Low battery signal:
~3.3 VDC ± 0.1VDC. (Red light winking 1/sec.) ~12 Hrs. of service left.
Notes:
The low battery cut-out feature provides a known state of action if the batteries are depleted to the point
of inadequate power to operate the unit to any of the declared specifications. In addition, this feature
was found to be prudent because, while many of the specifications may stay intact, false triggering of
the valve may confuse the operator of a problem other than low batteries. The minimum ‘start-up’ volt-
age is where the unit will initiate the built-in test and commence operations. However, it should be noted
that, during this operation, if the batteries are then measured to be too low the lock-up feature may then
shortly ensue. This should help the operator in determining if the unit is bad or if the batteries are too
low. A unit that has low batteries that cause ‘lock-up’ will most likely initially start-up if left off for some
time. Alkaline type batteries have so-called self-rejuvenating properties that may cause the user to stall
battery replacement. Obviously, dead batteries will yield no action.
