Field Replacement of Batteries

To access the batteries, remove the four retaining screws holding the bottom plate to the OMP-MODL assembly. The battery connector can then be unplugged and the batteries be replaced by popping them out of the holders and reinstalling new batteries. Align the batteries with the positive terminal toward the holder end marked with a red washer. Reconnect the battery connector, adjust the position of the foam spacer and fasten the bottom plate back onto the OMP-MODL assembly with the four side screws.

Note that the batteries can be accessed by removing any level of the 4 side access screws on the ML-BATT module, however it is typically easiest to remove the 4 on the metal bottom plate.

Alkaline D-cells are recommended for use in the OMP- MODL as they contain significantly more energy than standard or `heavy-duty’ cells and will provide substantially longer recording capability. Depending on the Program Net within the OMP-MODL, a fresh set of alkaline D-cells can power the OMP-MODL for up to 4 weeks of logging.
