Station channel, firmware revision number and date, and whether or not the Base Station is
synchronized to another Base Station in the area.

18.3 Replacing Handheld Battery

To verify the battery is replaceable, look at
the revision number on the back of the unit
(Figure 28). If the assembly is REV 7 or
higher (after August 30, 2007), the battery
may be replaced in the field. Units built
before this date must be sent to Daktronics
to have a new battery installed.

After verifying the correct revision number, follow the steps below to replace the battery.

1. Remove the two Philips screws (one on the top and one on the bottom).
2. Separate the bottom half of the case from the top half.
3. Disconnect the 2-pin battery power cable from the main circuit board, and remove

the battery from the retaining clips (Figure 29).

4. Install new battery (Daktronics

part # BT-1032) into the retaining
clips and connect the 2-pin cable.

5. Close the case and tighten the

screws.

6. Charge the battery as needed

before first use.

Note: Please return used batteries to
a battery recycling center or battery
retailer for proper disposal.
