Replacing the alkaline battery
A 9-volt alkaline battery may be used
in the PTC-960L, but for optimal per-
formance, Telxon recommends using
a rechargeable nickel-cadmium
battery pack.
If your PTC contains a 9-volt alkaline battery, it is
held in place by a foam block and connected to the
PTC via a 9-volt battery cable.
