•
DO'S AND DONT'S
Do: • Connect the C4000 Battery Analyzer to the correct line voltage.
The operating voltage is indicated on the instrument label on bottom of
the unit.
• Recharge NiCd batteries between SoC and 3S 0C (410F and 96
oF). Fast-charging outside this temperature range may cause damage
to the battery.
Note Allow cold battery to warm up before charging;
Allow hot battery to cool before charging.
• Use the correct battery for which the adapter is configured to.
Failure to do so may cause damage to the battery. Battery parameters
can be verified by pressing the appropriate Display Key when the
Station is empty.
•
•
Don't:
• Clean battery contacts before servicing •
• Do not short leads from one Station to another or to the case. An
electrical short to any point outside the Station bypasses the current
regulation loop and will cause a fuse to blow. A shorted battery will
cause no harm.
• Do not transmit in close proximity. The C4000 is equipped with high
frequency switch-mode power supplies. The advanced circuits may be
sensitive to RF interference.
• Rule of Thumb: The following distances should be observed when
transmitting:
0.5 Watt of transmit power
=
0.3m (1')
1 Watt of transmit power
=
0.6m (2')
2 Watts of transmit power
=
1.2m (4')
4 Watts of transmit power
=
204m (8')
• Do-not restrict the airflow of the analyzer. Leave the fan opening
clear. Fan operation is automatic.
• Do not expose LCD to direct sunlight.
