Depending on the destination country, a data logger may or may not have
factory-installed Li-SOCl
₂
D cell batteries. If it has factory-installed batteries, you
have to remove the insulating pull tabs which prevents the batteries from
energizing during shipping and storage.
The data logger has three battery compartments labelled as A, B and C. The
data logger detects batteries in the compartments and uses the first available
battery in the sequence. The data logger continuously monitors battery
consumption over time, disables the depleted battery and enables the next
available battery in the sequence.
