To conserve battery life, you can set the driver to turn off battery backup after a 

specified number of days and depend on the archive function to restore data 

when the power returns. 

A low battery is indicated by the 

Battery Low

 LED or a low battery alarm in the i-

Vu CCN Plus/Pro application, a touchscreen device, and Field Assistant. 

Real-time clock 

Battery-backed real-time clock keeps track of time in event of power failure
