Powering
The ACL204 can be powered:
-
2 Mignon type (size AA) Alkaline, Li-Ion, or NiMH rechargeable cells. This will be indicated by a
battery icon in the upper right corner of the OLED that also serves as a battery status monitor.
Set correct battery type in Sys/Config menu for reliable low voltage warning.
Important: Batteries loaded under spring pressure! To avoid risk of injury through batteries
being rapidly ejected keep contact hinge firmly pressed when opening slider and softly release.
Obey correct polarity as shown on label. Push down battery hinge and close slider.
-
6 to 18 Volts DC via pin 4 of “A: TC/Tune” Lemo socket.
-
5 Volts DC via USB (under the slider near to power and configuration switch).
Applying powering from either Lemo or USB will bypass the power switch and turn on the unit. The
OLED screen will override the battery symbol with “EXT” to indicate external power.
You may leave the batteries in the unit in this condition to seamlessly switch over and keep the
generator running on power loss. External power has always priority over battery, so unit will
automatically switch over to external and no battery will be drained. However, there is no charging
function for rechargeable batteries when powered from external.
