Hardware Considerations
Battery Operation
(This section applies only to a battery/charger previously purchased from SUEZ, prior to its
discontinuation.)
The battery and charger system typically enable four to five hours of operation. Battery life may be
extended if the Sensor is in Analysis mode only intermittently.
Before using the battery in the Sensor, the battery must be fully charged in the external charger.
When you charge the battery for the first time, you should also calibrate the fuel gauge. To calibrate
the fuel gauge and charge the battery for use, place the battery in the charger and press the Calibrate
button on the front of the charger. The blue LED will flash to indicate that the battery is undergoing
the recalibration cycle. The external charger will first charge the battery, carry out a controlled
discharge, and then recharge the battery. At the end of this cycle, the blue LED will stay constant and
your battery is ready for use. This calibration/charging cycle will take approximately seven to ten
hours.
Subsequently when you charge the battery, it will take approximately three hours. The battery does
not charge while it is inside the Sensor.
When the Sensor is operating on battery power, the battery icon displays in the upper right corner
(see Figure 28: The Battery Icon).
Figure 28: The Battery Icon
When the Sensor is operating under battery power and is analyzing a sample, the battery icon
alternates with the analysis icon (see Figure 29: The Analysis Icon).
