Probe configuration
Operating mode
NOTE: Due to the nature of lithium-thionyl chloride batteries, if a “low battery” LED warning is ignored,
it is possible for the following sequence of events to occur:
1. When the probe is active, the batteries discharge until battery power becomes too low for the
probe to operate correctly.
2. The probe stops functioning, but then reactivates as the batteries recover sufficiently to provide
the probe with power.
3. The probe begins to run through the LED review sequence (see page 4.2, “Reviewing the
probe settings”, for further information).
4. Again, the batteries discharge and the probe ceases to function.
5. Again, the batteries recover sufficiently to provide the probe with power, and the sequence
repeats itself.
