5-14 RS232C REMOTE connector
This is a very small connector located in the
battery housing, the batteries need to be
removed to permit access. For this reason the
use of the REMOTE CONNECTOR demands
the use of an external regulated power supply.
The connector is partially hidden from view by
the lower battery near the serial plate and by the
angle of the cabinet. An optional adaptor
(IF-ADP) and interface (CU8232) is available for
cloning (copying) of data between two AR2700
receivers and an RS232 lead plus software is
required for computer control.
5-15 BATTERY compartment
Inside the battery compartment is
a cradle designed to accept 4 x
UM-3 (AA size) batteries.
Carefully note the polarity of the
cells (which way around they fit).
Either the supplied rechargeable
NiCad batteries or high quality
dry batteries may be used.
However, never attempt to
charge the receiver or connect to
an external power source when
dry batteries are fitted.
Always remove dry batteries
when they have expired (run
down). Should you plan not to
use the receiver for a period of
time and have dry batteries fitted,
remove the batteries to avoid
leakage.
Note: The memory channel
data is held by an internal
EEPROM which does not
require batteries or connection
