplied with this system is PIN IS designed to recharge your batteries at a NEGATIVE rate of 50mAh for the transmitter and 120mAh for the receiver battery pack.

Transmitter Only OUTSIDE IS POSITIVE The center pin on all JR¨ Remote Control Systems is negative. Therefore, the CHARGER PIGTAIL FOR TRANSMITTER center pin on all JR chargers is negative, BLACK TO POSITIVE not positive. This is different from many other manufacturers' chargers and radio systems. Beware of improper connections based on "color-coded" wire RED TO NEGATIVE leads, as they do not apply in this instance. You CHARGER PIGTAIL FOR RECEIVER must make sure that the center pin of your JR transmitter is always connected to the negative voltage for correct polarity hookup. RED=POSITIVE / BROWN=NEGATIVE / ORANGE=SIGNAL Important: Please note that the charging polarity of the transmitter and receiver are different.

CHARGER 4B The pilot lamps should always be on Do not use other manufacturers' after- during the charging operation. If not, market accessories that plug into the check to make sure that both the transmitter's charging jack if you are transmitter and receiver are switched off. unsure of compatibility issues with your radio. Seek expert advice to avoid Do not use the charger for equipment possible damage. other than JR. The charging plug polarity may not be the same. Equipment During the charging operation, the damage can result. charger's temperature is slightly elevated. This is normal.
