Backup battery

The lithium battery on the mainboard powers the real-time clock (RTC) in the absence of power. When the battery starts to weaken, it loses voltage, and the server settings stored in CMOS RAM in the RTC (for example, the date and time) might be incorrect.

For a list of approved replacement batteries, contact your customer service representative or dealer.
