Unpacking, Inspecting the Delivery, Installing, and Changing the
Battery
Unpacking
The SICAM Q100 has been safely packed for transport in the factory. Unpack the device with care and do not
use force. Use an appropriate tool if necessary. After unpacking, inspect the device visually for any mechanical
defects.
Observe any additional notes enclosed with the packaging.
Keep the transport packaging for future transport.
Inspecting the Delivery
After unpacking, first compare the packing list against your original purchase order to check that the delivered
device has the desired rated data and functions and that all necessary and ordered accessories are enclosed.
Installing the Battery
If you want to operate the device immediately after the delivery, first insert the battery before beginning the in-
stallation. Upon delivery the battery is insulated in the battery compartment of the device.
If you want to operate the device later, insert the battery only just before you intend to use the device.
To insert the battery, observe the notes in the supplied Product Information and proceed as follows:
✧
Lever the cover of the battery compartment out of the socket with a suitable tool (for example precision
engineer screwdriver 2.0 mm).

NOTE
If the device has been damaged during transport, do not connect and operate it.
NOTE
The battery powers the battery-buffered memory (SRAM) and the real-time clock (RTC). But the device can
still be operated when no battery is inserted or when the battery is discharged. If, however, the supply voltage
is lost, all metered energy values and error reports are deleted and the real-time clock is reset
(2000-01-01 00:00).
Customer-specific parameters are permanently stored in the Flash-EPROM even without a battery.
