When the battery is flat, you will hear an acoustic indication and the screen will
show the message "BATTERY LOW". Afterwards, if the battery is not charging yet, it
will show the message "VERY LOW BATTERY" and it will emit a warning acoustic
indication. If it is not immediately connected to the mains, the instrument will
automatically switch off.
3.1.3 Battery Charging
To fully charge the battery with the SATHUNTER switched off, connect the mains
adapter to the external power supply input
adapter to the mains. The charging process will start automatically. The instrument will
emit an acoustic indication and the display will show the battery voltage level, the
charge percentage and for how long the battery has been charging.
When charging is completed, the instrument is automatically disconnected from
the mains and it will emit two acoustic indications. At the same time the display will
show how long the battery has been charging.
The charging time depends on the state of the battery. If the battery is completely
flat, the charging process will take around 100 minutes. When the battery is fully
charged, the instrument will disconnect automatically. The charging process must be
carry out in a range of temperatures between 5 °C and 40 °C.
At starting the battery charging process and using the instrument for a long
period of time, it could be observed a heating of the instrument. This heating is
normal in the power margin that must be dissipated, according to the battery
charge status and the LNB consumption.
If the equipment is operating and the voltage adapter is connected, the charging
process will be longer. It will depend on the consumption.
