Spectralink PTS360 Prospecto

Link Quick Charger

The Link Quick Charger is designed to charge a single

NiCd (Nickel Cadmium) or NiMH (Nickel Metal

Hydride) Battery Pack (model PTS360) in 60-90 minutes.
Set up the Link Quick Charger by plugging the power

supply into the Link Quick Charger and into an appro-

priate wall outlet. A solid red LED above the empty

charger slot indicates that the slot is idle and ready for

use. If the LED does not light, check the power sup-

ply and plug connection to the charger. If the charger

appears to be plugged in correctly, make sure the wall

outlet has power.
Do not place anything in the Link Quick Charger other

than the Battery Pack for the Link Wireless Telephone.

You might damage the contacts. Bent contacts can keep

the Battery Pack from charging.

Using the Link Quick Charger
Remove the Battery Pack from the Link Wireless

Telephone by sliding the Battery Pack down and off

while pressing the Battery Pack release button on the

back of the handset.
Place the Battery Pack in the charging slot by aligning

the top of the Battery Pack with the tracks on the charg-

ing slot then gently sliding the Battery Pack upward onto

the charging slot. While the Battery Pack is in the charg-

ing slot, the LED above the slot will indicate the status

of the charging process and/or the Battery Pack.

LED Status Indicators
Solid Green—the Battery Pack is charging. The Link

Quick Charger takes 60-90 minutes to fully charge a

Battery Pack. If the NiMH Battery Pack is hot or cold

when placed in the charger, it may take longer to charge.
Flashing green—the Battery Pack is fully charged and

ready for use. You may leave a fully charged Battery Pack

in the Link Quick Charger. However, if you remove a

fully charged Battery Pack then replace it in the charger,

the charger LED will be solid green until the charger

determines that this Battery Pack is fully charged. It may

take a few minutes to give the flashing green indication.
Solid red or flashing red—the Battery Pack in the charg-

ing slot is no longer capable of retaining a charge and is

not usable. If the Battery Pack will not charge, do not

continue to charge the Battery Pack. Dispose of it prop-

erly and do not attempt to use it in the handset. Do not

attempt to open or repair a defective Battery Pack.
Flashing red/green—there is a problem with either the

Battery Pack or Link Quick Charger. It may mean the

Battery Pack being charged is too hot or too cold. Allow

the Battery Pack to stabilize at room temperature and try

again. If the Battery Pack will not charge, do not contin-

ue to charge the Battery Pack. Dispose of it properly and

do not attempt to use it in the handset. Do not attempt

to open or repair a defective Battery Pack. If several dif-

ferent Battery Packs cause the charger to show a flashing

red or red/green LED, the charger may not be working

properly. To verify this, substitute another Link Quick

Charger and repeat the operation that caused the failure.

If the same Battery Pack lights a green LED when insert-

ed in a different charger, the Link Quick Charger is faulty.

Contact your service representative for assistance.
Flashing yellow—the Link Quick Charger is testing and

conditioning the Battery Pack. This test/condition mode

is automatically started every 11th cycle of the charger.

Testing the NiCd standard Battery Pack takes approxi-

mately four hours; testing the NiMH high- capacity

Battery Pack takes approximately eight to ten hours. To

manually start the test, press the MODE button. To stop

the test, press the MODE button. However, it is highly

recommended that the test be allowed to complete.

• Chargers operate in a 50° to 85° F (10° to 30° C) environ-

ment. Do not expose them to freezing temperatures or

direct sunlight.

• The Link Quick Charger is only authorized for use in the

U.S. and Canada.

•    Only use the original SpectraLink plug-in power supply.
•    Only use SpectraLink Battery Packs in this charger.
•    It is normal for the Battery Pack to become warm when

charging.

• Never use non-SpectraLink charging units as they could

damage the Battery Pack.

• Do not immerse the Link Quick Charger in water or other

liquid. Do not pour liquids into the charging slots.

• Do not dip the Battery Pack in water or throw into fire.
• Recycle or dispose of Battery Packs according to local

requirements.

• Replacement Battery Packs are available from your supplier

or servicing agent.

Battery Pack Bins—If a handset is to be used during

the recharging cycle, fully charged Battery Packs must

always be available. Therefore, it is recommended that a

bin is available to collect discharged Battery Packs and a

second bin for charged Battery Packs. Users can quickly

replace their discharged Battery Pack with a charged one.

An assigned person can recharge the Battery Packs and

move them to the charged bin as they are recharged. It

is also recommended that the bins be non-metallic and

clearly labeled to identify whether they are intended for

charged or discharged Battery Packs.
