Xltek EMU40EX Battery Pack 

 

User Manual

 

 

 

 

USING THE EMU40EX HEADBOX WITH THE BATTERY 
PACK 

 

Connect Battery Pack (Fig.1) to EMU40EX Breakout Box using EMU40EX power cable (Fig.4). 

 

Green light

 

(“Battery”) will keep flashing as long as the battery is at least 20% full. 

 

When the Battery Pack is discharged to less than 20% of its capacity, flashing light “Battery” changes 
its color to 

RED

. This is a warning for you to complete the study or to change the power source in less 

than 1 hour. 

 

Even after the Battery Pack is discharged and all lights are off, there may still be some power available 
stored in the internal battery of the EMU40EX Breakout Box. 

USEFUL TIPS 

 

In order to check condition of the battery simply connect the EMU40EX Power Cable (Fig.4). There is 
no need to connect the headbox for this check. Three cases are possible: 
1. “Battery” LED is off 

the battery is completely discharged. 

2. “Battery” LED is flashing GREEN  the battery is more than 20% full. 
3. “Battery” LED is flashing RED 

the battery is less than 20% full. 

 

Please do not leave  EMU40EX Power Cable (Fig.4) plugged  if  you do  not  intend to use  the  Battery 
Pack for a long time. When the EMU40EX Power Cable is unplugged, the Battery Pack automatically 
enters low-power standby mode prolonging battery life. 

 

All lithium batteries are “perishable products”. Their life expectancy is limited to 500 charge-discharge 
cycles or 5 years due to chemical degradation of active electrodes. You may see very slow degradation 
of the lithium cell performance even if it is not used. 

 

Lithium battery will last much longer when using more 

shallow charge-discharge cycles

 rather than 

full-charge 

— full-discharge cycles.

 Battery life in charge-discharge cycles is specified for the latter 

(worst) case. Use fresh or fully charged batteries before beginning a study. 

 

If you are not going to use Battery Pack for a few weeks or longer, 

please pre-charge it approximately 

to 50~75%.

 This is optimal for long-term storage. Do not store a totally discharged battery as this may 

render the battery pack inoperable.  

 

Do  not  continuously  leave  the  battery  pack  charging.  Overcharged  cell  leads  to  faster  electrode 
degradation.  

 

If you need longer continuous operation two (or more) batteries can be used to prolong disconnected 
operation  of  EMU40EX  headbox.  This  is  limited  by  the  memory  storage  capacity  of  the  EMU40EX 
headbox.
