Trustworthy Backup Function

If, after the battery warning display appears, the battery power goes even lower 
the unit will automatically go into sleep mode. Although, in sleep mode, the unit 
cannot be operated and power cannot be turned on, all data will be safely stored 
without loss.

Note

 

If after going into sleep mode, the battery is not changed for about 

1

 month (for 

Ni-Cd (Nickel-Cadmium) batteries 

1

 day), or if the battery is left out of the main 

unit for more than 

2

 minutes, all data will be lost.

Over 

100

 Hours on

 Alkaline Batteries

The RTR-

57

U takes advantage of our exclusive circuitry design to bring over 

100

 

operating hours worth of power on only 

2

 AAA alkaline batteries. Energy efficiency 

is further enhanced with our Auto Power Off Function.

Note

Battery Life varies according to type of battery, measuring environment, 

transmission frequency, and ambient temperature. This estimate of battery life 
was based on normal use under normal conditions using a new batteries. This is 
in no way or manner a guarantee of battery life.

Auto Power Off Function

To save battery energy the main unit will automatically be turned off when not in 
use for 

3

 minutes. 

Backlit Display for Viewing in Dark Places

The RTR-

57

U comes equipped with a backlit display for easy viewing even in hard 

to see places.  The light can be switched ON/OFF in the main menu. If set to be 
ON, it will light up when operation begins and automatically turn off when 
operation stops for a few seconds, saving battery energy.

Note

ON.
