Chapter 4: Using the RX‐1 to Monitor a Patient
Battery Charging and Status
Battery status is provided on the display in most operating modes.
Once the battery icon displays 0 bars, the device allows for one communication attempt with the server to indicate that
the battery is near the end of its life then the device will stop acquiring data. It is recommended that the device be
connected to a charger once the device displays 1 bar on the battery icon. Full charge will be reached in approximately 2
hours. Battery life for MCT mode is about 14 days.
Caution: Disconnect the lead wires from the patient electrodes before charging. Use only the charger provided with the
device to charge the battery.
