Steinmeyer Mechatronik accepts no liability for free software and therefore also offers no support for such programs.
Power supply / USB charging
• Recharge the lithium-ion battery after the FM5-BT has been in storage for a long period of time or, at the latest, when the battery icon at the top
left of the display starts to flash (Fig. 6).
• Unscrew and remove the protective cap (7, Fig. 4) on the FM5-BT and slide the protective lid that is behind it to the right.
• Connect the FM5-BT to a mains outlet using a USB cable and a power supply unit with the right adapter for your country.
A charging icon is shown on the display during the charging process. End the charging process once the battery is fully charged or after around
4 hours.
The FM5-BT cannot be used while it is charging.
It is also possible to recharge the battery via a USB cable that is connected to a computer, but this will take longer.
You can also recharge the unit via a USB cable and a car USB recharging adapter (12 V) that is plugged into a power socket in a car.
Notes
Laser radiation: The FM5-BT is a class 2 laser device. Do not look directly into the laser beam (warning sign on the FM5-BT).
Hints for use: Keep the FM5-BT clean and dry. It is particularly important to keep the glass plates clean. Avoid dropping the unit and other
forms of mechanical damage. Acclimatise the FM5-BT unit before using it, and avoid large jumps in temperature.
Operator responsibility: The operator is responsible for making sure that the unit is used properly and for the operational safety and reliability of the
equipment, as well as for compliance with applicable safety requirements, accident prevention regulations, environmental reg-
ulations and occupational health and safety regulations.
Control measurements: Regular control and reference measurements to determine the measurement tolerances should be performed. To determine
the tolerance for the catenary stagger, align the FM5-BT with measuring bar rotated through 180° on the track and perform the
measurement again.
Repairs: All repairs and inspection work are performed by technical personnel at the manufacturer.
Inspection interval: The inspection interval is 2 years. Observe the test report and the test sticker on the FM5-BT.
Further information: Refer to the additional information provided in the operating instructions of the FM5-BT. Further documents are available on
request.
