Battery Charging

To fully charge the battery, connect the instrument to the external DC charger
without activating the power on process. The length of time it takes to recharge it
depends on the condition of the battery. If they are very low the recharging period is
about 5 hours. The CHARGER [4] indicator should remain lit.
When the battery charging process is completed with the instrument off, the fan
stops.
The instrument battery needs to be kept charged between 30% and 50% of its
capacity when not in use. The battery needs to be fully charged for best results. A
fully charged battery undergoes temperature-related discharge. For example, at a
°
room temperature of 20 C, it can lose up to 10% of its charge over 12 months.

Installation and Start-up

The US TV EXPLORER II level meter is designed for use as a portable device,
therefore does not require installation.
When the rotary selector [1] is pressed for more than two seconds, the instrument
is started up in the automatic power-off mode; that is, the device is automatically
disconnected after the selected minutes if no key has been pressed. When the device is
operating, it is also possible to select the auto power-off mode by means of the
Preferences menu [22] and to select the time out until the automatic power-off.
