8.4. Charging the oscilloscope
The lithium battery is possibly not charged when delivery. To make the battery with enough electric quantity, it must be
charged for 6 hours (the test tool must be turned off during charging). The battery can supply power for 4 hours after being
charged completely.
When supplying power by using the battery, a battery indicator is displayed on the top of the screen to show the
consumption condition of electric quantity. The symbols that are possibly appear include , , and , where shows
that the battery can only be used for about 5 minutes. To charge the battery and power the instrument, connect the
oscilloscope using a power adapter according to Figure 1 to charge the battery. The charging speed can be increased by
turning off the test tool.
Notice:
To avoid superheat of battery during charging, the environment temperature is not allowed to exceed the permissible value
given in technical specification.
Statutory Notification about the Battery Regulations
The delivery of many devices includes batteries, which for example serve to operate the remote control. There also could
be batteries or accumulators built into the device itself. In connection with the sale of these batteries or accumulators, we
are obliged under the Battery Regulations to notify our customers of the following:
Please dispose of old batteries at a council collection point or return them to a local shop at no cost. The disposal in
domestic refuse is strictly forbidden according to the Battery Regulations. You can return used batteries obtained from us
at no charge at the address on the last side in this manual or by posting with sufficient stamps.
Batteries, which contain harmful substances, are marked with the symbol of a crossed-out
waste bin, similar to the illustration shown left. Under the waste bin symbol is the chemical
symbol for the harmful substance, e.g. „Cd“ for cadmium, „Pb“ stands for lead and „Hg“ for
mercury.
You can obtain further information about the Battery Regulations from the Bundesministerium für Umwelt, Naturschutz und
Reaktorsicherheit (Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation and Reactor Safety).
