10. Replacing the absolute battery
The absolute battery will wear down and must be replaced as needed. For example, replace the battery
when its service life has expired or when problems with backing up data occur even when the battery
charge time was long enough.
Though battery wear depends on the number of charges and the ambient temperature, the battery
should generally be replaced one and a half years after being connected to the controller.
Always charge the new battery after it is installed.
The battery is automatically charged when power is supplied to the controller. Keep power supplied for
a time longer than necessary for charging by referring to the table below.
