Getting started

Installing batteries

Turn off the power before replacing the batteries.
Depleted batteries should be immediately removed from the
monotribe. Leaving depletedbatteries in the battery compartment
may cause malfunctions (the batteries may leak). You should also
remove the batteries if you don't expect to use the monotribe for an
extended period of time.
Don't mix partially-used batteries with new batteries, and don't mix
batteries of differing types.
1.
Detach the battery cover from the rear panel.
2.
Insert six AA batteries, taking care to observe the correct polarity
(+/- orientation). Use alkaline or nickel-metal hydride batteries.
3.
Reattach the battery cover.
The included battery is provided so that you can verify that the unit
is operating correctly; its lifespan may be shorter than normal.

Using an AC adapter

Connect the optional AC adapter to the DC9V jack.
You must turn off the power before connecting the AC adapter.
You must only use the specified AC adapter. Using any AC adapter
other than the specified model will cause malfunctions.

Battery level indication

At start-up
The step LEDs (p.15) indicate the remaining amount of battery pow-
er. If all LEDs are lit-up, the batteries are completely full. Fewer lit
LEDs mean that the battery level is correspondingly lower.
If an AC adapter is connected, the remaining battery amount will
not be shown correctly.
Both alkaline and nickel-metal hydride batteries are supported. In
order for the remaining battery amount to be detected and shown
correctly, you must use the Global menu (p.16) to specify the type
of batteries that you're using.
During operation
If the batteries are running low, the monotribe will warn you by blink-
ing the four part LEDs (p.14) simultaneously.
If the batteries run down completely, the step 1 LED will blink, and
then the power will turn off automatically.
It's not possible to stop the low battery warning; however, you will
be able to continue using the monotribe until the batteries have run
down completely.
Unsaved data will be lost, so save your data (p.16) if necessary.
