Battery Replacement

Purpose of the Battery
The Battery maintains the CPU Unit internal clock and the variables retained during power interruptions
while the main power supply is OFF. If the Battery is not installed or Battery voltage drops too low, the
internal clock will stop and the variables that are retained for power interruptions will be lost when the
main power supply goes OFF.
