Use in low temperatures
The CP 540 is able to print on temperatures as low as -25°C!
Whenever possible, use the external power supply to extend battery life.
We recommend you consider purchasing one of the Docking Station for extended autonomy in
situations when AC power is unavailable.
The autonomy of the Docking BATT will allow you to print 30’000 times at 20°C and at least 10’000
times at -20°C (GPS = OFF and LCD back light at 0)
WARNING
Pay attention to the autonomy of the batteries and of the paper roll if you have to
print any times
It is recommended to set the back light of the LCD at 0 for a longer autonomy.
IMPORTANT
It is strongly recommended that you remove the battery if you are not using your
Chronoprinter 540.
If using the Docking station « HL540-BATT ». You have the possibility to extend the autonomy.
