If the AC line voltage is too low, the warning "LINE
POWER?" is displayed. This warning disappears within 1
minute when the correct AC line voltage is applied.
Fig. 3-5 Instrument set to charge mode, but AC line voltage missing.
• Charging is timed and takes 14 hours
• You can make measurements while the batteries are
being charged.
• If there are dry batteries in the instrument, and you select
charge mode, the instrument will confirm that charge
mode has been selected but the batteries will not be
charged as they do not have a charger contact.
• The charge cycle is terminated if the AC line voltage fails.
Note: If the LNT-2 AC adapter/charger is connected, a
charging current will flow which is sufficient to
compensate for the self-discharge of the NiMH
cells. To ensure that the full capacity of the NiMH
cells is available, they should be completely
discharged and then recharged at regular
intervals.
