buttons for
at least 6 seconds

Attaching a Paper Photo ID
1. Ensure that the photo ID paper
label is trimmed so that it lies
flatly (picture/text side up) in
the recessed area on the front
of the badge.
2. Peel off the protective
layer on the front and
rear of the label cover
(P/T: 5-PBA90004).
3. Finally, remove the label cover’s adhesive backing and carefully
place it (adhesive edge down) onto the badge so that it neatly
holds the paper label correctly in place.
Battery Replacement
1. Temporarily disable the Badge in the Eiris software.
2. Place the badge back cover side up on a clear dry level surface.
Using a Phillips-type screwdriver that fits the battery cover
screws, unscrew the 4 screws that holds the battery cover in
place.
3. Separate the battery cover from the back of the badge by
inserting a small screw driver into either of the square slots
adjacent to the battery cover. Gently lever the screw driver
outwards until the battery cover releases from the badge.
4. Remove the worn-out battery from the badge and dispose of it
according to manufacturer’s instructions.
CAUTION! After removing the battery please wait at least 30 seconds
before installing the replacement battery so as to not cause damage to the tag
or to negatively affect the tag’s operational performance.
Caution! Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
5. Insert a new battery into the compartment, ensuring that that the
positive (+) side of the battery faces up.
6. Align the battery cover so that its flat edge fits correctly into the
badge’s back cover prior to seating the cover into place.
