Note: To begin scanning make sure at least two batteries are at 80% full (4 out of 5 LED indicators on).
Check the battery level
Press the button on the side of the battery to check if the battery needs charging. Each LED indicates 20% of total charge.
The colors of the LEDS on the battery indicate different levels of charge:
GREEN: Over 70% charged
YELLOW: 50-70% charged
RED: 50% charged
Assemble the charger
Insert the cable's blue plug into the blue socket of the charger adapter.
Plug in the charger
When the charger is plugged in, but no batteries are connected, the LED indicator turns green.
Insert the batteries
You will hear a click when you correctly insert the battery, and the LED indicator will turn red.
Note: A pair of empty batteries will be fully charged in two and a half hours. Disconnect the batteries once charging is complete.
Note: We recommend that batteries have the same charge level when used during scanning, as the lifespan of the battery cells will decrease if the load is carried by only one battery. However, you can still operate NavVis VLX if the charge levels of the batteries do not match.
