22.2.1 Differences between main unit’s internal battery and the optional battery
Although the optional battery (FX

-32BL) serves as the same as the main unit’s internal battery, they differ in
the ways described below.
They may also have different external colors based on the time of manufacture.

When the battery voltage is low, a "BATT" LED is lit (red) while the power is ON, and M8005 and M8006 are
switches ON.
Although the battery will continue to function for approximately 1 month after the "BATT" LED switches ON, a
replacement battery should be ordered and installed as soon as possible.
