Battery Status LED Indicator

Alkaline, lithium or rechargeable batteries can be used to power the
transmitter. The type of batteries in use are selectable in a menu on the
LCD.
When alkaline or lithium batteries are being used, the LED labeled BATT
on the keypad glows green when the batteries are good. The color
changes to red when the they are nearing the end of life. When the LED
begins to blink red, there will be only a few minutes remaining.
The Power/Function LED on the top panel will mirror the keypad LED
unless the programmable switch is set to Mute, and the switch is
turned on.
The exact point at which the LEDs turn red will vary with battery brand
and condition, temperature and power consumption. The LEDs are
intended to simply catch your attention, not to be an exact indicator of
remaining time.
A weak battery will sometimes cause the Power LED to glow green im-
mediately after the transmitter is turned on, but it will soon discharge to
the point where it will turn red or the unit will turn off completely.
Rechargeable batteries give little or no warning when they are depleted.
If you wish to use these batteries in the transmitter, the most accurate
way to determine runtime status is by testing the time provided by a
particular battery brand and type, then using the BatTime function to
determine remaining runtime.
NOTE: Refer to the Main Menu and Setup Section of your
manual for BatTime details.
