Battery charger
This apparatus includes an intelligent built-in, state-of-the-art device that controls
battery charge and power supplied to the apparatus from the electric supply net-
work.
Battery Charge:
The following process has to be followed to charge the battery:
Check that the / SWITCH (ON) is OFF.
•
•
Connect the equipment to the electric supply network, thus connecting the corre-
sponding cable to the ' connector of the VOLTAGE INPUT.
After a few seconds, the = led of the BATTERY STATUS will light in red, indi-
•
cating in this way that the charge process has started. When the charge is com-
plete, the led will turn to green, remaining as such until the equipment is discon-
nected from the socket.
•
If, during this battery charge process the equipment is connected to start meas-
urements by activating the / switch, the charge process will be temporarily inter-
rupted. If the = led of the BATTERY STATUS is lit in red, lit, it will turn off and all
the charge will be used to feed the equipment. If the green led is lit in green it will
remain lit to show the battery is charged (though it ceases to charge it). Upon
completing measurements or when the apparatus is disconnected, the charge
process will automatically resume.
Note: The battery looses part of its charge when stored. Therefore, the battery should be
recharged before using the megohmmeter for the first time or after a given period without
being used.
