Manual and
automatic switch-off
To turn the device off, briefly press the on/off button again. If a standby time is specified in
the device settings (see section 7.1), the device is not completely turned off but switched
to standby mode (applicable only to mobile units). In this mode, both the GSM and GPS
reception as well as the synchronicity of the internal oscillator remain functional. This has
the advantage that the mobile unit is ready immediately after pressing the on/off button
again.
To completely turn off the mobile unit before the time expires, press the
Switch off
immediately button.
If no standby time is set, however, or if this device is configured as base station, then it is
switched off immediately after the on/off button is pressed.
Hardware reset If the device stalls during operation or exhibits obvious malfunctions, the on/off
button
can be used to reset the hardware. To do this, keep the button pressed for at
least 10 seconds. Then wait another 10 seconds before briefly pressing the button to
switch the device on again.
This type of reset also resets the clock and the battery indicator. While the clock
automatically corrects itself when a GPS signal is received, the battery indicator is only
synchronised after the next charging of the battery.
5.2 Mains and Battery Operation
Mains operation The PVS 100i can be operated with an external power supply (115 V / 230 V AC). To do
this, the mains supply socket must be connected to the mains using the power cable
supplied.
Battery operation In contrast to the base station, a mobile unit must not necessarily be connected to mains
supply. It may be operated from a built-in, maintenance-free lithium ion battery. Under
normal conditions this will give up to 10 hours of operation.
The battery status indicator shows the remaining battery capacity when the device is
switched on.
Charging the battery The battery is charged automatically as soon as the PVS 100i is connected to mains
power via the mains supply socket . It takes roughly two hours to fully charge a
completely discharged battery. To prolong the battery life, it is advisable to completely
charge and discharge it at least twice a year.
The battery is protected from deep discharge, overcharging and overheating. The device
can remain connected to the mains even after the battery is fully charged. Trickle
charging then takes place.
