Truck Mounted Charging System
7. Operation
To charge the TIC and spare batteries using the EVOLUTION
5000 Truck-Mounted Charging System make sure the TIC
charging pins and cradle are clean and free from debris.
1. Place the TIC into the charging cradle with the display
facing outward; secure the unit with the straps on the
charging cradle.
2. If charging a spare battery, place the battery into the slot
provided and secure it with the rubber retainer.
The power LED indicator should always remain green when
the power source is ON and properly connected. When the
Truck-Mounted Charging System is correctly installed, the
status indicators will light as follows:
Power Status LED Indicators

Any LED indication other than those listed indicates faulty
operation and the unit must be returned to MSA for service.
Note: For optimal performance, the battery charger should
be operated at temperatures between 10 to 30 °C (50 to
85 ° F). Charging batteries outside this temperature range
may result in a charging error and/or premature battery
degradation.
Charging batteries in environments greater than 38 °C
(100 °F) may result in premature termination of charge.
The charging cycle takes approximately 2.5 hours to
completely charge a single battery or five hours when
charging two completely discharged batteries.
