Overview
Each FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module provides one USB Type-A port and one USB Type-C
port for charging USB devices via cables with USB-A connectors and
USB-C™ connectors, respectively. The charging behavior for an FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C
module differs depending on the type(s) of USB connections made:
• If a USB device is connected to the USB-A port and the USB-C port is not used, full
12 W charging rapidly charges the device.
• If a USB device is connected to the USB-C port and the USB-A port is not used, full
USB-C charging rapidly charges the device at up to 32.5 W maximum power.
NOTE: The rapidity of the USB-C charge varies depending on the device and its
power level.
• If devices are connected to both the USB-A port and the USB-C port, the USB-C
device rapidly charges while the USB-A device charges at a 2.5 W limit.
The FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module is 0.98" x 1.97" (25 x 50 mm), and it requires one empty
module space in the FT2-ELEC for installation. The FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module also
features a backlit LED icon that lights when the module is connected to an FT2 power bus.

Installation
NOTE: The FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module is only compatible with the FT2-ELEC series.
NOTE: No more that two FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C modules can be installed in an
FT2-ELEC:
• If two FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C modules are installed in an FT2-ELEC, each module
must be positioned in a different module row.
• Each module row containing a FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module must be powered by
its own power supply. For more information on installing power supplies, refer to the
FT2-ELEC DO Guide (Doc. 8216) at www.crestron.com/manuals.
Use the following procedure to install the FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module into an FT2-ELEC
assembly. If the FT2A-CHGR-USBA/C module is being installed as part of a new
FT2-ELEC installation, skip ahead to step 3.
1. Remove the magnetic bezel from the FT2-ELEC assembly by grasping the inside of
the bezel and by rmly pulling it up and away from the assembly until the magnetic
hold is broken.
2. Unscrew and remove the two locking bars on either side of the module row needed
for installation. For example, if installing the FT2-CHGR-USBA/C module in the
bottom row of an FT2-700, remove the middle and bottom locking bars.

3. Orient the module so that the module’s LED icon is facing toward the front of the
FT2-ELEC assembly as shown in the following illustration.

6. Hold the magnetic bezel over the assembly so that the lid retraction button on the
bezel is aligned with the front of the assembly. Then, lower the bezel onto the
assembly so that the lowered retractable lid ts inside the rear opening in the bezel
and the magnets snap into place against the assembly. Refer to the illustration
below.

4. Push the top of the module down into the appropriate module spaces in the
FT2-ELEC assembly so that the module slides into place. Use the guide ribs on the
front and rear of each module to help position the module in the assembly.

5. Once all modules and plates are installed and level with their surroundings, place the
removed locking bars back into position so that the screws on either side engage
the screw holes in the assembly. Then, hand tighten the two screws attached to the
sides of each bar until the bars are secured to the assembly.
CAUTION: To avoid stripping the screws on the locking bars, hand tighten the
screws using a manual screwdriver only.
