4.0 Maintenance and Trouble Shooting
This chapter explains how to clean optical ports and how to
charge the batteries in the OFL 100. Please use the sequence
of steps outlined in section 4.4 if there is a problem and you
wish to obtain technical support.
4.1 Repair And Calibration
Repair of this unit in the field is NOT recommended. If the unit
is not operating, turn the unit on while connected to the AC
supply. If the unit still will not operate, please contact the
Technical Support Department at Noyes Fiber Systems.
Calibration of the OFL 100 is recommended every 12 months.
Please contact Noyes Fiber Systems for proper calibration or
repair. Refer to section 5.3 for information on returning
equipment.
4.2 Battery Maintenance
The OFL 100 utilizes a sealed lead acid battery that is both
leak proof and overcharge protected. Proper care should be
exercised for maximum performance.
The OFL 100 is designed to be run continuously while
connected to the Noyes AC Power Adapter. The OFL 100 may
also be stored for long periods of time while connected to an
AC power supply. This feature insures that a battery will not be
taken into the field in a marginal charge state.
The OFL 100 will operate for approximately 4-6 hours from a
fully charged battery before a ‘LOW BATT’ indicator will flash in
the LCD. At this time, the AC adapter should be plugged back
in to recharge the battery. Recommended recharge time is a
minimum of 14 hours for HR, MM and LR models and 24 hours
for the DM and DS models.
The OFL 100 should be stored in a fully charged state. For
long term storage, recharging is recommended every 8 months.
Storage at room temperature or slightly below is also
recommended.
