17 INSTALLATION OF OPTIONS
17.1 FBA-38 ALKALINE BATTERY CASE
The optional
FBA-38
is a battery case that holds five “AAA” size Alkaline bat-
teries and is used with the
HX851E
transceiver. The Alkaline batteries can be
used for receiving and transmission in an emergency, and battery life will be
shortened dramatically. When the Alkaline batteries are used, we recommend
to reduce the Transmit Output Power to “
LOW
” to conserve battery life.
1. Slide the five “AAA” size Alkaline batteries into the
FBA-38
with the Nega-
tive (
–
) side of the batteries touching the spring connections inside the
FBA-38
.
2. Insert the
FBA-38
into the battery rest on the bottom of the transceiver,
and then turn the Battery Pack Lock to the “
LOCK
” position with a coin.
NOTE
When the
FBA-38
Alkaline Battery Case is used, the
HX851E
is not
able to transmit using 6 W power output.
