Optional Rechargeable battery information
The TI-700 may contain an optional rechargeable battery which is internal to the unit. Before us-
ing the indicator for the first time, please charge the battery overnight.
The indicator’s battery should operate for about 85 hours if left on continuously. The display unit
is configured to power down after 5 minutes of inactivity but this parameter can be changed thru
the A1-10 menu setting.
The battery can be charged while ON or OFF and the indicator can be operated while it’s charg-
ing unless the state of charge is very low.
WHEN TO CHARGE THE INTERNAL BATTERY
The best time to charge the Lithium Ion battery is any time the indicator is not in use. You need
not wait for the Low Battery Indication – in fact it’s best that you don’t. Charging the battery
when not in use keeps the battery “fresh” and is the recommended way to manage it.
When the battery needs to be charged, the Low Battery Indicator will start blinking in the lower
left-hand corner of the display. The indicator may be used for an additional 2 minutes before it
automatically powers down.
It is imperative that you charge the battery at this time to avoid
permanent damage.
