At typical CR9000X current demand, the batteries are 100%
discharged at a system battery voltage of 10.5 V. Discharging
the batteries below this voltage damages the cells. As can be
seen from the above table, battery life expectancy decreases with
depth of discharge.
NOTE
CSI'S WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER BATTERIES
.
Avoid deep discharge states by measuring and monitoring the battery voltage
(BattVolt instruction) as part of the collected data and periodically checking
the voltage record to be sure the batteries and charging system are working
correctly.
