The
battery status
is displayed as a battery symbol in the upper right corner of the LC-display, when the unit
is turned on.
When the battery turns empty, the battery symbol turns to red. In this state several measurements still can
be obtained; but it is time to put it on the charging console to avoid a total discharge and damage to the
battery.
Charging starts automatically by placing the device on the charging console. Please keep the charging
contacts on the console and under the device always clean. If oxidized, use a special metal contact cleaner.
Five seconds after placing the device on the console the display will show an animated battery symbol. When
the symbol displays a full battery, the charging is completed and the battery is fully charged. Completely
charging an empty battery will take approximately four hours.
Datacolor 45IR has a regulated charging management. This means it will power-charge an empty battery, so
the device can be used again after a few minutes. On the other hand, there is no overcharging of full batteries.
You can park the device on the charging console when not in use. This way it is guaranteed to have always an
operational measurement instrument at hand.
Up to 10,000 measurements can be carried out with one battery charge.
