QSG-4 Setting the SM7004 Voltage
The SM7004 is the re-chargeable battery bank that provides DC power to the MS27101A. Set the SM7004
voltage to 12 VDC to operate the MS27101A.
To set to 12 VDC:
1. Press and hold the SM7004 power button for two seconds and release. Each of the four SM7004 voltage
indicator LEDs sequence through during the power on. If the four LEDs do not light, the battery is not
fully charged and will need to be charged before continuing.
2. Set the SM7004 to DC output mode by double-pressing the power button.
3. In DC output mode, set to 12 VDC by single-pressing the power button to sequence through each voltage
setting.
4. Set to the 12 VDC position as shown in Figure QSG-4. The voltage output is now set to 12 VDC.
Caution
Do not adjust the SM7004 to 12 VDC when the SM7005 cable is connected to the MS27101A.
Use the steps below to set the SM7004 to 12 VDC before making connection. Damage to the
MS27101A internal circuitry may result if incorrect DC power is applied.
