Getting Started
Your Responder LC remote is powered by an internal rechargeable
battery that can only be serviced by an authorized Directed dealer.
Due to transit and storage time prior to your purchase, the battery
charge may have depleted. To ensure proper operation, check the
battery level and connect the battery charger if not fully charged.
See “Battery Information (Responder LC)” on page 49 and “Status
Screen Icons” on page 8 for more information about the battery.
Charging the remote control:
1. Plug the AC adapter into a 110V AC outlet. Insert the mini-USB
connector into the mini-USB port located on the side of the
remote control (see diagram under Responder LC 2-way). The
text field will display CHARGE to indicate the remote control is
charging (The remote remains operational while charging and
can command the system).
2. Once fully charged the text field will display FULL .
3. The remote control is then ready for use. Disconnect the mini-
USB end from the remote control first and then the AC adapter
from the AC outlet.
Note If the battery is excessively depleted when the charger is
connected, functionality may be delayed while it charges to
the minimum voltage required to operate the display, after
which normal charging resumes.
