Replace Battery Message
The Replace Battery message has a format almost identical to the
Diagnostic message. If enabled by the user, the Replace Battery message
will be sent by the
SMARTONE when the battery charge level is at or
below the replace battery advisement level. The message will be
repeated at an interval configurable by the user for as long as the
battery remains below the advisement level. The default configuration
is for the Replace Battery message to be enabled and to be transmitted
once per day when the battery is low. The format of the Replace Battery
message is shown in table 9.
