AC Power
When the user connects the monitoring system to an AC power source, if the
internal battery requires charging, the battery condition indicator on the front
panel lights until the internal battery reaches complete charge. In addition,
when the monitoring system is powered on, the battery fuel gauge on the
monitoring screen displays a lightning bolt indicating connection to AC.
If the user powers off the monitoring system while the internal battery is
charging, the battery condition indicator remains lit and the internal fan turns
on until charging completes. Reference
