Installing the Batteries
RemoteVision uses two “AA” Alkaline batteries located in the rear of the unit.
Most alternative batteries are also suitable though some types may have
magnetic properties that adversely affect compass accuracy. During battery
replacement, individual user settings are stored in non-volatile memory to prevent
loss of data.
It is recommended that the internal fluxgate compass is always re-swung after
battery replacement, to correct for possible magnetic differences between types
of battery. Refer to the Setup section of this user manual for further details.
Battery Replacement:
1. Using a coin, rotate the battery compartment screw ¼ turn anti-clockwise
until the slot aligns with the open padlock symbol, remove the battery cover
and the old batteries.
2. Insert new batteries observing the correct polarity and direction by referring
to the symbols moulded into the battery compartment housing.
3. Check that the battery compartment seal is clean and undamaged.
4. Replace the battery compartment cover and lock into place by rotating the
battery compartment screw ¼ turn clockwise until the slot aligns with the
closed padlock symbol.
Notes on battery life and replacement:
Use only new or fully recharged batteries
Do not mix different types of battery.
Generally, fresh alkaline batteries will have more power and capacity when
compared to rechargeable batteries.
Significant use of the backlighting and torch will considerably reduce the
battery life.
It is recommended that the batteries are removed from the RemoteVision if
it is not going to be used for an extended period.
