Preparations
Important
The life of the backup battery is about two years. To be on the
safe side, you should replace the battery every 1 to 1-1/2
years.
When the battery is removed, all stored data as well as the
time and date settings are lost. If necessary, use the printer
DPU-414, CP-10 or CP-11 to print out settings and data be-
fore changing the battery. After replacement, set the clock
and date again, as described on page 24.
The backup battery serves to maintain stored data and to
power the internal clock. Since this is not mandatory for
measurements, sound pressure level measurement and fre-
quency analysis are possible also without the backup bat-
tery.
Replacing the backup battery (lithium battery)
1. Turn power to the unit off.
2. Remove the old lithium battery.
3. Wait at least two minutes, and then insert the new lithium battery.
Note
If you insert the new battery within two minutes after remov-
ing the old battery, the unit may not operate correctly the
next time it is turned on.
4. Turn power to the unit on. The unit will come on with the factory default settings
(page 34).
