Charging Station
The GX-2009’s NiMH batteries are charged with the GX-2009 Charging
Station. There are two types of charging stations available, the standard
AC powered charging station and the optional vehicle plug DC powered
charging station.
AC Powered Charging Station
The standard AC powered charging station is available in configurations
that charge from one to five instruments at a time. The single instrument
charging station consists of one instrument charging base and an AC
adapter. The AC adapter for the standard charging station plugs into a 115
VAC wall outlet and connects to the charging station with a jack on the end
of a five foot DC output cable. The AC adapter will also work for 100 VAC
or 220 VAC if an appropriate plug adapter is provided. The single
instrument AC charging station is shown in Figure 4.
