Getting Ready to Test and Compete
Before beginning any Lessons in this Unit, you will need to check that your Battery is charged.
Check Battery Levels
In this animation, first insert a battery into an IQ brain. Then press the checkmark to power on the IQ brain. The IQ brain shows a “low battery” warning message. Then hit the x button to dismiss the warning message.
Your Battery level can also be checked by using the indicator lights on the side of the Battery. In this animation, when you pressed the power button on the Battery pack, it shows only one green light on the indicator lights.
Use the following list to understand how much percentage of the charge the Battery gets.
- 1 light: 0-25% charge
- 2 lights: 25-50% charge
- 3 lights: 50-75% charge
- 4 lights: 75-100% charge
Charge Battery
In this animation, turn the IQ Battery to the side with a USB-C port. Then plug in the USB-C charging cable. The indicator lights should be blinking to indicate the charging status.
Once you know you have a charged battery, insert the Battery into the Brain.
