Figure 37: NCM Battery and Power Supply
NCM Battery Status
When the battery status LED is off, the battery and battery charging
circuit are operating properly. You can check on the battery status in
three ways:
• Light-Emitting Diode (LED) indicator
• NCM Diagnostics (“NCM Misc Data”) from Network map
• NCSETUP for Windows or, NCSETUP (DOS version, choose the
Read NC Type option [good, bad, not installed])
Notes: The LED may light for several seconds when a discharged
battery has been installed. If this condition persists for more than
one minute, replace the battery.
The Battery Fault LED indicates whether a battery is installed. It does
not indicate the charge level or operational status of the battery.
