Because a battery may leak potentially dangerous chemicals if stored
improperly, store batteries as follows:
Estimating Battery Life
When the battery is about 95 percent discharged, the controller provides the
following warnings:
• On the front of the controller, the BATTERY LED turns on (solid red).
• A minor fault occurs (type 10, code 10).
To prevent the battery from leaking potentially dangerous chemicals, replace
the battery at least as often as:
To estimate how long the battery will support the memory of the controller:
1. Determine the temperature (° C) 1 in. below the DriveLogix controller.
ATTENTION
!
Store batteries in a cool, dry environment. We recommend
25° C with 40% to 60% relative humidity. You may store
batteries for up to 30 days between -45° to 85° C, such as
during transportation. To avoid possible leakage, do not
store batteries above 60° C for more than 30 days.
ATTENTION
!
To prevent possible battery leakage, even if the BATTERY
LED is off, replace the battery according to this schedule:
If the temperature 1 in.
below the controller is:
