3.1 Charge Your Lightpad Block
You should charge your Lightpad Block as the first step before proceeding.
When connected to a suitable power source, the Lightpad Block can charge
additional Blocks that are connected to its DNA connectors.
Plug the included USB “C” cable into the Lightpad Block and plug the other
end of the cable into a USB 3 charger or a computer with a USB 3 port. The
Lightpad Block requires 5 watts of power to run and charge the battery
efficiently. Adding more Blocks via the DNA connectors will increase the
demand for power so we recommend using a higher output charger such as an
iPad charger (10-12 watts) or a higher output USB 3 charger.
Please note that when charging via a computer that you must use the ROLI
supplied USB cable to connect to the host computer. When using a laptop
computer please make sure that itis plugged into a wall outlet and has its
sleep feature disabled. This configuration will charge one Lightpad Block and
one Live Block or Loop Block, but not all three unless they are powered off.
