LED indicators on the power source circuit board
Two LED indicators are located on the power source
circuit board
When the green LED light marked „AC“ shines this indi-
cates the presence of alternating current voltage at the
input 230 V
When the green LED light marked „AKU“ shines, this indi-
cates that the power source is ready to charge the circuit
board of the REGGAE GT communicator from the accu-
mulator and also from the grid 230 VAC The LED light
„AKU“ shines even when the accumulator is not connec-
ted as long as alternating current power voltage 230 V is
connected The LED light „AKU“ does not indicate the sta-
tus of the accumulator Diagnosis of the state of the accu-
mulator is carried out and indicated on the circuit board
of the REGGAE GT communicator
During operation of the REGGAE GTbz/GTbzxxx commu-
nicator by the back-up accumulator, the LED light „AKU“
will shine when the accumulator is connected to the
power source circuit board of the REGGAE GT commu-
nicator If the circuit source disconnects the accumulator
due to its low open circuit voltage (< 8 9 V), the LED light
„AKU“ will turn off
Safety fuses
Two safety fuses are located on the power source circu-
it board Safety fuse T800mA serves to protect output
transformators at source in the case of serious violations
of the output circuit source
Safety fuse F1 6A protects the circuit source against the
reserval of poles on the accumulator It also protects the
accumulator in the case of serious violations of the out-
put circuit source
Operating time of REGGAE GT/GTbz/GTbzxxx com-
municators using the back-up accumulator
The table below shows the approximate times that RE-
GGAE GT, REGGAE GTbz, REGGAE GTbz232 a REGGAE
GTbz485 communicators are capable of operating for
when using back-up accumulators of various capacities
The times shown in the table are for standard operation
of the communicators (e g 10 telephone line communi-
cations daily with the AS including news sent on the ARC
channel GPRS) Operation of the communicator is expec-
ted up to a voltage of 9 V on the accumulators terminal
The operating times for new accumulators shown in the
table are valid when the capacity of the accumulator is
100 % of its voltage rating
The operating times shown for older accumulators are
valid when the capacity of the accumulator is 80 % of
its voltage rating Standard VRLA accumulators usually
reach a capacity of 80 % of voltage rating after approxi-
mately 2 years operation at room temperature (20 °C to
30 °C), according to information from the producers of
the accumulators
