The SPCPro2 uses a rechargeable internal battery to provide power for surveys
where a mains voltage is not available, and to provide back-up power in the
event of a mains failure during a normal survey. The battery will charge
whenever the unit is connected to a mains supply, but a faster charge rate is
achieved with the unit switched off. It is strongly recommended that the battery
is charged for a minimum of 12 hours prior to commencing a survey. Battery
condition may be checked via the software interface.
The unit requires little or no set up prior to commencing a survey, as the only
user-definable variable is the survey storage period/survey length. This is set via
the PC software. Once the storage rate has been set, it is not necessary to
repeat the procedure for future surveys unless the rate is changed.
Note: If the instrument does not power up as expected, or does not
communicate correctly with the PC, a GENERAL RESET may be carried out by
pressing and holding both buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The unit will
reboot when the buttons are released.
