Typewriter Power Supply
If Batteries or NiCd Battery Pack Becomes Weak During
Data Reception
If the typewriter batteries become weak during reception of data
from the personal computer, the alarm will sound on the S-15 and
S-16, and the display on the Typestar 7 or the S-16 will change to
let you know that the batteries need replacing.
• When the batteries of the S-15 or S-16 become weak, an alarm
will sound the same as when you use the machine as an ordinary
typewriter. For an explanation of the alarm signals, see the oper-
ating instructions for the S-15 or S-16.
• When the batteries of the Typestar 7 become weak, the display
will alternately show the message "ON LINE" and the battery
change indicator symbols ''
ODDO . ''
• On the S-16, the display will alternate between the messages "ON
LINE" and "LITHIUM
[J "
to indicate that the lithium battery
should be replaced.
When the batteries become weak, either replace the set of dry bat-
teries, or recharge the NiCd battery pack. See the operating instruc-
tions for the typewriter for directions on how to change the
batteries.
Changing the Batteries During Data Transfer
The contents of the buff er will be lost if the typewriter is stopped
and the batteries replaced during data transfer. It is recommeded
that the AC adapter be used to power the typewriter when it is used
as a printer.
