CHARGING THE BATTERY (ROUTINE)
1. Connect the power supply to the IRMA TruPoint charger and secure the
screw-on locking mechanism.
2. Connect the wall cord to the power supply, and plug the wall cord into an
electrical outlet (110 VAC/60Hz or 220 VAC/50Hz).
3. Insert the battery into the battery charger. The battery should ‘click’ into
the charger when properly inserted. The yellow light indicates that the
battery is charging.
4. The green LED on the charger will begin to blink (blinks for 30 seconds,
off for 4 seconds, blinks for 30 seconds, etc.) when the battery is at
approximately 90% capacity. When the battery is at 100% capacity, the
green light blinks continuously. Batteries should remain in the charger
until the green LED blinks continuously.
5. Leave a fully charged battery in the charger until it is needed for use. The
charger will continue to top-off a fully charged battery, ensuring that it is
at 100% capacity when needed for use in the analyzer.
Caution:
• Do not remove battery from charger until it is fully charged; doing so
may result in less than optimal battery performance.
