5. Power Supply
The J2KN Pro base unit has an internal power supply, and
it is recommended to always run the unit on AC power. For
testing locations where an AC plug-in is not available, the
instrument can be operated from 6-8 hours on battery power
when fully charged. Connecting the J2KN-Pro to AC power
charges the battery and is necessary to operate the Peltier
cooler and heated probe.
When the battery level gets low, the analyzer will start to
beep and display a low battery warning. The voltage reading
on the battery is displayed in the Control screen. The warn-
ing is activated when the charge drops below 6 V. When it
reaches 5.8V, the battery charge is not sufficient to power
the unit.
Only use batteries supplied by ECOM.
Contact ECOM with any questions.
The J2KN remote control unit is powered by 3 nickel-
metal-hydride batteries (type AA). These batteries are re-
charged by docking the remote control unit onto the J2KN
base unit. To change the settings for recharging these batter-
ies, go to:
Adjustments -> Internal -> Reload function -> OK
1. Recharging function ON (<F1> = YES)
- Batteries slowly and carefully recharged
- Recommended for frequent use
2. Recharging function OFF (<F4> = NO)
- Batteries quickly recharged
- Recommended for occasional use
- Note: Battery run-time is reduced on quick charge!
1. Charge the battery after each use
2. Always store unit with fully charged battery
3. Charge the battery at least once a month if
not in use
