5700 Operation
If no external power is supplied and both internal batteries are drained,
none of the data that you have logged is lost. When internal or external
power is restored, the receiver restarts in the same state as when power
was lost. For example, if the receiver was logging data, the data file is
not corrupted, and when power is restored the receiver resumes
logging with the same settings as before.
The power supply that is supplied with the 5700 receiver charges the
receiver’s internal batteries while they are still in the receiver. To do
this, connect the power supply to the power/serial data cable, connect
the cable to Port 2 on the receiver, and connect the power supply to an
AC power source, as shown in Figure 3.2
