1. Important Safety Instructions

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This manual contains instructions and warnings that must be followed during the installation and operation of the product described in this manual.

Failure to comply may invalidate the warranty and cause property damage or personal injury.

AC Unit:

• To remove the AC unit from the supply mains, the power cord serves as a disconnect device.

• If any of the following situations arise, schedule an appointment to have your equipment inspected by a service technician:

• The equipment has been exposed to moisture

• The equipment has been dropped and damaged

• The equipment shows obvious signs of breakage

• The equipment is not functioning properly or is not functioning according to the instructions described in this Owner’s Manual

• Use of this equipment in life support applications where failure of this equipment can reasonably be expected to cause the failure of the life support equipment or to significantly affect its safety or effectiveness is not recommended.

Charging Station Cabinet:

• Keep the charging station in a controlled indoor environment away from moisture, temperature extremes, flammable liquids and gasses, conductive contaminants, dust and direct sunlight.

• Leave adequate space around the charging station for proper ventilation. Do not block, cover or insert objects into the charging station’s external ventilation openings.

• The charging station is extremely heavy. Use caution when handling the charging station. Do not attempt to unpack or mount it unassisted. Use a mechanical device such as a forklift or pallet jack to move the charging station in the shipping container.

• Do not place any object on the charging station, especially containers of liquid, and do not stack items on the cabinet.

• Inspect the shipping container and the charging station for shipping damage. Do not use the charging station if it is damaged.

• Use caution when cutting packing materials. The charging station could be scratched, causing damage not covered by the warranty.

• Save all packing materials for later use. Repacking and shipping the charging station cabinet or equipment without the original packing materials may cause product damage that will void the warranty.

For Wall-Mount and Desktop Installations:

• Before mounting, first make sure that the wall or desk surface can safely support the combined load of the charging station, equipment stored and all attached hardware and components.

• Always use suitable mounting means when installing to cinder block, concrete, drywall or wood studs.

• For desktop installations, the mounting brackets that shipped with the unit can also be used to secure the charging station to a desktop surface.

2. Overview

Your charging station is an all-in-one solution for storing and charging up to 16 devices. Your charging station can be conveniently mounted to walls, as well as used for stationary desktop or floor placement installations. To prevent theft and device tampering, your charging station enclosure comes equipped with locking steel doors.

4. Setup

Caution! Read All Instructions and Warnings Before Installation!

Warning: Charging stations can be extremely heavy. Do not attempt to unpack or mount the charging station without assistance. Use extreme caution when handling the charging station and be sure to follow all handling and installation instructions. Do not attempt to install equipment without first stabilizing the charging station.

4.1 Power Requirements

The charging station can be plugged into an AC outlet with a dedicated circuit. An AC outlet with a 20-amp (NEMA 5-20R) AC circuit is recommended for powering the charging station. The AC outlet used to power the charging station should not be shared. The total wattage of the charging station and all connected components should not exceed 1440 watts.

4.2 Adjusting Storage Shelf Dividers

Your charging station comes with a storage shelf containing adjustable dividers that can accommodate up to 16 personal electronic devices.

Remove any personal electronic devices stored on the shelf tray. Then remove the blanking panel by inserting your fingers into its left and right holes, and lifting the blanking panel up and pulling out A. To remove the shelf tray from the cabinet, push the shelf tray forward to disengage from the mounting hook, then pull the tray up and out. Once the shelf is removed, remove or rearrange the dividers by pushing in the two tabs securing the divider to the rear end B, then push the divider forward to disengage from the shelf tray C. Repeat as necessary for additional shelf dividers.

4.3 Connecting Devices and Powering the AC Unit

The charging station’s storage shelf features 16 strain relief bushings that prevent the devices’ power connectors from slipping through the bushing. If the blanking panel has not been removed in Section 4.2, first remove the blanking panel by inserting your fingers into its left and right holes, and lifting the blanking panel up and pulling out A. Connect the device’s power plug into one of the AC charger unit’s receptacles B, then run the power connector through the storage shelf’s strain relief bushing to establish a power connection C. Repeat for all devices.

With the blanking panel removed, find the AC unit’s input plug and cable located in the charging station’s bottom compartment, then push the input plug through one of the power cord access holes located on either side of the charging station cabinet D (using the power cord access hole on the same side as the power cord manager is recommended). Plug the power cord into the nearest 3-prong, grounded wall outlet and reattach the blanking panel to the unit.

Note: The power cord can optionally be routed through the charging station’s rear panel. To do so, first remove the rubber grommet from either power cord access hole and attach it to the cable lock routing hole on the back of the unit (see 3. Feature Identification for routing locations).

4. Setup

4.4 Door Locks

The split doors contain a lock that is accessible with the included keys.

5. Wall Mounting

For wall mounting, you will need:

• Level

• Appropriate tools for wall mounting

• Appropriate hardware for wall mounting (not included)

Warning: Do not attempt to mount the charging station to the wall with any personal electronic devices inside.

There are 4 keyhole cutouts on the charging station cabinet’s rear panel. Each keyhole can accommodate an M5 or 3/16” bolt. Each of the keyhole sets are centered 16” apart horizontally and 12” vertically (see the corresponding model diagram for exact keyhole locations).

Using a level and tape measure, measure to position your mounting areas precisely. Use appropriate fasteners (not included) to secure the charging station to the wall.

Note: The charging station must be installed by a qualified technician. Use suitable mounting means when installing to cinder block, concrete, drywall or wood studs. Warning: The supporting surface must be able to

safely support the combined load of the charging station, equipment stored and all attached hardware and components. See Section 7. Specifications for more information on your model’s weight and dimensions.

6. Desktop/Floor Placement

WARNING: For desktop and floor applications, always install the charging station in a structurally sound area with a level surface that is able to bear the weight of the charging station, all equipment that will be installed in the charging station and any other enclosures and/or equipment that will be installed nearby. Never attempt to lift or install the charging station without adequate help. See Section 7. Specifications for more information on the charging station’s rated load capacity.

Note: The mounting brackets that shipped with unit can also be used to secure the charging station to a desktop surface
