139Automation PC 620 with 945GME N270 CPU board User's Manual V 1.10
2.13.30 Battery
The lithium battery (3 V, 950 mAh) buffers the internal real-time clock (RTC) as well as the
individually saved BIOS settings and is located behind the black cover. The buffer duration of the
battery is at least 4 years (2½ years with the SRAM module model number 5AC600.SRAM-00
or with an APC620 embedded system unit and at 50°C, 8.5 mA current requirements of the
supplied components and a self discharge of 40%). The battery is subject to wear and should be
replaced regularly (at least following the specified buffer duration).
For more on changing the lithium battery, see chapter 7 "Maintenance / Servicing", section
"Changing the battery", on page 493.
For technical information on the lithium battery, see chapter 6 "Accessories", section 4
"Replacement CMOS batteries", on page 418.
Battery status evaluation
The battery status is evaluated immediately following start-up of the device and is subsequently
checked by the system every 24 hours. The battery is subjected to a brief load (1 second) during
the measurement and then evaluated. The evaluated battery status is displayed in the BIOS
Setup pages (under Advanced - Baseboard monitor) and in the B&R Control Center (ADI driver),
but can also be read in a customer application via the ADI Library.
