BRC stand usage and battery charge
The BRC contains a powerful rechargable Lithium Ion battery, which allows many
hours of wireless operation for the WAP-8600 system, due to high battery capacity
and the integrated power saving management of the BRC.
Before first wireless BRC usage, the battery requires recharging.
Connect the BRC power supply to the backside connector of the stand.
The BRC can be operated while placed in the stand.
Note: Charging control even works when the BRC is switched to Standby!
The charging progress you can control by the flashing battery symbol in the display
headline: Red = battery low, Yellow = medium charge, Green = fully charged. When
the battery is fully charged, flashing of the battery symbol stops. In case of green
and not flashing battery symbol, charging procedure is switched off. If you keep the
BRC on the stand with power supply connected, even uninterrupted display and
SMR connection will not discharge the battery.
Note: If you aim for not using your WAP-8600 for longer time, disconnect the BRC
from charger and disconnect it from mains, to avoid unexpected discharge of the
battery. Also disconnect the power supply of the SMR.
Under normal usage conditions after full charge, the BRC might be operated for
several days before recharging will be required. In case of extensive usage (display
all time active) the BRC can be operated apprx. 8 hours. But uninterrupted usage is
not usual without power supply. If you aim for continous display and instand access
all time, you can connect the BRC to power supply (operate the BRC on the stand).
Li-Ion battery replacement:
● The Battery compartment is placed at the back of the BRC cabinet.
● The battery cover slider can be unlocked by slight pushing the cover at the
dotted area and shifting down for apprx. 5mm. After unlocking, the cover
can easily be removed.
● Please pull out the small battery connector carefully, replace the battery and
plug-in the small battery plug again.
● Then lay the battery cover back on the opening and let it slide-in until you
recognize it was locked again.
● The BRC now is ready to use.
