6.

If the EAGLE 2 is equipped with NiMH batteries and you wish to charge the
batteries, connect the charging cable at the front of the SDM-E2 to the
charging jack on the back of the instrument. The CHARGE LED will begin to
flash amber. If the batteries are fully charged, the CHARGE LED will become
solid green again after about 5 minutes. Typically a bump test or calibration will
be initiated before this happens. See “Charging an Instrument in a Docking
Station” on page 65 for a complete description of charging the EAGLE 2.

WARNING:

Do not plug the charger cable into a battery pack that contains alkaline
batteries. Do not attempt to charge alkaline batteries.

7.

Press and hold the POWER ENTER RESET button on the EAGLE 2 until you
hear a beep, then release it. The EAGLE 2 will begin its power up sequence. If
a successful connection between the EAGLE 2 and the SDM-E2 occurs, the
home screen will display at the end of the start up sequence. If the charge LED
was amber, it will begin to blink green.

NOTE:

The screen shown above applies to a standard 4-channel EAGLE 2. If
your EAGLE 2 has less than 4 channels, the inactive channels will not
appear in the above screen or in any screens where channels are
displayed. If your EAGLE 2 has a different gas combination, your gas
names and auto calibration values will be different. All screens in this
section assume a standard 4-channel EAGLE 2.

8.

Verify that the appropriate calibration gas cylinder is connected to the GAS 1
and GAS 2 fittings on the back of the SDM-E2. See “Connecting Calibration
Gas” on page 24 for calibration gas cylinder options and calibration gas
connection procedures.

9.

Connect the gas out to EAGLE 2 line to the inlet fitting on the EAGLE 2.
