Once a low-battery error has been detected, it will take 5 days (at an ambient temperature of 25°C
before the battery fails assuming that power has been supplied at least once a day. Battery failure and
the resulting loss of data in RAM can be delayed by ensuring that the CPU Unit power is not turned
OFF until the battery has been replaced.
*1 The Battery Error Flag (A402.04) will turn ON only if the Detect Low Battery parameter in the PLC Setup has
been set to detect a low-battery error. If this setting has not been made, battery errors will not be detected.
*2 The battery will discharge faster at higher temperatures, e.g., 4 days at 40°C and 2 days at 55°C.

Replacement Procedure

Use the following procedure to replace the battery when the previous battery has become completely
discharged.
Precautions for Safe Use
We recommend replacing the battery with the power OFF to prevent the CPU Unit's sensitive
internal components from being damaged by static electricity. The battery can be replaced with-
out turning OFF the power supply. To do so, always touch a grounded piece of metal to discharge
static electricity from your body before starting the procedure.
After replacing the battery, connect a Programming Device and clear the battery error.
1.
Turn OFF the power to the CPU Unit.
If the CPU Unit has not been ON, turn it ON for at least five minutes and then turn it OFF.
