To install a battery pack:
(1)
Remove the battery housing from the gauge.
(2)
Connect the battery pack to the gauge. The battery pack has only one way of alignment with
the gauge connector so as to minimize potential damage. Align the lug on the battery pack
with the slot on the gauge connector.
You may consider installing batteries in both gauges (one set) at the
same time, as you need to try and to initiate both gauges at once (this
process will avoid the process of synchronizing the files when they are
retrieved from the tools), and then write down the date and time the
batteries were plugged to the gauges into the Gauges Control Sheet
(PPS25.xls).

Document all information for each well in Gauge Control Sheet (PPS25.xls). The exact date
and time when the batteries were connected to each gauge must be documented.
