Battery Installation; Powering On/Off - Lectronics DCHT Quick Start Manual

Battery Installation

The transmitter is powered by two
AA batteries. Lithium batteries are
recommended for longest life.
The battery status circuitry
compensates for the difference
in voltage drop between alkaline
and lithium batteries across their
usable life, so it's important to
select the correct battery type in
the menu.
Because rechargeable batteries
run down quite abruptly, using the
Power LED to verify battery status
will not be reliable. However, it is
possible to track battery status
using the battery timer function
available in the receiver.
Push outward on the battery com-
partment door and lift it to open.
Slide door outward,
then lift up to open
Insert the batteries according to
the markings on the back of the
housing.
If the batteries are inserted incor-
rectly, the door will close but the
4
unit will not operate.
The battery contacts can be
cleaned with alcohol and a cotton
swab, or a clean pencil eraser. Be
sure not to leave any remnants of
the cotton swab or eraser crumbs
inside the compartment.

Optional Battery Eliminator
The transmitter can be powered
