    ANY charger, which cannot properly address the battery communication. This DIONIC 90 battery, because of its lithium ion chemistry, is unlike other video batteries you may have used. Special precautions and handling instructions are contained in this manual and should be strictly adhered to for safe and reliable operation.
  • Page 4: Introduction

    INTRODUCTION The development of this new DIONIC 90 battery system has been made possible through the incorporation of the pioneering InterActive technology of the Anton/Bauer Digital system with the very latest lithium ion cell formulations. Each DIONIC 90 battery features an on-board “fuel computer”...

    6. Individual Computer Testing – As with all Anton/Bauer batteries, each and every InterActive 2000 DIONIC 90 battery is individually tested to assure optimum capacity, voltage and overall quality. A serialized computer performance graph as confirmation of this testing is enclosed.
  • Page 6: Charging Dionic 90 Batteries

    Dionic 90 battery may be removed from the charger and discharged in either condition. •The Dionic 90 battery can remain on the charger until just prior to being used. The LifeSaver (STEADY GREEN charger LED indication) maintenance routine keeps the battery charged and ready for use. If the battery will not be used for an extended period (more than 60 days) see “Operating Guidelines”...
  • Page 7: Nominal Charge Times For Dionic 90

    NOMINAL CHARGE TIMES FOR DIONIC 90 Charge Level LED Indicators Dual 2722 (2 batteries simultaneously) InterActive 2000 PowerCharger (Quad/Dual – 2702/2701/2700) (Quad/Dual – 2401/2400) T2 (2 batteries simultaneously) Tandem 70 Twin (2 batteries simultaneously) TWQ (4 batteries simultaneously) Charge time can vary depending on age, condition and remaining capacity of each battery at the time it is placed on the charger.
  • Page 8 RealTime automatically calculates the load and displays capacity information and battery status at all times. Special electronics protect the lithium ion cells in the DIONIC 90 battery from damage and to ensure safe operation. These electronics work in conjunction with the Digital Battery electronics and will give the operator additional indications in the RealTime display of the battery’s status as...
  • Page 9 “INTERACTIVE” SEGMENT: When illuminated, it indicates the DIONIC 90 battery has completed its full charge routine. “RES” Bar: Is the last “Fuel Gauge” Bar and will start to flash at 6% capacity and will continue to flash until EOD is reached.
  • Page 10 The battery will operate perfectly normal while awaiting a “learning” cycle. Rather than relying on an “assumed” capacity, as with some imitation fuel gauges, the DIONIC 90 battery relies on the Digital Battery electronics to update capacity information as the battery sees different operating conditions and ages normally.
  • Page 11: Realtime Display Indications

    LCD will flash at a once per second rate. This can occur, for example, if a cold halogen light =/>75 watts is turned on. When the over-load condition is removed, the display will return to normal. If the DIONIC 90 battery is...
  • Page 12: Lcd Icons

    • When the battery is completely discharged the LCD will flash the 15 minute icon and the ‘RES’ bar until the battery is returned to a charger. • If the protection electronics detect a low battery voltage condition (any one cell reaches roughly 2.5Vdc or approximately 10V battery voltage), the LCD sidebars will flash until the battery is returned to a charger.

    3. DO NOT LEAVE A BATTERY ATTACHED TO A CAMERA/CAMCORDER during transit or storage. “Keep warm” circuitry in the camera can drain the battery, because the DIONIC 90 battery has specialized circuits which will not allow a battery to over...
  • Page 14 Anton/Bauer publishes a comprehensive “Video Battery Handbook” to help you further understand the care and use of video batteries. This guide is available at no charge by contacting Anton/Bauer at 1-800-422-3473 or 203-929-1100 or fax 203-929-9935. It can also be downloaded from the...
  • Page 15: Service

    In the event a DIONIC 90 battery fails to deliver acceptable performance, it must be returned to the Anton/Bauer. No other facility is qualified and equipped to service the InterActive 2000 DIONIC 90 batteries and calibrate the electronic components and sensors. Any attempt by the user or any other unauthorized...
  • Page 16: Precautions

    PRECAUTIONS Do not expose this battery to high temperatures (above 50°C/120°F). This includes storage in direct sunlight , in cars in hot weather, or in close proximity to heating devices. This may cause electrolyte leakage, impaired performance and shortening of battery service life. When not using the battery for prolonged periods, the DIONIC 90 battery should be charged to approximately 50% capacity and removed from the charger.
  • Page 17: Dionic 90 Battery Specifications

    DISCHARGE TEMPERATURE STORAGE TEMPERATURE DIONIC 90 may be used to power both camera and on camera light however its maximum cold halogen lighting load is restricted to 50 watts. Routine use of a battery at discharge rates greater than the recommended operating range can reduce overall service life.
