Using Battery Power
You can operate the oscilloscope continuously for approximately two
hours from the rechargeable battery pack. A triangle icon in the
display ( ) shows when the battery is in use, a power-plug icon
(
) shows when line power is connected, and a gauge icon
( )shows the charge level in the battery. The oscilloscope turns
off automatically when the battery runs low; the screen may turn
white a few minutes before the automatic shutdown.
NiCad batteries appear to lose capacity if not allowed to occasional-
ly discharge completely. Every few months, run your oscilloscope
until it shuts down and then recharge the battery completely to keep
your battery pack at peak performance.
Refer to the General Safety Summary for information about proper
nickel-cadmium battery disposal.
