Battery Information
Basic Operation
4-19
Battery Life Battery life is dependent upon:
• Condition of the batteries.
• Parameters being monitored - ECG only, ECG and Spot Check SpO
2
, or
ECG and Continuous SpO
2
.
• Use of the Short Range Radio Adapter (SRRA). The transceiver’s
batteries power the SRRA, and under normal operating conditions, battery
life may be reduced by up to 25%. See Cross Ref.
For battery life estimates, see the table on page 12-8.
You can optimize battery life by:
• Removing the batteries when the transceiver is not in use. Keep them
paired for future use.
• Disconnecting the SpO
2
adapter cable, if used. When the SpO
2
sensor is
disconnected, the SpO
2
functionality is automatically powered down, but
if an adapter cable is still connected, it will continue to drain power from
the SpO
2
electronics.
