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 charging (The remote remains operational while charging and can command the system).

2. Once fully charged the text ﬁeld will display

3. The remote control is then ready for use. Disconnect the miniUSB end from the remote control ﬁrst and then the AC adapter from the AC outlet.

If the battery is excessively depleted when the charger is
