sure the JP3 jumper is not installed and change the Speaker/Battery setting
to ALKALINE. Recharging regular alkaline batteries can cause severe
damage to the TriCoder.
If using rechargeable NiCad or NiMH batteries, be sure to reset
Speaker/Batteries from 02 to 03; otherwise, the TriCoder will not know
when to tell you to change batteries and it will fail in very strange ways. See
Chapter 6 : TriCoder Setup - Speaker Battery settings.
The second battery is a lithium battery, used for backup of the data in
memory and updating of the real-time clock. The battery model is CR2032
3v and is available wherever you can buy watch or camera batteries. This
battery should last for approximately 6 months, even if the AA batteries are
removed. Even though the lithium backup battery can last for at least 6
months, we recommend not keeping valuable data in the TriCoder any
longer than necessary. Upload your data to the computer – do not risk
losing data if you don’t have to. Once you have uploaded, back up your
data file on a diskette or tape if the information is extremely critical.
The TriCoder can detect low AA batteries as well as a low lithium battery. If
the TriCoder detects low AA batteries, it displays the following message for
20 seconds, then turns itself off to protect any data that may be in memory:

UNIT SHUT DOWN_
The TriCoder also has a battery life indicator that can be accessed in NON
PORTABLE mode or during Data Collection. To display the remaining
battery life of both the AA and the lithium battery (as well as the date, time
and remaining memory) press the
STATUS key:

Press the STATUS key again resume processing.
To change the AA batteries:
1.
Turn OFF the TriCoder and unplug the 5-volt power adapter.
2. Remove the battery holder door on the back of the TriCoder by pressing
down on the grooved portion of the door and pushing outward.
3. Remove the old batteries and insert the new ones, making sure to
orient the batteries according to the diagram inside the battery
holder. The positive (+) end of the battery should be facing down
toward the bottom of the TriCoder.
4. If using rechargeable batteries and the TriCoder's built-in recharging
circuitry, make sure the jumper labeled JP3 is configured correctly.
