If you attempt to start the OmniScan MX using batteries with an insufficient charge, the power indicator light will flash red for approximately three seconds. To operate the OmniScan MX you will need to replace the batteries or plug in the DC power adaptor.
The battery charge is critically low (less (blinking) than 10 %). A beeping noise sounds when there is no spare battery available. Yellow The OmniScan MX is being powered externally through the DC adaptor. Dark The external power supply is green insufficient.
Close the battery compartment door. The batteries are recharged inside the OmniScan MX when it is connected to a DC power adaptor. Connecting an adaptor automatically starts the recharging process. The batteries can also be recharged using an optional external charger.
“New battery procedure” on page 96. If you do not plan to use the OmniScan MX on battery power within three or more weeks, charge the batteries to between 40 % and 80 % capacity (three or four bars on the battery charge indicator), and then remove and store the batteries in a clean, cool, and dry place.
(approximately 300 cycles). Please note that even a partial discharge and recharge of the battery accounts for one cycle. To maximize battery life, before recharging, always run the OmniScan MX on battery power until it shuts down, or until you get a low-battery warning.
Do not expose a battery to moisture or rain; doing so could cause an electric shock. • Only use the OmniScan MX or an external charger approved by Olympus to charge the batteries. • Do not recharge a battery unless the indicators light up when the capacity check button on the battery is pressed.

Preventative Maintenance The OmniScan MX does not have many moving parts, and therefore only requires minimal preventative maintenance. Simply perform regular inspections to keep the OmniScan MX in proper working order.
9.2.2 LCD Screen Protector Cleaning Never use abrasive products or powerful solvents to clean the OmniScan MX screen. Clean the screen using a damp cloth moistened with windshield washer fluid. If you do not have windshield washer fluid, use a standard, evaporating glass cleaner. If necessary, remove any paper-towel residue with a soft-bristle brush.
The OmniScan MX does not start. Possible solutions • Check that the DC power adaptor is connected to both the OmniScan MX and a power outlet with the proper voltage. Use only the adaptor supplied with the OmniScan MX. •...
• Shut down the OmniScan MX and wait for it to cool. The internal charger is equipped with a temperature monitor to prevent batteries from being recharged when the internal temperature is too high.
• Check that the memory card was inserted correctly into its slot. CAUTION The OmniScan MX memory card slot could be damaged if you force the memory card the wrong way. • If the memory card was removed while the OmniScan MX was active, especially if data was being read or written at the time, data corruption may have occurred.
The most common factors are incomplete data transfer, electrostatic discharges, and removal of the memory card while the OmniScan MX is active. Oftentimes, the only way to fix the problem is to delete the problem file(s), or to reformat the memory card.
Make sure that your monitor supports the VGA standard. The VGA standard requires the removal of pin 9 from the video connector. While the OmniScan MX meets this requirement, some monitors do not. If pin 9 has not been removed from your monitor connector, you will need to remove it.
On the memory card, search for a directory named Run the Fix for old BIOS. Run the Undo Fix.cmd program. This removes incompatible files. Insert the memory card into the OmniScan MX, and then start the OmniScan MX using the usual start-up procedure. Solution 2 Correct the BIOS version as follows: ...
(!) displayed, but nothing else. This operation resets the CMOS parameters. Take the memory card out of the OmniScan MX and reinsert it into the reader. Search for the directory named Run the Fix for old BIOS. Run the Undo Reset CMOS.cmd program to remove unnecessary files on the memory card.
