Power Supply

The DTR Model 8500 may be used for up to 10 hours on fully charged
®
NiCd batteries. The DTR may also be line supplied during measurements.
®
In this mode the DTR also recharges the NiCd batteries.
®
LOW BATTERY is displayed when the internal batteries approach low
voltage. When displayed, a limited number of measurements may still
be conducted, though we recommend recharging the DTR as soon as
®
possible. If the battery voltage drops too low, the DTR will lock out further
®
operation. In the lock-out mode, the DTR shuts down all functions until
®
AC power is applied and the battery recharged.
We recommend recharging the DTR overnight. Each time the DTR is
® ®
connected to AC power, a 14-hour recharge cycle begins. Repeat charging
of partially discharged batteries will not result in battery damage. During
the 14-hr cycle, the CHARGING indicator will glow continuously; following
this period, a pulse-trickle charge mode is entered and the indicator will
pulse on and off.
