Transmitter Battery Service

The NiMH batteries supplied with the handheld transmitter
are capable of several hundred charge/discharge cycles and
a long service life when properly maintained.
The transmitter batteries will have a slight charge when
shipped from the factory. Before using the remote system
for the first time, charge the batteries 8 hours. 
The battery charger provided in the CMR-KIT kit supplies 
a dual-rate charge cycle that will initially bring the batteries 
to full capacity at a high rate, then switch automatically 
to a trickle charge to maintain the batteries at peak capacity.
The batteries can be charged indefinitely without risk of
overcharging with the provided charger.
The battery symbol on the transmitter display indicates 
the current charge state of the batteries. 
The display symbol will change to indicate the following
battery charge conditions:

Full-

Half-

Minimum-

Charging the Batteries

1 – Plug the battery charger into a 110 VAC outlet.
2 – Lift the end of the rubber cover located on the bottom

of the transmitter to access the charger receptacle.

3 – Insert the charger plug into the transmitter receptacle.

See Figure 4.

The length of time required to recharge the batteries

to full capacity will vary and is determined by the state
of discharge. 

4 – When charging is complete, remove the charger plug

and close the rubber cover. 

T

he transmitter can be turned on or off while

charging the batteries. When the transmitter is on,
the battery symbol flashes to indicate charging.
