When the fiber optic cables are not attached, always cover the
probe connectors with the protective plastic covers supplied with
the unit, or with similar material. This prevents dirt or other
contaminants from entering the connector and causing
communication problems.

ARM/OFF
The ARM/OFF switch activates and deactivates the probe. In
the “ARM” position, its internal 3.6 VDC NiCd battery powers the
probe: in the “OFF” position, the probe is inactive. To prolong
battery life, set the ARM/OFF switch to “OFF” at the end of a test
sequence or when the probe is not in use.
Charger
A standard fast charger is supplied with the HI-
4453/FP5083/FP4083/FP2083. When charging is complete, the
fast charger acts as a trickle charger. The battery can be left on
this maintenance mode indefinitely and its performance will not
degrade.
