Charging the Ni-Cd Battery Pack

At delivery, the Ni-Cd batteries may be empty and must be charged for 4 hours (test tool is off) to fill them completely. When fully charged, the batteries typically provide 4 hours of use at full brightness and 5 hours at normal brightness.

When battery powered, the battery indicator on the bottom of the screen informs you about the condition of the

battery. The battery symbols are: Figure 2-1. Charging the Battery Pack.

The battery symbol Manual background indicates that there are typically five minutes of operating time left.

Use the setup as shown in Figure 2-1 to charge the battery pack and power the instrument.

Turn the test tool off to charge the batteries more quickly.

Note

Figure 2-1. Charging the Battery Pack

The test tool uses a trickle charge for the batteries, so no damage can occur if you leave it charging for long periods, e.g., through the weekend.
