3.7. CALENDAR/HOURS

The time is stated in the format hh:mm:ss
The date in the format dd:mm:yyyy
The information about the date and the time disappears immediately after disconnecting
from the power supply – unplugging or total discharging of the batteries/accumulators or
disconnecting from USB. An exception are gauges fitted with a datalogger, where the date
and the time remain actual in the gauge without power supply for approx. 5 minutes.

3.8. INFO ABOUT THE INSTRUMENT

A part of the Info about the instrument is the type of the instrument, the pressure range of
the instrument, the serial number of the instrument and the version of the firmware and
also the language option. The option Factory setting returns by the confirmation YES all
settings to the values saved at the construction.

4. POWER SUPPLY AND CHARGING

4.1. POWER SUPPLY

PCE-PDA can be power supplied from two pieces of AA batteries or two pieces of AA
rechargeable accumulators. When inserting the batteries, it is necessary to observe the right
polarity, see the label placed at the bottom of the battery space. It is also possible to power
supply the gauge by means of a USB supply (5V and 500mA). Always only after the first
switch on of the gauge after changing batteries, the display with the choice of batteries
appears.
PAY ATTENTION TO THE PROPER CHOICE OF BATTERIES/ACCUMULATORS.
AN INCORRECT CHOICE COULD DAMAGE THE GAUGE.

4.2. CHARGING

Charging is done through the USB connector (18) on the bottom side of the gauge. The
supply voltage is 5V and the supply current max. 500mA. The battery state indicator (3)
situated in the upper part of the display indicates the power supply. In a proper feeding
cycle, the battery state indicator changes from "zero" to the full charge of the accumulators.
As soon as the accumulators are fully charged, the feeding current is switched to the keeping
current. Indication of this state is again displayed on the battery state indicator by flashing of
the last division of the battery icon. The battery state indicator (3) is active during charging
also after switching the PCE-PDA gauge off.
IT IS RECOMMENDED TO CHARGE ALWAYS BY THE WHOLE CHARGING CYCLE
(ca. 6 hours at the room temperature). THIS WILL PREVENT EARLY
DISCHARGE OF THE ACCUMULATORS.
