Series BGI
4
2 POWER
The indicator is powered by a 7.2-volt NiCd or NiMH rechargeable battery. Since
batteries are subject to self-discharge, it may be necessary to recharge the unit
after a prolonged period of storage. Plug the accompanying charger into the AC
outlet and insert the charger plug into the receptacle on the gauge.
Do not use
chargers other than supplied or instrument damage may occur.
There are three levels of low battery voltage indication. At the first level, the
display shows a steady "LO BAT" indicating approximately one hour of charge
remaining. The second level is indicated by a flashing "LO BAT". At the third level,
the whole display except the "LO BAT" indicator will flash for three seconds after
which time the indicator will turn itself off. This prevents the instrument from
working at voltages too low for reliable operation.
