GDD’s IP Receiver, model GRx8
mini
, is powered by two internal rechargeable Lithium-ion
batteries.
The power level of the Rx internal batteries is indicated on the main screen of the Allegro
2
of the
GDD Rx software.
Here are a few tips for using and storing your
lithium-ion
powered receiver:
Usage
•
The connector located on the back of the receiver (CHARGER/EXT. BATTERY) is used to
connect the power supply or an external battery pack supplied by GDD. Connecting
other charger or external batteries using this connector could damage the batteries and
the receiver.
•
Do not replace the receiver's internal batteries without authorization and advice from
GDD’s technicians.
•
The total operating time of the receiver depends on environmental conditions. Using the
receiver in very cold weather (-20
0
C to –40
0
C) will lower the operating time.
•
The receiver will turn itself off when the batteries reach a critical level.
•
To extend battery life, avoid frequent full discharge and charge more often between each
use.
•
The CHARGE red light indicates that the batteries are charging. It turns off once the
batteries are fully charged.
