Battery Installation
The battery should first be placed into the PathAlign-R’s battery compartment through the
battery rear panel door, and the door secured with the thumb screw. When inserting the battery
into its compartment, orient the battery so that the positive terminal is up and the end with the
terminals is inserted first (note: the battery cannot be fully inserted into its compartment if it is
incorrectly oriented). The PathAlign-R can now be placed into the Weather-resistant Instrument
Back-pack. The battery may be changed out or recharged while it is in the backpack by opening
the flap at the bottom of the bag and plugging the Battery Charger’s DC plug into the ’External
Charger In’ jack located on the PathAlign-R’s rear panel. Connect the Charger’s IEC 320
connector to the AC line cord, the other end being connected to an appropriate AC source.
NOTE:
The battery must be charged before first use!
