AgRemote utility

Real-time clock battery

A lithium-ion battery in the receiver
powers the internal real-time clock
and so enables the receiver to get a
first fix faster. The battery has a life
of 7.5 years. When the battery fails,
the internal clock cannot keep
accurate time and the receiver may
take longer to output GPS positions.

Please contact your local Ag Leader Reseller to
get the batteries replaced. You cannot replace the
battery yourself.
