Battery Pack— 422 AC-DC
signal applied, INTENSITY control setting and other factors.
If the batteries do not provide the normal operating time,
first completely charge the batteries for the recommended
16-hour charge period. If possible, charge the battery pack
in an ambient temperature between + 1 5° C and +2 5° C.
This allows the battery pack to attain its maximum charge
and also will minimize the chances that the battery pack
protection thermal cutout will open because of excess tem
perature. Measure the potential across the interconnecting
banana jacks of the power pack. A fully charged battery
pack should measure about 24 volts. If the battery pack
measures below 22 volts, either the battery charger circuit
is inoperative or the battery pack is defective. The battery
charger circuit can be checked for operation using the Cali
bration procedure in the manual. If the battery charger is
working correctly and the voltage reads low, the battery
pack is probably defective.
If the battery pack measures about 24 volts but the
POWER light begins to blink too soon when operating from
the batteries, either the battery pack has lost its charge
retaining capacity or the low-batteries indicator circuit is
defective. First be sure that the batteries have been charged
properly for the recommended charge period. Then, operate
the instrument from the batteries until the POWER light begins
to blink. Now, measure the potential across the battery
pack interconnecting terminals. If it is below about 22 volts,
the battery pack has lost its charge retention capacity. If
the voltage is above about 22 volts, the low-batteries indi
cator may be at fault.
If the battery pack is found to be defective, the entire bat
tery pack should be returned to Tektronix, Inc. for mainte
nance. Contact your local Tektronix Field Office or repre
sentative for assistance. The battery pack should be regarded
as a single power storage unit rather than as a set of indi
vidual cells. It is not designed to be disassembled for in
spection or repair. Refer all maintenance on the battery
pack itself to Tektronix, Inc.
CAUTION
The w arranty on this instrument may be altered
if the sealed case-retaining screws of the battery
pack are removed.

The battery pack used in the AC-DC Power Supply can be
stored in a charged or a partially charged condition. For
best shelf life when storing the battery pack for long peri
ods of time, fully recharge the battery pack about every
three months. Although the battery pack is fully charged
when shipped from Tektronix, Inc., recharge the battery pack
completely before operating the instrument.
Charge retention characteristics of Nickel-Cadmium bat
teries vary with the storage temperature and humidity. The
battery pack may be stored at ambient temperatures between
—40° C and + 6 0 ° C without damage, either in the instru
ment or as a separate unit. However, the self-discharge rate
increases with ambient temperature.
For example, cells
stored at + 2 0 ° C will lose about 50% of their stored charge
in three months but when stored at + 5 0 ° C, they will be
almost completely self-discharged in only one month. High
humidity also increases the rate of self-discharge. If the
instrument must be stored at either high ambient temperature
or high humidity for an extended period of time, it is recom
mended that the battery pack be continuously trickle charged
(charge battery pack completely at full-charge rate before
extended trickle charge).
