BATIERIES
2.8 HUNTER is battery powered. It runs for a long time on a set of
standard 'AA' size cells obtainable anywhere.
2.8.1
2.8.2
VE.RY09F'
A second rechargeable battery is permanently built into HUNTER
so data is not lost even if the main batteries are removed. This
battery should never need to be replaced.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
The batteries are spring-loaded to make contact and retained by
a threaded plug. When installing batteries, follow this
procedure:-
1. ONLY USE A COIN in the battery plug. Screwdrivers,
etc., will damage the slot and HUNTER's appearance.
2. Feed in the cells,
positive inwards. Don't i;lrop the
'AA' cells in vertically - they can be damaged.
Instead, slope HUNTER slightly.
3. Take the battery plug and, with finger pressure only,
press into the battery compartment and tum.
4. Only when the thread is started, use a coin to screw the
plug home.
The battery plug should stand about 2mm proud from the case
wall.
NOTE: Clockwise inserts the plug
Anti-clockwise removes the plug
MAIN BATTERY - PRIMARY
We strongly recommend the use of Alkaline-Manganese batteries
similiar to Mallory MN1500.
We do not recommend the use of cheaner zi nc-carhon eel 1 s for
routine operation, since these can suffer electrolyte lenkage,
have shorter li.ves and can introduce technical problems.
Alkaline cells will produce -approximat.ely 45 hours of HUNTER use
when running a typical application program, and almost
indefinite storage li.fe. There is no need to remove cells from
HUNTER during storaf',e or shipn,ent but remember that capacity
will reduce wlth time.
