Method 3: ST-BTP Installed in an Active Touchpanel
This method is identical to method 2, except that the touchpanel is active (ON)
while charging. As a result, the time to fully charge a discharged ST-BTP can take
up to three hours.
Fully Discharging the ST-BTP
Due to the memory effect of nickel-cadmium (NiCad) cells, Crestron recommends
that the ST-BTP be fully discharged for every 25 charge/discharge cycles. The
ST-BTP can be fully discharged while in the touchpanel. A button to fully discharge
the touchpanel should be available within a designated screen design. This button
has a special software identity (reserve join number) and can be recreated and
programmed onto any page in the touchpanel project. Consult your Crestron dealer
if this feature cannot be located.
