The Battery Life Dialog Box—Entering the Battery Pack Capacity Sample Rate and Average Times
4. If you want to enter the battery pack capacity directly, enter it in percent in the Battery Ca-
pacity scroll box in the Battery Properties area of the Battery Life dialog box. Or click the up
or down arrow in the scroll box to enter the capacity. Otherwise, if the instrument is con-
nected, you can allow CTDPro to measure and enter the capacity automatically.
CAUTION. Do not
enter the measured current drawn from an external power supply in the
CTD Current text box. The entry in the CTD Current text box is the average current drawn
from an installed battery pack only.
NOTE.
The entry in the CTD Current text box normally should not be changed as this value is
factory measured. However, if the CTD-N is supplying power to optional external sensors,
the entered value should be changed to 32mA plus any 3
rd
party sensors. If a 0% shows up in
the battery capacity, it is not automatically recognizing the battery, this could mean the
battery is not connected.
5. If you want to change the measured current drawn by the instrument, enter the current in
mA in the CTD Current text box.
6. In the Sample Rate area, select the desired sampling rate in hertz of the instrument from
the drop-down list box.
