details of operation. The most relevant sections
of the CSM1 manual are Section 3 (Getting

4. POWERING WITH BATTERY

The MCR1 is supplied with an AC adapter
which allows the unit to be powered from a

110/120V, 60Hz supply. The output from this
transformer is 8V DC (nominal).

If required the adapter can be replaced by
cutting the cable and connecting a battery in the
range of 6-20 VDC, (e.g. a 12 V battery). The
conductor with the white stripe or raised ridge is
the positive connection. The battery must be
capable of supplying 100 mA peak current.
