Replacing the Battery
The battery must be replaced when its voltage is too low (battery Low or Low-
Low alarm). When the battery is disconnected for its replacement, the value of the
following parameters is saved:
•
Setup > Temperature Setup
•
Service > Sensor Param
•
View Readings > View History > View Sensor Card History
However, when the battery is removed, the value of the following parameters is
lost:
•
Setup > Alarms Setup
•
Setup > Date & Time
•
Setup > Comm Setup
•
Setup > History Setup
•
Setup > Relay Setup
•
Setup > I/O Setup
•
Alarms > Alarms History
•
View Readings > View History Data
To replace the battery, proceed as follows:
Note: Step 1 below can be skipped if the Hydran M2-X was never put in service
and if the Hydran M2-X
’s default parameter values have not been changed.
1.
Because some Hydran M2-X
’s parameters are lost (see above) when the battery
is disconnected, they must be recorded. There are two methods:
•
Use the Perception software. For connection details, see Chapter 5; for
details on the software, see the Perception
Manual
.
-
History files are transferred automatically as soon as the
communication is established between the Perception software and
the Hydran M2-X. The
Histo Download in Progress
... message remains
displayed in the Perception window during the transfer.
-
Manually note all parameters in the Hydran M2-X
’s Communication
submenu. These parameters are the only ones that cannot be
accessed from the Perception software.
•
If the Perception software cannot be used, manually note the values of all
Hydran M2-X
’s parameters. This method is more difficu
lt and can be source of
errors.
2.
Power off the Hydran M2-X.
3.
Remove the cover.
4.
Remove the two screws holding the cover of the electronic card cage.
