Each adapter contains up to ten battery service parameters called Configuration Codes (or
C-Codes) in non-volatile memory. C-Codes will not be lost when adapters are removed and
reinserted into any station on the analyzer or when the analyzer is turned off.
Custom adapters are pre-programmed with C-Codes for the most common batteries. If a
battery C-Code is not available, program a new C-Code or reprogram an existing C-Code
into the analyzer.
Universal adapters, designed for generic batteries, are programmed with blank C-Codes
and will display N

when inserted (see Create or Edit a C-Code, page 55). Battery
Adapters can be installed, removed or reprogrammed while other stations are being used.
Once the adapter is inserted, the battery station receiving the adapter automatically uses
the last selected C-Code.
Cadex continuously designs and manufactures adapters for new battery models. A list of
current Battery Adapter models is available in the adapter catalog available in print or on the
Cadex website. Contact Cadex for a current adapter catalog or download a copy from our
web site at www.cadex.com. Cadex also designs custom adapters for a wide variety of
applications. A Battery Adapter Design Form can be downloaded from the Cadex website and
used to order a custom adapter.
