Non-Normal Operation - ACD MiniBump Instruction Manual

VI. NON-NORMAL OPERATION
If either the batteries or the generating source become depleted, or the
generating source is removed from the MiniBump, the instrument enters
a non-normal operating condition and the RED LED will turn on.
Under a low battery condition, the RED LED will begin to flash. If the
low battery condition occurs during power up, the RED LED will flash for
approximately 30 seconds and then the instrument will power down. If the
low battery condition occurs after start up, the RED LED will begin
flashing and the instrument will continue to run for approximately 30
seconds before power down. It is recommended to replace depleted
batteries with two 'AA' heavy duty alkaline batteries for maximum
operating life.
If the source becomes depleted or is removed, the RED LED will light
continuously. If the depleted source condition occurs during power up,
the RED LED will remain on for approximately 30 seconds and then the
instrument will power down. If the depleted source condition occurs
after start up, the RED LED will light and the instrument will continue to
run for approximately 30 seconds before power down.
If the source has been depleted, it should be removed and replaced
with a new generating source. Please refer to the section on source
life for proper instructions on replacing the generating sources. If
the source has not been depleted, there may be a faulty electrical
connection between the source and the instrument. Remove the
source and inspect the pins protruding from the source and the
sockets in the source chamber. Remove any debris and or corrosion
that may be present and retest the source. If either the pins or
sockets become damaged or non-repairable, replace the source
chamber and/or the source.
