INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
CR3 CR5, and CR7 Charging Racks
1 Introduction
This document describes how to install, configure and operate the CR3, CR5, and CR7 Charging Racks. This
document is also intended to be used as a guide for maintenance and troubleshooting.
The CR3 Charging Rack is used for the Ascom DECT and VoWiFi handsets while CR5 and CR7 Charging
Racks are used to charge Ascom Myco handsets. The CR3 Charging Rack is available in two different
models, Advanced and Basic. The CR5 and CR7 Charging Racks are only available as a Basic model. The
Advanced Charging Rack can be used to program and charge handsets, while the Basic version can only
be used to charge handsets. SeeTable 1 Charging Rack Features, page 1 and Table 2 Variants of the
Charging Rack, page 1 to get more information on the Charging Rack model features.
The CR3 and CR5 Charging Racks can charge up to six handsets simultaneously, while CR7 Charging Rack
can charge up to five handsets at the same time.

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL
CR3 CR5, and CR7 Charging Racks Introduction
Figure 1. Charging Rack on the example of CR7- AAAA
Supply voltage: 100-240VAC/0.7A 50/60 Hz
Building fuse for fixed installation: 10 A max
The USB port on the Advanced Charging Rack is used to connect the Charging Rack to a Device Manager,
or to a PC running the Portable Device Manager (PDM). The Device Manager or PDM can be used to
configure or upgrade either the Charging Rack itself or any handsets placed in the Charging Rack.
The Ethernet ports can be used to connect up to four Advanced Charging Racks to a single LAN outlet .
The Advanced Charging Rack is designed to always be connected to an Ethernet based local area
network.
See 2.5 Communication Cable Connection, page 12 or more information on how to connect Charging Racks
using the Ethernet and USB ports.
Installation Alternatives
In the USA and Canada the Charging Rack can only be installed as a single unit, serial configura-
tion is not permitted.
• The Charging Rack can be installed as a single unit. When installed as a single unit, the power cord with
the C14 connector can be used together with a suitable extension cord, and can be plugged into a wall
outlet. Up to four Advanced Charging Rack single units can be connected to one LAN outlet.
• If more than one Charging Rack is used in a serial configuration a fixed installation must be made. For
safety reasons it is NOT allowed to supply more than one unit by the power cord with the C14 connector.
When units are supplied in series, the installation must be made by an authorized electrician and the C14
connectors must be removed. Maximum five units can be connected in serial power supply , but LAN
serial connection is limited to four units..
In Sweden, Norway and Finland a connection to protective earth (safety grounding) must be
provided.
1 1 Technical Solution

2 3 Wall Mounting
Charging Rack shall not be mounted higher than 2000 mm.
Follow these steps when mounting a Charging Rack to a wall:
1. First, make an outline of how the Charging Racks are to be placed.
If several Charging Racks (or Battery Pack Chargers) are to be mounted close to each other, mount
them so that there is enough space between them to be able to disconnect the handsets (vertical
distance) and to be able to open the top cover (horizontal distance).
When you are planning the location of the modules, start to mount them in a height that makes it easy
to reach the handsets and to read the handsets’ display.
2. Measure and mark the drill holes by using the dimensions in Figure 4. Mounting dimensions in mm.
Charging Rack seen from the back, page 7.
3. Dill and fasten the Charging Rack on the wall with four screws.

Power Supply by Power Cord to Wall Outlet
The Charging Rack is delivered with a cord with an IEC C14 connector (male). An extension cord IEC C13 AC
connector (female, IEC60320-C13) to wall socket has to be ordered separately. It shall be connected
between the pre-installed AC connector (male) and the wall socket.

For the Advanced Charging Rack, connect the communication cable when required.
Installation Test
1. Connect the mains power supply cord to the wall socket.
2. The LED on the front of the charger should light up.
The LED is disabled on the Basic Charging Rack and will not light up. Put a handset into a charging
slot and check if the handset LED lights up.
Power Supply by Fixed Connection
If the Charging Rack shall be connected with a fixed connection, the AC connection must be done
by a authorized electrician.
It is possible to use any of the two AC terminal blocks for AC input. Consequently, the unused terminal
block may be used to connect the next Charging Rack or battery pack charger.
The Power Supply module connects to 100-240VAC/0.7A 50/60 Hz. When working with the units the mains
power supply cable must always be disconnected. The safety covers must be mounted on top of the power
supply terminal blocks to prevent hazardous situations, like electric chock.
