Base Charge Mode

In order for the battery to be charged, there must be enough voltage for the circuitry to work. There are three conditions during which power can be supplied to the base:

Condition 1: 9VDC power supply connected to the barrel connector

Condition 2: 12VDC host power source only

Condition 3: 5VDC host power source only

The chart below describes each selection by condition.
