Battery installation
The Patroller is powered by a rechargeable battery pack located in the back of
the unit. To install the battery pack, use a screwdriver to undo the two panel
screws a quarter turn.
Remove the panel, insert the battery pack and clip the battery and Patroller
connectors together. Ensure the leads do not become trapped when
replacing the panel. Refit the panel and tighten the screws.
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW ANY METAL OBJECT TO CONNECT THE
TWO BATTERY TERMINALS ON THE CONNECTOR. This would cause a
short circuit and would rapidly generate intense heat in these special
batteries.
Checking Battery voltage
To check battery voltage, switch on the Patroller, then press ESC to access
the main menu. Select Setup, then System Info to display battery voltage.
Nominal battery voltage is 7.2V. When the battery voltage drops to 6.5V the
Patroller will start to issue low battery warnings. When the voltage drops to
6.0V the unit will power off automatically and can not be used until the battery
is recharged, or an external power supply is connected. Even when the
Patroller is powered off, the data is preserved.
In the event of a battery failure, the data stored in the Patroller is maintained
by a small backup battery for up to one year.
