Battery Replacement - 

The Axis Rack Mounted Video 

Server Solution uses a 3.0V CR2032 Lithium battery as the 
power supply for its internal real-time clock (RTC). This battery 
will, under normal conditions, last for a minimum of 5 years. 
Low battery power affects the operation of the RTC, causing it 
to reset at every power-up. A log message will appear when 
battery replacement is required.. The battery should not be 
replaced unless required! If the battery needs replacing, please 
observe the following points:
• Caution! Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced
• Replace only with the same or equivalent battery, as 

recommended by the manufacturer

• Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's 

instructions
