2.6  Battery replacement 

If the capacity is below 10%, the 

red LED

 (Figure 2- 8) will start 

blinking.  When the 

status red LED

 is solid, the battery capacity 

is below 5% and it must be recharged or replaced with a fully 
charged battery.  More accurate battery status can be monitored 
using the web interface on the 

BATTERY

 tab (refer to 

section 3.5). 
To replace the battery, turn off the unit by pressing and holding 
the power button until 

all LEDs

 are off and ensure that PVE-PS  

supply is disconnected. 
Unscrew the thumb screws (Figure 2 - 10) on the bottom cap of 
the unit and pull out the battery.  Insert the replacement battery 
positioning the contacts inside the unit.  Put the cap back and 

thoroughly tighten the thumb screws to compress the rubber gasket.  The battery has internal protection from 
overcharging and over discharging or short circuit.  The battery life time is about 500 cycles (while maintaining 
about 70% of the initial capacity) depending on operational conditions.  Do not charge the battery if the 
temperature is below 0°C (32°F) to prolong the battery life.  Store the spare batteries in a dry place; preferably 
the temperature should not exceed 30°C (86°F).   
 

  

Warning

:

 

The battery used in this device may present a risk of fire or chemical burn hazard if mistreated. 
Do not recharge, disassemble, heat above 60°C (140°F) or incinerate. Replace battery with Saft model 
1S1P MP 176065 only. Use of another battery may present a risk of fire or explosion. 
 
 
La batterie utilisée dans cet  appareil peut présenter un risque d’incendie ou de brûlure chimique  en  cas de 
mauvais emploi. Ne pas recharger, démonter, chauffer à plus de 60C (140F) ni  incinerer. Remplacer la 
batterie uniquement par le model Saft 1S1P MP 176065. Une autre batterie peut provoquer  un  incendie ou 
une explosion. 

 
 

2.7  Using wired network connection 

 
 

PVE400 has a standard 10/100Base-T Ethernet adapter accessible 
via AUX connector.  Since AUX connector is also used for 
RS232 interface and external power, a special cable is required to 
use Ethernet function.  PVE-AUX is 5 feet (1.5m) CAT5E grade 
cable with RJ45 plug (T568B) on one side and Automatic 
Latching, Self Aligned 10 pin connector on the other side.  
Gently plug and rotate AUX side of the connector until it mates, 
and push to lock.  In this position the connector is securely 
locked and pulling cable will not disconnect it.  To unplug, pull 
the bottom sleeve of the connector.  If AUX connector is not used, 
make sure that the protection cap is always put. 
Addendum  8.3 has AUX connector pin out and wiring diagram 
for PVE-AUX cable.
