Replacing
the battery
The battery of this instrument is specific: it includes suitable protection and safety elements.
Replacement of the battery by a model other than the one specified may cause material
damage and bodily injury by explosion or fire.
Replacement
procedure
1. Disconnect everything connected to the instrument and switch it off.
2. Turn the instrument over and insert a screwdriver in the slot in the battery pack.
3. Push the screwdriver towards the rear

the battery is driven out of its compartment. In the
absence of the battery, the internal clock of the instrument continues to operate for at least
60 minutes.
4. Put the new pack in the compartment and press until it is firmly in place.
To ensure uninterrupted safety, replace the battery only by the original model. Do not
use a battery with a damaged jacket.
1.4.1. LITHIUM-ION technology
The Li-ion technology
has many
advantages

long life between charges with limited bulk and weight

no memory effect: you can recharge the battery even if it is not fully discharged without
reducing its capacity

a very low self-discharge

the possibility of recharging the battery rapidly

protection of the environment, ensured by the absence of polluting materials such as lead
and cadmium.
1.4.2. Charging the battery
Before the first use, start by fully charging the battery. It
must be charged between 0 and 45°C. The instrument is
designed so that it can operate with the charger
connected.
The charger unit of the instrument comprises two
elements: a power supply and a charger. The charger
simultaneously manages the charging current, the battery
voltage, and the battery's internal temperature. This
optimizes charging while ensuring long battery life.
Display, in each mode, of the
5 charge levels of the battery
Before using your
instrument, check
its charge level:
there is an indicator
on the screen

If the LED of the charger is orange and it blinks

no battery or battery being charged.
The LED lights green at the end of charging.

If the battery level indicator displays fewer than three bars, start charging the instrument.
Charging takes about five hours. After prolonged storage, the battery may be completely
discharged. In this case, the first charge may take longer. If the instrument is likely not to
be used for more than two months, remove the battery. To maintain its capacity, recharge
it every 4 to 6 months.
In order to extend
the life
of the battery

Use only the charger provided with your instrument. Using another charger may be
dangerous!

Charge your instrument only between 0 and 45°C.

Observe the conditions of use and of storage stated in this data sheet.

If a prolonged period of non-use of the oscilloscope is anticipated, remove the battery and
store it at close to room temperature.

P01 label

The charger is common to several Chauvin Arnoux group measuring instruments; the label
of the PA40W-2 power supply bears the CHAUVIN ARNOUX logo.

This PA40W-2 charger is compatible with the ScopiX . A set of labels is provided, should
you wish to "personalize" the accessories of the ScopiX .
The spent batteries must not be treated as household wastes. Take them to the
appropriate collection point for recycling.
