POWER AND BATTERIES
During a weighing session, the Weigh Scale can be powered by its internal
battery alone but in most cases with the Dairy Scale both the Weigh Scale
and battery are connected directly to the supplied AC power pack.
When the Weigh Scale is disconnected from the power source (e.g. for
connection to a computer at another location) the battery will provide power
for a minimum of eight hours.
Battery charge status
The battery icon displays in the bottom left corner of the Weigh Scale's upper

It is important to note that the battery icon will only ever show the actual
amount of charge left in the battery when the Weigh Scale is turned on and
disconnected from external power.
