Charging the Lithium-Ion Batteries
• Ensure the instrument is dry.
• Plug the data/power cable into the instrument.
• Plug one of the power adapters (flying leads, wall wart, 12V cigarette lighter) into the
data/power cable.
• Apply power and allow the instrument to charge until the large LED on the instrument
turns from yellow to solid green. A full charge requires approximately 3 hours. If the large
LED is:
o off, the battery is charged.
o solid yellow, the battery is on standby.
o flashing red, an error has occurred.
The connections should be made to the instrument before plugging the charger into the
AC outlet for proper charging operation.
• Turn the instrument off after charging (unplug the data/power cable) to maintain a full
charge after charging.
