6.1 Charging A Spare Rechargeable Battery
(Optional Charger Stand Only)
A rechargeable Li-ion battery can be charged when it is not inside the
monitor. The Charger Stand is designed to accommodate both types
of charging. Contacts on the bottom of the battery meet the contacts
on the Charger Stand, transferring power without other connections,
and a spring-loaded capture holds the battery in place during
charging.
1. Plug the AC/DC adapter into the Charger Stand.
2. Place the battery into the Charger Stand, with the gold-plated
contacts on top of the six matching charging pins.
3. Plug the AC/DC adapter into the wall outlet.
The battery begins charging automatically. During charging, the

If you need to replace the Li-ion battery pack, replacements are
available from RAE Systems. The part number is 059-3051-000.
