Battery Installation

The Model 511 operates on four (4) 1.5 volt "AA" alkaline batteries. Other battery types
should not be used with the Model 511.
WARNING: Use of improper batteries may present a risk of fire or explosion.
To install batteries into the monitor:
1. Locate the battery compartment cover on the back side of the monitor.
2. Press the "OPEN" area of the compartment cover, slide the cover in the direction
indicated by the arrow, and remove the cover.
3. Install new batteries according to the "+" and "-" symbols on the bottom of the
battery compartment and on each battery.
WARNING: Alkaline batteries may explode or leak if recharged, inserted improperly or
disposed of in a fire. Do not open batteries.
4. Slide the battery cover back into place. The cover latches into place when properly
seated.

External DC Supply

The Model 511 can be powered by an external DC supply. The supply plugs into the small
DC power jack located on the lower right side of the monitor. The external supply draws its
power from the mains. Both 105-130 VAC and 230 VAC (50/60Hz) versions are available.
When the external power supply is used, the batteries are disconnected from the monitor
internally, however the battery icon displays a fully charged condition. While powered from
the external supply the battery icon does not reflect the condition of the batteries. When
changing operation from the external supply to battery (external supply disconnected)
allow the monitor to run for one minute, after which the icon will reflect the true battery
charge.
WARNING: Use only Novametrix supplied external power supplies. The use of other
external power sources may jeopardize patient safety, or may damage the Model 511.
