Low Power Operation - LogTag Recorders UTREL30-16 Product User Manual

Powering the UTREL30-16
Using a commercially available 5V USB power supply (5W)
l
When supplied externally, the power symbol shows on the display.
Supplying the unit with external power allows you to use the internal AAA batteries
as a backup should external power be unavailable.
When you remove the external USB power the display briefly turns off.
Some low-quality USB power supplies are unable to deliver sufficiently stable
power to the UTREL30-16. Please use a power supply from a reputable source
that carries a UL or CE marking.
If the logger detects an unstable power source, the power symbol
and the buzzer will sound.
In this case, the logger will not be powered by the external supply, but
remain powered by the AAA batteries instead. Please remove the supply and
replace it with one of better quality.
