Handheld Transmitter
Battery Type
The 8297 RF handheld transmitter uses two AA alkaline batteries. The low battery light
will illuminate with approximately two hours of transmission time remaining before the
batteries are completely discharged. Due to the time-voltage characteristics of
rechargeable batteries, this time could be drastically reduced if rechargeable batteries are
used.
Replacing the Battery
The batteries can be replaced with any standard fresh AA alkaline batteries.
Turn the transmitter power off.
Remove two screws and the battery cover.
Remove the old AA batteries.
Insert the new AA alkaline batteries.
Replace the battery cover using the screws.
