Setting Up
Supplying Power to the SidePak
™
Aerosol Monitor
Attach the rechargeable battery pack to the AM520/AM520i. Initially
the Lithium Ion rechargeable battery pack will need to be plugged into
the AC adapter (power supply) and plugged into a mains power outlet
before use.
This will “wake up” the battery from storage mode. The
battery can power the AM520/AM520i by itself or in conjunction with
the TSI
®
AC adapter.
The SidePak
™
monitor also contains a miniature coin cell for
powering a Real-Time Clock. Changing the battery pack or
disconnecting the power supply will not cause data to be lost. Flash
memory retains the data. The coin cell will last for many years. TSI
®
will install a new coin cell, if necessary, when the unit is returned for
service. The coin cell is not user-serviceable.
