Description of Major Components

Depending on your order, your Starsys Mobile Power Cart will be delivered in a specific configuration.  The configuration 

may employ the following major components:

• 

Power Supply

• 

Lockalert Touchpad

Power Supply

•  The Lithium Iron Nano-Phosphate (Li-Nano) Power Supply is a rechargeable power source for the Starsys Mobile 

Power Carts.

• 

This Power Supply is a fully automatic power supply charger system with a nominal DC output voltage of 

12-24Volts (V) and a battery capacity of 420 Watt-hours (Wh) (35Ah).

• 

When plugged into an AC outlet, it supplies power to the equipment while also charging the Li-Nano cells.

• 

When unplugged from the outlet, the power supply switches automatically to supply the equipment from the internal 

Li-Nano rechargeable battery cells.

• 

The power supply is designed for continuous operation and service is not interrupted by plugging in or unplugging 

the power supply.

Lockalert Touchpad

•  Touchpad (See Figure 11) is powered by Li-Nano battery supply (separate charging for the touchpad is 

unnecessary).  Touchpad cable passes through the inside of cart body to the PCB main control board and then to 

power supply.

• 

Refer to user manual L01-451 for programming and touchpad maintenance.

Fuel Gauge

• 

To monitor the charge level of the power supply battery cells when operating on mobile power, a remote fuel gauge 

is connected to the power supply.  See Figure 12.

• 

Fuel gauge cable is connected to the power supply by a connector and a cable from power supply.

• 

The fuel gauge is located at the back of cart and just below the monitor mounting.  It gives the user the current 

battery status at eye level.
