The external battery charger (option ML2400A-13) can completely
charge the battery in 2.5 hours.
For optimal battery life, the battery should be fully discharged before
recharging. Repeated partial charge/discharge cycles can result in a
loss of battery capacity, recoverable by applying several “conditioning”
(full charge/discharge) cycles. If the power meter determines that a
battery conditioning cycle is required, a message stating this
requirement will be displayed on the front panel, and will remain until
the battery is fully conditioned or replaced. A number of complete con-
ditioning cycles may be necessary to fully condition a battery.
The ideal battery temperature ranges are:
q
Discharging: –20 to +50° C (-4 to +122° F)
q
Charging: +10 to +45° C (+50 to +113° F)
Note that charging will be inhibited if the temperature falls outside
these limits.
To remove the battery, first disconnect any AC or DC input line power.
Open the battery compartment as illustrated and remove the battery.
Replace the battery only with an identical battery or an equivalent as
recommended by an Anritsu Service Center. Ensure that the battery
is correctly connected and that the battery compartment cover is se-
curely fastened.
Note that the battery is an optional component that is not used for the
retention of nonvolatile memory functions, and is not required for the
Power Meter to operate from either AC or DC line sources. Serial and
GPIB remote operation, however, are not available when the power
meter is running from battery power.

CAUTION
·
The ML2400A battery pack
can leak, explode, or catch
on fire if it is opened, disas-
sembled, or exposed to fire
or very high temperatures.
No attempt should be made
to open, repair, or modify
