AC/DC Power Setup
Install either the AC adapter or the DC power cord
by inserting the charger plug into the power port of
the battery charger (see photo to the right) and then
rotating it a quarter turn in either direction to lock it
in place.
If using AC power, connect the AC power cord to
the AC adapter, then plug the cord into an AC
power receptacle (wall outlet). If using DC power,
plug the DC power cord directly into the DC power
source. Once powered, the orange LED on the
battery charger will begin to flash and the charger
will emit a series of beeps.
Charging a Battery Pack
With the battery charger connected to a power source and the orange LED flashing, insert a battery pack
into the battery charger. The battery pack will be flush with the battery charger when it is properly
inserted. The orange LED will stop flashing and turn solid, and the red LED will illuminate to indicate
active charging. Do not try to charge a non-DCI battery pack or an SE NiMH battery pack.
The battery pack is fully charged when the orange LED starts flashing again, the red LED goes off, and
the green LED starts flashing.
NOTE: The FBC can only be used to charge F Series battery packs.
Battery Charger LED Indicators
The battery charger has three LEDs (red, orange, and green) that are on, off, or flashing, depending on
the charging status. The chart below summarizes the charging status indicated by the various LED
settings, including the battery’s status, where applicable, and the charge time.
