work properly. The device is not properly
installed. Remove and re-install the device. (See Device Ports

Power Failures
You turn on your

nothing seems to happen. The installed primary battery is
completely discharged or there
is no optional second battery or
power adapter installed. Check the Status Indicator Panel to determine the
presence and condition of the batteries. (See Status
Indicator Panel on page 12 for more information)
Install a charged battery or a Power adapter.
The primary battery is installed
but is faulty. Use the Status Indicator panel to verify the presence
and condition of the batteries. (See Status Indicator
Panel on page 12 for more information) If a battery is
indicating a short, remove that battery and operate
from another power source or replace that battery.
