Maintenance 

Even the best technology needs regular maintenance. This chapter describes the most important points.  

6.1    Battery Replacement 

The batteries (see chapter 1.4.1 for the type of battery) of RMS devices typically last 3 years. The device shows 

automatically when the battery needs to be replaced. 

 

LED flashes red 

 

System message in the RMS server software 

 

The following steps are necessary to replace the battery: 

 

Take the device out of the wall bracket. 

 

Remove the old battery and insert a new one. 

 

The time setting of the data logger is synchronized automatically after the battery replacement.  

 

Important: 

 

The battery life depends on the ambient temperature. Low or high temperatures can lead to a shorter 

battery life.
