BATTERY CONTACTS MUST BE CLEAN BEFORE INSERTING
THE BATTERY. Dirty contacts can increase the resistance in the
connection between the adapter and the battery, causing false
voltage and current readings and in extreme cases, melting of the
contacts. To clean the battery contacts, use a lint-free cotton swab
dipped in 100% isopropyl alcohol.
The following message appears when the battery is detected:
Note The analyzer can be setup not to display this message
and start service (see Starting Battery Service, page 77).
If the display continues to display an Empty message, this means that the Cadex
analyzer is not recognizing the battery. There are a number of reasons this may
happen:
Battery is not inserted correctly. Verify that the battery is correctly and firmly
inserted into the adapter. Make sure that the contacts on the battery connect with
the contacts on the adapter and check for any switches on the battery.
Battery is completely discharged or protection circuits are open. Run the
Boost program by pressing the station key and holding it for two seconds (see
Boost, page 38).
4. Press ENTER to display the C-codes (see Chapter 6 - C-codes (Configuration
Codes), page 47).
