Overview
The*zioxi*range*of*Rechargeable*powerHubs*provide*a*mobile,*rechargeable*mains*and/or*USB*
power*source*for*use*in*any*setting*where*fixed*mains*power*sockets*are*not*available.*The*
powerHubs*contain*rechargeable*batteries*in*3*different*capacity*variants.*As*a*guide,*
powerHubs*with*100Ah*battery*capacities*(codes*containing*R100)*have*approximately*1000Wh*
of*output*capacity*when*the*batteries*are*new.*
*
The*powerHubs*are*designed*with*a*simple*Timed*On*button*which*when*pressed*turns*the*
power*on*for*a*set*period*of*time*–*this*time*is*factory*set*at*60*minutes*but*can*be*re-
programmed*to*any*time*period.*However*leaving*the*powerHub*on*&*providing*mains*power*
to*the*power*sockets*even*when*the*sockets*are*not*in*use*will*drain*the*batteries,*so*is*to*be*
avoided.*The*Timed*On*feature*is*therefore*designed*to*prevent*inadvertent*&*unnecessary*
depletion*of*the*batteries.*Recharging*the*batteries*is*typically*an*overnight*exercise.*
*
zioxi*Rechargeable*powerHubs*delivered*from*April*2017*onwards*are*fitted*with*a*
microprocessor*control*system*which*includes*the*capability*of*remote*web*based*monitoring*
and*control*using*zioxi*onView.*The*onView*web*app*provides*the*ability*to*remotely*view*
current*powerHub*status*(such*as*battery*charge*levels),*change*settings,*send*commands,*
receive*alerts*and*review*usage.*Using*zioxi*onView*requires*the*powerHub’s*WiFi*connection*
to*be*configured*to*one*or*more*WAPs*using*the*powerHub’s*Admin*function*and*also*requires*
user*provisioning*and*licencing*to*be*arranged*via*the*zioxi*team.*The*use*of*onView*is*
described*separately*in*the*onView*Guides*(available*from*the*onView*web*site*Support*pages*
once*logged*in).*

Starting Up the powerHub
The*powerHub*is*delivered*turned*off.*The*switch*for*turning*on*the*powerHub*system*is*
discretely*hidden*under*the*top.*
**
*
*
Toggle*this*switch*to*the*on*position*so*the*powerHub*screen*comes*on.*This*on*/*off*switch*can*
be*used*to*turn*off*the*powerHub*at*any*point*(eg.*during*holiday*periods)*and*may*be*useful*if*
the*powerHub*needs*to*be*“re-booted”.*
*
Initially*the*screen*will*display*the*zioxi*logo,*followed*by*the*Re-start*screen*(which*includes*
product*code*&*version*information).**
*
*
*
The*powerHub*will*then*revert*to*the*Standby*screen.**
*
The*screen*header*displays*the*battery*charge*level*and*the*WiFi*connection*status*alongside*
the*zioxi*logo.*In*the*bottom*left*of*the*screen,*the*powerHub*serial*number*will*be*displayed*
(or*a*Device*Name*if*this*has*been*entered*using*onView).*
*
The*Standby*screen*will*go*off*once*the*Display*on*Time*has*expired.*

the*powerHub*sockets*for*the*Timed*On*period*and*then*automatically*turn*off.**The*powerHub*
can*simply*be*re-started*by*pressing*and*releasing*the*button*again.*The*Timed*On*period*is*

powerHub Battery State of Charge
The*state*of*charge*of*the*rechargeable*batteries*within*the*powerHub*is*displayed*in*the*
header*bar*on*most*screens.*

powerHub*at*the*next*convenient*opportunity.*Once*the*battery*gauge*changes*to*a*single*Red*
bar*then*the*powerHub*should*be*re-charged*immediately.*
*
*
*
*
If*the*powerHub*is*left*for*a*further*period*of*time*without*re-charging*then*to*protect*it’s*
batteries*it*will*automatically*turn*off*power*to*the*powerHub*sockets,*display*a*red*warning**

state*by*pressing*the*black*button.**
*
If*the*state*of*charge*of*the*batteries*is*allowed*to*reduce*still*further,*the*powerHub*will*
automatically*go*into*a*deep*sleep*mode.*To*recover*the*powerHub*from*this*mode*it*will*need*
to*be*turned*off*and*back*on*using*the*on*/*off*switch*underneath*the*top*(even*if*it*has*been*
plugged*into*a*mains*supply*for*charging).*
*
The*state*of*charge*of*each*powerHub*can*be*viewed*remotely*using*onView.*
*
If*a*powerHub*is*going*to*be*left*idle*for*a*significant*period*of*time*(eg.*through*a*holiday*
period)*then*it*is*advisable*to*ensure*the*powerHub*is*fully*charged*before*it*is*left.*
Rechargeable*batteries*will*naturally*lose*their*charge*when*left*inactive.*It*is*also*advisable*to*
either*turn*the*power*off*(using*the*on*/*off*switch*under*the*top)*or*remotely*send*the*
powerHub*to*sleep*using*the*onView*Sleep*command.*
Re-charging a powerHub
To*recharge*a*powerHub*simply*plug*it*into*a*mains*supply*using*the*IEC*(kettle)*lead*supplied.*
The*IEC*connector*plugs*in*under*the*base*of*the*powerHub.*The*position*is*indicated*by*2*holes*
in*the*base*plate.*When*the*mains*lead*is*not*in*use*it*must*not*be*plugged*into*one*of*the*
powerHub’s*main*sockets*and*IEC*connector*in*the*base*at*the*same*time.*
*
*
*
The*powerHub*can*be*re-charged*by*either*wheeling*the*powerHub*to*a*convenient*socket*or*
temporarily*running*an*extension*lead*to*the*powerHub.*It*is*advisable*to*recharge*powerHubs*
in*locations*with*some*ventilation.*Always*re-lock*the*2*locking*castors*after*re-locating*the*
powerHub.*
*
Once*the*powerHub*is*connected*to*mains,*the*screen*will*change*to*display*it’s*charging*mode*
and*the*length*of*time*on*charge*in*that*mode.*

The*charging*mode*will*automatically*change*between*the*3*modes*as*each*phase*of*charging*is*
completed.*The*length*of*time*required*for*a*full*charge*from*a*fully*depleted*battery*will*vary*
depending*on*the*powerHub*capacity*but*will*typically*be*12*to*16*hours.*zioxi*onView*can*also*
be*used*to*remotely*monitor*the*Charging*status.*
*
Once*the*powerHub*has*entered*Trickle*charge*mode*it*is*almost*fully*re-charged*so*can*be*
used*if*required.*
*
The*powerHub*sockets*can*be*used*whilst*the*powerHub*is*connected*to*the*mains*supply*and*
the*powerHub*will*continue*to*charge*it’s*batteries.*
*
The*life*of*the*powerHub*rechargeable*batteries*is*dependent*on*a*number*of*factors.*If*a*
powerHub*is*recharged*everytime*when*it*reaches*Amber*on*the*battery*gauge*then*typically*
after*500*recharge*cycles*the*batteries*will*operate*to*80%*of*their*original*capacity*(this*is*the*
optimal*re-charging*approach).*The*batteries*can*be*replaced*as*a*chargeable*return*to*factory*
(or*approved*zioxi*agent)*service.*
Moving a powerHub
zioxi*powerHubs*are*designed*with*castors*to*enable*them*to*be*moved*around*&*located*
anywhere*inside*a*building.*Before*moving*a*powerHub*ensure*that*both*locking*castors*are*
unlocked*first,*and*then*re-engaged*once*the*powerHub*is*re-located.*
