The X12+ Transmitter is powered with a single AA alkaline battery that requires a minimum of 1.0 Volts to operate.
When the battery contains sufficient voltage the X12+ LCD Main Menu will display a picture representing the
current battery voltage in increments of 100%, 75%, 50% and 25%. If a battery with unknown voltage is inserted
and the LCD menu does not appear, insert a new battery.

Insert a new AA alkaline battery to continue operation.
When the battery indicator shows a voltage of 25%, the battery should be discarded and a new battery
should be inserted into the battery compartment.
