Batteries

Because a battery may leak potentially dangerous chemicals if stored
improperly, store batteries as follows:

Estimating Battery Life

When the battery is about 95 percent discharged, the controller provides the
following warnings:

• On the front of the controller, the BATTERY LED turns on (solid red).
• A minor fault occurs (type 10, code 10).

To prevent the battery from leaking potentially dangerous chemicals, replace
the battery at least as often as:

To estimate how long the battery will support the memory of the controller:

1. Determine the temperature (° C) 1 in. below the DriveLogix controller.

ATTENTION

!

Store batteries in a cool, dry environment. We recommend
25° C with 40% to 60% relative humidity. You may store
batteries for up to 30 days between -45° to 85° C, such as
during transportation. To avoid possible leakage, do not
store batteries above 60° C for more than 30 days.

ATTENTION

!

To prevent possible battery leakage, even if the BATTERY
LED is off, replace the battery according to this schedule:

If the temperature 1 in.
below the controller is:
