Battery Information 

 
 
 
 
 

Battery Lifespan—TX104 has very low current consumption. It is recommended that the battery 
should be replaced once a year and sooner if the TX104 has been activated for more than 
occasional testing. When the TX104 is in TRANSMIT mode, a new battery will last 
approximately 24 hours.  
 
Use the following steps to test the battery strength: 

1.

 

Activate the unit using option 1 or 2 in Operating Instructions. 

2.

 

As soon as the distress marker light begins to flash rapidly, remove antenna tip / embedded 
magnet.  

3.

 

Once more, align antenna tip / embedded magnet with the manual activation/deactivation 
recess. 

4.

 

If the light turns on and remains on solid for approximately 5 seconds, the battery is 
useable. If the light flashes on and off for 5 seconds, the battery is not useable and must be 
replaced. 

 
Use the following steps to replace battery: 

1.

 

Using a #1 size Phillips head screwdriver, unscrew the crosshead screw on the battery 
door. See figure 6 on following page. 

2.

 

Remove battery door. 

3.

 

Remove used battery. 

4.

 

Insert new 3 volt CR123 lithium battery according to polarity diagram on the inside of the 
battery door. See figure 7 on following page.

 

5.

 

Replace battery door.  Grasping screwdriver with thumb and forefinger, screw down the 
battery door to 45 in/oz. 

Caution: Do not over tighten!
