7.1 Checking the state of batteries:

 

 

 

 

To check the state of the batteries in the 
head unit please follow the steps: 

 
1. Turn the Head ON. 

2. Read the voltage on the display placed at the 
bottom of the Remote Head. 

 
 
If the voltage is under 10,0 batteries need to 
be charged. 
If the voltage is 12,0 batteries are fully 
charged. 
  
 

 

To check the state of  the batteries in the control 
plate, please follow the steps: 
 

1. Connect the head and the controller with 
communication cable 
2. Keep the head OFF. 
3. Turn the controller ON. 
4. Read the voltage on the display placed at the 
bottom of the Remote Head. 

If the voltage is under 10,0 batteries need to be 
charged. 
If the voltage is 12,0 batteries are fully 
charged. 

 
 

7.2 When the batteries get empty: 

 

If the head will be used for a longer time, it is strongly recommended to connect 
it to the power supply to make sure that batteries will not get empty. 
 
 

   In the case the power supply is not available on 
site and the batteries in the head get empty, it is 
easy to replace them with standard AA 1.5V 
batteries.

  

 
IMPORTANT! If standard batteries are in use, 

DO 

NOT

 connect power adapter to the head power 

socket.

 

 

 

Replacing the head batteries 

 

 

If the batteries inside the head are empty, and you do not have spare AA batteries, extra power can be 
achieved by connecting the head and the controller with the cable. This will allow the head to use the power 
of controller’s batteries.
