NEWPORT SMART BATTERY BOX METER
OPERATION
For user convenience, the Newport Smart Battery box
is designed to measure the most accurate charge level
of any user-supplied 12V Deep Cycle or Marine Battery
when connected to a running motor. Despite the
directions written on the battery box meter, the 12V
battery hooked up inside the box needs to be under
load by being connected to a running motor via the
external terminals for the meter to read the most
accurate battery charge level of the battery.
To measure battery charge level while connected to
a running motor:
1. Press and hold the test button. The number of
blue LEDs lit relative to the total number of LEDs
indicates the battery's charge level.
2. After you release the button, the last LED will
blink for several seconds to confirm that the USB
port is functioning correctly. If the USB port isn't
working properly, the last LED will not blink.
NEWPORT SMART BATTERY BOX USB PORT
OPERATION
To use the USB Port, plug in the USB device into the
port. Then press the test button to wake up the
system. When the USB port is connected to a mobile
device and is charging it, the last LED will keep
flashing for the duration of the connection.
