Setting the Battery Charge
After installing the battery pack into the Allegro, the battery charge
percent must be set. This allows the Allegro to know the pack’s
charge status. When you insert the battery pack into the Allegro for
the fi rst time, the charge status is unknown to the Allegro.

To set the charge status of the battery pack after you install the
battery pack for the fi rst time, complete the following:

Turn on the Allegro by pushing the On/Off button.

As MS DOS loads, no action is required until it gets to the Battery
Change Detected
screen.

The Arrows key move your selection between the Battery Charge
Percent
and the Battery Charge Capacity.

F1 moves the highlighted selection up.

F2 moves the highlighted selection down.

ESC exits the Battery Change Detected screen and saves your
settings. Pressing the ENTER key does this also.

Set the charge percent to 10 by pressing on F1 or F2 to move the
percent.

The capacity of the NiMH battery we have provided with the
Allegro is 3800 mAh. The capacity default is set at 3800.

If you are using a different brand of NiMH battery pack and are
unsure of your batteries capacity, check the label on the battery to
discover the charge capacity. If it is not 3800 mAh set the charge
capacity to the correct mAh.
