OPERATE.
THIS WILL NORMALLY OCCUR ONLY IF
THE UNIT IS TURNED OFF, OR AFTER THE
INTERNAL STANDBY BATTERY IS
EXHAUSTED.
CAUTION
THE INDICATOR MAY BE DAMAGED IF THE
“PULL TO CAGE” KNOB IS RELEASED
WITH A “SNAP”. SLOWLY RELEASE THE
“PULL TO CAGE” KNOB AVOIDING A
“SNAP” RELEASE.
When the instrument switches to standby battery power, the amber
STBY PWR light on the lower left flashes for approximately one
minute. This is intended to attract the pilot’s attention and allow
confirmation that there has been a loss of primary power to the 4300
Electric Attitude Indicator. Pushing the STBY PWR button on the face
of the instrument will allow the unit to continue operating on the
standby battery for approximately one (1) hour or until the battery is
exhausted. An independent standby dial lighting system also operates
in this mode. The red gyro warning flag remains out of view, which
indicates the gyroscope is valid and running on standby battery power.
Restoring aircraft power will clear any standby operation and resume
automatic battery charging.
The battery can be tested during preflight or enroute during normal,
level flight conditions by pushing and holding the small button on the
face of the instrument. After about one minute, either the "Green Test"
light will appear, which means the battery is good; or the "Red Test"
light will appear, which means the battery needs recharging or
replacement.
Mid-Continent recommends battery replacement after three (3) years of
use. Regular maintenance of the Standby Battery should be done at the
following intervals:
1. In normal use the 4300-4XX Attitude Indicator supplies the
proper float charge voltage to maintain the Standby Battery at
peak capacity. If the 4300-4XX has not been operated for an
extended period (more than 3 months) the Standby Battery
will slowly self-discharge. Self-discharge rates are directly
related to the storage temperature. The higher the storage
temperature the faster the self-discharge rate. Therefore, the
Standby Battery should be periodically charged or removed
