Test-Um NT955 Series
Validator-NT Main Unit

When powered on, the Validator-NT reports the charging status at the top

of the screen under the battery icon. A green full battery icon indicates

the battery is fully charged. As the battery discharges, the percentage of

remaining charge is displayed in 10% steps. The battery icon changes

from green to amber when the battery reaches approximately 30% of its

charge capacity.

When the battery is Low, the battery icon will change to red and

begin to flash. An audible warning tone will sound when the battery

reaches approximately 10% of its charge capacity to notify the user

that in approximately three minutes, the Validator-NT will power down

automatically and save the current job.

Note: The battery must be fully charged the first time it is used to re-

port charging status. After one full charge, the batteries in the main unit

and the remote unit are interchangeable.

If the battery is replaced, it is necessary to start a new charge cycle by

either disconnecting the AC

adapter momentarily or pressing the Reset

Charge (RST CHRG) soft key (F1) on the Properties/Battery Info screen.

In addition to the charging status, additional information that is useful to

monitor the loss of capacity in the battery over time is displayed on the

Battery Properties screen.

Charging will continue when the Validator-NT is powered off but there is

no visual indication. The Validator-NT has various timeout conditions to

conserve battery life. The specific timeout values are adjustable in the

Setup, Shutdown Timeouts screen.
