AC Power Connection
The External DC Power Supply should only be connected to a grounded AC supply outlet. The supplied External DC Power Supply
operates over a voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz. For AC operation, the AC Line Cable, connected to the External DC
Power Supply, is equipped with a standard three-prong plug and must be connected to a properly grounded three-prong receptacle.
DO NOT USE A THREE-PRONG TO TWO-PRONG ADAPTER PLUG. DOING SO CREATES A SHOCK HAZARD
BETWEEN THE CHASSIS AND ELECTRICAL GROUND.
DUE TO POTENTIAL FOR ELECTRICAL SHOCK W ITHIN THE DIGITAL RADIO TEST SYSTEM, THE CASE
ASSEMBLY MUST BE CLOSED W HEN THE DIGITAL RADIO TEST SYSTEM IS CONNECTED TO AN EXTERNAL
POW ER SOURCE.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT, FUSE REPLACEMENT AND INTERNAL ADJUSTMENTS MUST ONLY BE
PERFORMED W ITH THE DIGITAL RADIO TEST SYSTEM DISCONNECTED FROM EXTERNAL POW ER
SOURCES.
Battery
The Digital Radio Test System is powered by an internal Lithium Ion battery pack. The Digital Radio Test System is supplied with an
External DC Power Supply which allows the operator to recharge the battery using AC power. The Digital Radio Test System can
operate continuously on AC power via the External DC Power Supply, for servicing and/or bench tests. The internal battery is
equipped to power the Digital Radio Test System for 2.5 hours of continuous use, after which time, the Digital Radio Test System
battery needs recharging. W hen the BAT Indicator is GREEN, the battery is at 100% full charge. W hen the BAT Indicator is AMBER,
the battery is charging. If the battery level is ≤5% (BAT Icon), a "Low Battery" warning message is displayed. The battery charger
operates whenever the supplied External DC Power Supply or a suitable (11 to 24 Vdc) DC Power source is applied to the Digital
Radio Test System. W hen charging, the battery reaches a 100% charge in approximately four hours. The internal battery charger
allows the battery to charge between a battery temperature range of 0° to 45°C. The battery should be charged every three months
(minimum) or disconnected for long term inactive storage periods of more than six months. The battery must be removed when
conditions surrounding the Digital Radio Test System are <-20°C or >60°C. Allow 20 minutes for the battery to charge when turning
the Digital Radio Test System ON from a dead battery condition.
