3.6.2 Battery Operation
The Adventurer Pro is capable of operating on battery power when AC power is not available.
Use 4 AA size batteries. If batteries are installed and AC power is not present, the balance
operation is affected as follows:
• The Power setting for COM 1 is set to OFF. If COM 1 operation is required, change Power
setting to ON in the RS232-1 menu.
• The LCD backlight is normally off to conserve power. The backlight turns on when the
display becomes unstable or when a button is pressed. The backlight turns off 5 seconds
after the display becomes stable or after 5 seconds with no button presses. The backlight
is always off if the Backlight menu setting is OFF.
• Auto Off is set to 5 minutes. If continuous operation is desired, change the Auto Off menu
setting to Off.
• The battery charge level is annunciated by means of a three segment battery symbol on the
display as follows:
Full charge
2/3 charge
1/3 charge
Replace batteries
