Configuration and Installation

Contact your AMX dealer before you replace the lithium battery and verify that they have a current copy of the AXCESS program for your AXB-IRS4. This will avoid any inadvertent loss of data or a service outage.

You will need a flat-blade tool (non-conducting) that can be slipped under the lithium battery to pry it up and out of the socket.

Static electricity can damage electronic circuitry. Before removing the lithium battery from the enclosure, discharge any accumulated static electricity from your body by touching a grounded metal object.

1.Discharge the static electricity from your body.

2.Unplug all cables from the AXB-IRS4.

3.Remove the AC-RK2 and AXB-IRS4 from the mounting rack. Otherwise, go to step 4.

4.Remove the five pan-head screws on the top of the AXB-IRS4 enclosure.

5.Pull the two enclosure halves apart and set the bottom portion of the enclosure on a flat surface.

6.Locate the battery on the circuit card.

7.Carefully pry the battery out of its socket and insert the new battery. Write down the next replacement date on a sticker or label by adding 5 years to the replacement date, and then attach it to the bottom of the AXB-IRS4.

8.Plug all cables back into the AXB-IRS4.

9.Place the top portion of the enclosure back onto the bottom portion. Then, refasten the five pan-head screws.

10.Reconnect the cables removed for battery replacement.

There is a danger of explosion if you replace the battery incorrectly. Replace the battery with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used battery according to the manufacturer's instructions. Never recharge, disassemble, or heat the battery above 212 °F (100 °C). Never solder directly to the battery or expose the contents of the battery to water.
