b) The procedure for switching on and off
Switching the unit on and off is very simple, and the process effectively prevents
accidentally changing the backer's status. This is the procedure:
Locate the SET button on the SensorSwitch and hold it pressed in until the cent-
ral LED glows red. Now press buttons I and II in turn; the backer is now switched
on. Repeat the procedure to switch off: hold the SET button pressed in, wait until
the central LED glows red, then confirm by pressing buttons I and II in turn.
Once switched on, the backer can only be turned off again using the switch unit.
Intermittent contacts or interruptions in the power supply cannot cause the ba-
cker to be switched off permanently.
c) Setting the battery type
The default battery type setting is Lithium Polymer. If you wish to use two-cell
LiPo/LiIon packs, you therefore need to make no changes at this point. For all
other battery types adopt this procedure:
- Switch both batteries on.
- Hold the SET button pressed in, and watch the central LED on the SensorSwitch.
- The LED will light up, and then go out again after a brief period.
- After a few seconds the LED emits one brief red flash. If you now release the
button, you have selected the battery type LiPo/LiIon.
- If you allow the LED to flash twice before releasing the button, you have selec-
ted five-cell NiCd/NiMH as the battery type.
- If you hold the button pressed in until the LED has flashed three times, the vol-
tage indicator is prepared for LiFe (A123) packs.
