POWER SUPPLY

BATTERY OPERATION
The scale can be operated from the battery if desired. The battery
life is approximately 80 hours.
When the battery needs charging an indicator “Battery Low” on
the COUNT display will be on. The battery should be charged
when the symbol is on. The scale will still operate for about 10
hours after which it will automatically switch off to protect the
battery.
To charge the battery, simply attach the power supply module to
the scale and plug in. The scale does not need to be turned on.
The battery should be charged for 12 hours for full capacity.
There is an LED to indicate the status of battery charging on the
right of display. When the scale is plugged into the mains power
the internal battery will be charged. If the LED is Green the battery
has been charged. If it is Red the battery is nearly discharged
and Yellow indicates the battery is increasing the charge level.
As the battery is used it may fail to hold a full charge. If the battery
life becomes unacceptable then contact your distributor.
Note:
The battery should be recharged every 3 months if the scale is not
used for long time.
