    Battery Life and Replacement Overview The MVP-5100 and MVP-5150 use a MVP-BP-5X Battery Pack Lithium-Polymer microbattery kit (FG5966-27) for power away from a standard power source. The battery can be deep-charged up to 300 times before it loses the ability to retain more than 70 percent of its charge, at which time battery replacement should be considered.
  • Page 162: Important Notes

    Proper Battery Maintenance To insure maximum performance and reliability of your AMX Wireless Touch Panel, please insure that a full charge is performed every 3 months if not used regularly. If a battery is left uncharged beyond this time frame, it may result in premature battery lifespan degradation and will require replacement.
