GE MAC 5 A4 User Manual

Maintenance
• To make sure a fully charged battery in between acquisitions, power off the
system and connect it to an AC wall outlet until you use the system again. This
prolongs battery runtime.
The battery status indicator in the upper-right corner of the Acquisition screen shows
how much charge the battery has available, and when the device is charging the
battery. For more information on the battery status indicator, see Battery Status on
page 18.
• When the battery is charging, the color of the battery status indicator on the
screen is green. The battery LED on the keyboard flashes the amber light at two-
second intervals.
• When the battery is low or critically low, the color of the battery status indicator on
the screen is red. If the total charge level drops below 15%, an error tone notifies
you and a message displays indicating that the battery is low. If the total charge
level drops below 10%, the error tone is louder, longer, and sounds every minute,
and a message displays indicating that the battery is critically low and you should
connect to AC power immediately. The battery LED on the keyboard flashes the
amber light at half-second intervals.
• When the battery is completely discharged, the device powers off. To operate your
device, you must connect the system to an AC wall outlet. The battery LED on the
keyboard turns off.
• If the battery is fully charged or exceeds safe charging temperature, the device will
not charge the battery. The color of the battery status indicator on the screen is:
• Green, if the device is connected to AC power.
• White, if the device is not connected to AC power.
The battery LED on the keyboard turns off.
