Battery
The MaxTester is equipped with a Lithium Polymer battery.
When fully charged, the battery should provide between 3 and 10 hours of
power depending on different factors such as: type of tests performed,
display backlight level, and connected accessories.
Note:
When the battery level is very low, tests cannot be performed. Plug in the
AC/DC adapter for continued operation and to recharge the battery.
However, the charge speed will be reduced. Should the voltage detection
beeper sound when the unit is plugged in, remove the AC/DC adapter.
To maximize the battery power of the MaxTester:
1.
Lower the display backlight level using the application found in
Display and Language
in the
System
Settings
, when the unit is used
under low to medium light conditions.
2.
Disconnect any unused USB or SD accessories.
3.
Quit any running tests when the MaxTester is not in use.
4.
Whenever possible, put the unit in suspend mode by pressing until
the suspend notification sound plays, about 2 seconds.
5.
When not in use, turn the unit off by pressing for at least 4 seconds.
If the battery capacity remains low or outside the previously stated values,
it should be replaced. This could occur after 3 years depending on the
usage. If your current battery capacity is lower than 8000 mAh, replace the
battery.
