3. INSTALLATION
3.1 Power Supply
The SATHUNTER is a portable instrument powered by a lithium rechargeable
battery. The instrument comes with a mains adapter in order to connect it to the mains
for operation and battery charging.
3.1.1 Operation using the Mains Adapter
Connect the mains adapter to the SATHUNTER using the external power
connector [4] (see Figure 6.-) located on the right side panel. Connect the
adapter to the mains and it will automatically start the battery charging process. The
equipment will emit an acoustic indication. It will also display information about the
battery charging (see “
3.1.3 Battery Charging” ) on the screen. When the battery is
already charged, the instrument will automatically disconnect. To stop the charging
process, press any of the three keys [1], [2] or [3], for more than 2 s (the
battery-charging screen will disappear).
To start operation, keep any of the three instrument keys ( [1], [2] or
[3]) pressing down for more than 1 s. The instrument will start up. The battery charging
process will stop until the equipment starts up. The charging process will be slower
