TROUBLESHOOTING
The following information lists basic tests that can be performed to check the ALHV Series in the
event of poor performance.
Check Your Batteries: One of the most common causes of performance failures is due to defective
or incorrectly installed batteries. Check to see if any batteries are installed backwards and correct
if necessary.
• Never selectively replace batteries; always replace all of the batteries at the same time with
new batteries. Batteries should be checked with a voltmeter or battery tester to confirm
proper voltage.
• Leaky batteries may have damaged the battery contacts in the battery box.
• Check to see that the battery tray is screwed tightly onto the base of the instrument. Also,
the fit between the battery prongs and the batteries may need adjustment, as this fit may
vary over different brands of battery (especially Energizer™ brand, as they are larger in
diameter, preventing a proper connection).
• Alkaline batteries are recommended for the best performance and storage life.
Rechargeable batteries such as Nickel-Cadmium will provide performance, but are not as
desirable due to their lower terminal voltage. Low cost standard Carbon-Zinc batteries may
be used in emergencies, but they should be replaced with alkaline batteries when available.
