Low Battery Indication
¦
As your battery discharges during use, the voltage will
gradually become lower. When the “
” icon will
blink on the LCD display, the battery pack must be
recharged before further use.
¦
Avoid recharging Li-Ion batteries before the “Low Bat-
tery” indicator is observed, as this can degrade the
charge capacity of your Li-Ion battery pack. Vertex
Standard recommends that you carry an extra, fully-
charged pack with you so you will not lose communi-
cations capability due to a depleted Li-Ion battery.
This “deep cycling” practice will help to maintain
longer overall battery life after many recharging cycles.
AC Operation Using
NC-72B/C
(Receiving only)
The
VXA-700
may be operated from your house current
by use of the supplied
NC-72B/C
Battery Charger. The
NC-72B/C
should only be used for reception, because it
is not capable of supplying sufficient current to support
transmission.
To use the
NC-72B/C
, turn the transceiver off, then plug
the miniature connector of the Battery Charger into the
EXT DC
jack on the side of the radio. Now plug the Bat-
tery Charger into the wall outlet. You may now turn on the
transceiver.
