SPA Spectrum Analyzer
internal battery
The internal battery is a high capacity Lithium-ion polymer 1000mAh. This is the same battery technology
used in cell phones and modern laptops and tablet computers.
The power switch is a
true hard switch
connecting the battery in ON position, fully isolating the battery in the
OFF position. As the battery is fully disconnected in the OFF position, you can keep your RF
Spectrum
analyzer
stored for months and the battery will keep the charge intact, as opposed to cell phones or laptops
which typically implement a
soft switch
which slowly discharge the battery by drawing a microamperes
continuously from it. This doesn't happen in your
LATNEX hand-held RF analyzer device
.
Note there is actually a self-discharge effect in the battery but it is so negligible that you can store your
device for a year or more and a battery will not be depleted.
Charging the internal battery
To charge the internal battery, plug it in to a powered USB port or USB wall-wart charger via the USB mini
socket. For the internal charger to access the battery, you must set the power switch to ON position,
otherwise the device will be running from USB but will not use or charge the internal battery.
The RF signal analyzer
may draw up to 500mA according to USB standard, and may take up to 3hs max to
charge a fully discharged battery in normal conditions. We recommend the first time to be charged for up to
8hs.
IMPORTANT
Never charge your device unattended or in any place where there is a risk of fire.
Never store
the SPA Spectrum Analyzer
in a place where temperature may go
beyond 50ºC (122F).
A car can heat up incredibly quickly in the
sun
, especially in the summer, and
damage or reduce the lifetime of your battery if stored in such an environment.
If your battery doesn't seem to hold a charge or work properly, or if the unit gets
hot when charging, switch the power button OFF immediately and review and/or
replace your battery.
Never use
any of the LATNEX Spectrum Analyzer
models
with a damaged battery or
with a Lithium Ion battery different than the one officially supplied by technical
service, which includes a
protection circuit for safety. Contact
if you have any
question on
any matter related with your battery or if you need a replacement.
