The built-in battery preserves the data in the CMOS-RAM and supplies
the real-time clock. The minimum battery life is 5 years, even under
unfavorable operating conditions. When the battery runs down, the
message "Change battery" is generated automatically.
We recommend you change the battery approximately every 4 years
as part of the regular maintenance work. A pre-assembled battery
including connector can be obtained directly from Bosch Rexroth.
If the "Change battery" message is detected too late, e.g. the real-time
clock stopped or shows the wrong date, data in the CMOS-RAM may
have already been lost. For this reason, after changing a battery,
always check data such as passwords that can be modified, parame-
ters in the system variables, recipe data sets and entries in the mes-
sage system.
To ensure that the data in the CMOS-RAM and the time are preserved,
it is possible to change the battery under operating voltage. Observe
the safety notes!
1. Remove the threaded bolts of the interfaces.
2. Remove the screws on the rear panel of the device and lift off the
housing.
3. Disconnect the connector from the battery and remove the dead bat-
tery.
4. Plug in the cable of the new battery.
5. Place the rear panel back onto the device.
6. Carefully tighten the screws of the rear panel and then the threaded
bolts of the interfaces.
To prevent short circuitry in the collection boxes, insulate the poles of
each battery with insulation tape or put each single battery into a plastic
bag.
You must always return old batteries to a dealer or to a returns depot
set up for this purpose by the public waste disposal body or a licensed
battery dealer for recycling. Only dispose of dead batteries in public or
commercial collection boxes. The battery is drained when the message
„Change battery" appears on the display of the device.
