Premium Members Jason Blount Posted February 4, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 I recently had a problem with my AR304 charger where all the lights would quickly cycle through constantly when I plugged any batts into it for charging. I left it unplugged for a while and used my single charger and then tried it again later and it came good. Can anyone shed any light on this behaviour?

The solution is to uplug and allow to cool. No permanent damage... Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I basically followed those instructions and it came good, it's good to know what the cause may have been. Cheers, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nacho Minguez Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 Jason, you can download the operation manual from this link: http://www.paguk.com/Brochures/u4997%2030v%20ar.pdf Kind regards Nacho Minguez Steadicam Owner/Operator SPAIN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Jerry Holway Posted February 6, 2006 Premium Members Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 Jason, I figured you had bought the unit 2nd hand... even so, this particular effect is hard to find in the manual, hence the citation. I knew it was there and it took still awhile to find it! Great that it is available on-line; thanks Nacho. Jerry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Jason Blount Posted February 7, 2006 Author Premium Members Report Share Posted February 7, 2006 Thanks Nacho & Jerry...I should've done a more thorough job searching the net for the answer. Thanks again for your help. Cheers, Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
