6.3 Recharging the Power Unit
The rechargeable power unit [an instrument
option], when fully charged, should provide
enough power
for at least
five hundred tests.
Charge the system when this low power warning message appears,
as there is enough power for only about twenty more complete breath
test procedures. The power unit can be recharged from either the
mains or 12 volts DC, using the appropriate charger as supplied.
This connects to the instrument via the small port on the lower-left
side. Make sure that the instrument is switched
ON
for charging, so
that the charge status icon is displayed. This scrolls during the actual
recharging process.
A fully discharged power unit will take around 60 minutes to recharge,
at which time the icon stops scrolling.
