Installing the backup battery kit
The OmniTrax sensor supports the addition of an optional rechargeable 6 VDC backup battery,
that can be installed on the enclosure door. The battery kit includes a 6 VDC battery, a mounting
bracket and hardware, a battery harness and a fuse. The processor includes an intelligent
charging circuit, that when enabled, keeps the battery fully charged (see Using the optional local
backup battery on page 196).
CAUTION Use ONLY the battery specified for Silver Network devices (GE0487).
DO NOT substitute any other batteries.
