To replace the MPC Open XP's battery
The MPC Open XP's 10-year Lithium CR123A battery retains the following data for a maximum of 720 hours
during power outages: time, control programs, editable properties, schedules, and trends.
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® application. You can purchase
replacement batteries from any retailer that sells a CR-123A battery.
1
Verify that the MPC Open XP's power is on.
2
Using a small flathead screwdriver, pry up each side of the black battery clip until it is free and you can
remove it.
