Link Dual Charger
The Link Dual Charger is a two-slot desktop charger designed to
charge the model PTS360 Battery Packs. The handset is placed
in the front compartment and a single spare Battery Pack may be
placed in the rear slot. Either slot can be chosen to take priority
(the first Battery Pack placed into either slot is charged first) so
that the handset is always ready for use. Full charging is accom-
plished in approximately two hours for each Battery Pack. The
Link Dual Charger will only charge Nickel Metal Hydride (NiMH)
Battery Packs; this charger will not charge Nickel-Cadmium (NiCd)
Battery Packs.
Power Supply
Four different models of the power supply for the Link Dual
Charger are available for regional power requirements. The cor-
rect power supply must be ordered separately when the charger
is ordered. If any questions arise, please contact your service
representative.
Set up the Link Dual Charger by placing it on a flat, horizontal
surface in order to ensure proper contact with the Battery Pack
contacts. Connect the power supply to the charger and plug the
power supply into an appropriate wall outlet. The LEDs will light
only when a handset or Battery Pack is inserted into the slots.
Using the Link Dual Charger
The user must end any call in progress by pressing the END key
on the handset before placing the handset into the charger. The
call will not automatically terminate when the handset is placed
in the charger. The Battery Pack and handset will only fit into the
charger compartments one way. The handset should be inserted
into the front slot, facing forward. The Battery Pack alone should
be inserted into the rear slot with the side that attaches to the hand-
set facing to the rear. See the cover photo for the correct orientation.
Correct placement has been achieved when the charging light is acti-
vated. Incorrect placement will not activate the charging light.
Operation
The Link Dual Charger is designed to charge one Battery Pack at a time.
Each charging slot has a red light that indicates its current mode. The
charging lights have the following characteristics: When both a Battery
Pack and a handset are present at the same time, the first one placed
into the charger will begin charging. When it is fully charged, the second
Battery Pack will charge. When the LED indicator light turns off, the
charger is finished charging the Battery Pack in its slot, indicating that
the Battery Pack is ready for use. The Link Dual Charger will recharge a
single NiMH Battery Pack or a single handset in two hours.
Removal and Replacement
To remove the Battery Pack from the handset, slide the Battery Pack
down and off while pressing the Battery Pack release button on the back
of the handset. To replace the Battery Pack, align the top of the Battery
Pack with the arrows on the label on the back of the handset. Gently
press and slide the pack toward the top of the handset until it snaps in
place. You should not have to force it against the handset.
Cleaning the Link Dual Charger
The Link Dual Charger may occasionally need to be cleaned to maintain
appearance and ensure battery contact. Wipe the surface with a clean,
water-dampened cloth or paper towel to remove most films or residues.
If the soiling is too stubborn for plain water, a mild detergent solu-
tion may be used. Be sure to wipe away any detergent residue with a
plain water dampened cloth. DO NOT IMMERSE THE LINK DUAL
CHARGER IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID. The battery contacts
may be cleaned with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol applied with a cotton
swab, cloth or paper towel. Do not push or pull the exposed battery
contacts. DO NOT POUR LIQUIDS INTO THE SLOTS.
