Data Carrier’s Life after
Generation of Battery Low
Signal Replace the Data Carrier with a new one as soon as possible when the bat-
tery low signal is turned ON, even though the Data Carrier can be used for
approximately one month after its battery low signal is turned ON.
Data Carrier with EEPROM
(With No Battery) By counting the number of overwriting operations, it is possible to check the
life of the Data Carrier’s EEPROM. The Data Carrier’s EEPROM allows a total
of 100,000 or a desired number of overwriting operations.
!WARNING
Do not throw the Data Carrier into fire or heat the Data Carrier to a tempera-
ture exceeding 100
°
C. Doing so may cause ignition or burning of the built-in
lithium battery.
!WARNING
Do not short the battery terminals or charge, disassemble, heat, or incinerate
the battery. Doing any of these may result in leakage, rupture, heat genera-
tion, or ignition of the battery.
Note The Data Carrier with SRAM incorporates a thionyl chloride lithium battery.
The internal resistance of the thionyl chloride lithium battery will rise if the bat-
tery is not used for several months, in which case, the Data Carrier will gener-
ate a battery low signal if a battery check is carried out (even if the battery is
not low). When using a Data Carrier that has not been used for over a month,
carry out some trial operations for approximately 10 minutes in order to re-
activate the battery. The trial operations will not significantly shorten the life of
the battery.
