Charging:

Only charge the device while OFF.
Make sure to fully charge your battery before use.


On the backside of the receiver is the battery door. Lift the tab and turn counter-clockwise to release the door. Insert the battery gently into the housing with the contact tabs facing down. Replace the door and turn the tab clock-wise to secure the door shut.

Connect the two-piece power cord and insert the LEMO connector end into the power port on the Asteri device.
*Be sure to line up the RED DOT on the cable with the slot on the bottom of the housing.

This is a "pin" connection, so be careful not to force the connection. If lined up properly, the connection will be easy.

Plug the AC adaptor into a power source and you will notice the battery LED's begin to pulse.
After the battery has achieved a certain level of power, that LED will stay lit.
