WARNING
The 4320 power module contains two primary lithiumthionyl chloride batteries. Under normal conditions of use, the
battery materials are selfcontained and are not reactive as long as the batteries and power module integrity are
maintained. Care should be taken to prevent mechanical, electrical, or thermal damage. DO NOT recharge, short-circuit,
disassemble, heat, or expose the power module to water. The batteries contain flammable materials and performing any of
the above actions could cause them to become damaged, ignite, or explode, resulting in personal injury or property
damage. Observe all warnings included with the power module before installing, operating, storing, or shipping the 4320.
Personal injury and property damage can result from fire or explosion if the power module is subjected to heat above
100

CAUTION
When installing components, proper means of electrostatic discharge protection is required. Failure to use a grounding
strap, or other means of electrostatic discharge protection can result in damage to the electronics.
WARNING
To avoid static discharge do not rub or clean the antenna with solvents.
The 4320 has two available power sources; a battery-sourced power module, or an external power source.
Note
A 4320 powered by a battery-sourced power module cannot be converted to a 4320 powered by an external power source. The
housing and electronics are not the same for a 4320 powered by a battery-sourced power module and a 4320 powered by an
external power source.
